Google's offering $30 million to the first individual or group (likely group) that can land a private moon rover on the moon. The following paragraph is taken from this article:
Are you working on anything right now? If you've got a little time to kill between now and 2012, you might want to win the newly announced $30 million prize announced by the X-Prize Foundation and Google. You'll need some engineering expertise as well; in order to take the prize home, you've got to land a rover on the Moon, capture some video, and drive around a little - maybe find some water ice while you're at it.
How long is it 'til we screw up the moon, then?

Maybe we could cheat and go up with that Russian launch and put a remote controlled car on the moon.

Where do business people fit in to this? Closest thing that does fit is a statistician, but an engineer bashes a statistician, not the other way round. |

P.S.: I like to write as well, and consistently have very high marks on papers I have to do in English. |
