Google Lunar X Prize

Hello Future Engineer,

I invite you to browse the website for Google Lunar X prize. Several teams are participating in this venture with interesting ideas of getting back to the moon, and the one that I know a bit more about is the Rocket City Pioneers. In particular, I had the good fortune to share the dinner table with Tim Pickens who is also the leader of the Rocket City Pioneers team (along with my students Caleb Boe and Bryan Sullivan, and Dr. John Gregory at Alabama Space Grant Consortium).

Reminds me of a dialogue from the movie, Forrest Gump, "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you gonna get!"
