There is a contest called the Xprize that offers 10 Million dollars to the first comerical team to asseble a vechile that can cary 3 people into space. Turn around and do it again in 2 days. The idea is to get the best and brightest of the world to help make space travel more of a reality. Hope that this race will help create technolgy for cheap, efficent and reusable space craft to carry people to space. Sadly for gamers John's team does not stand much of a chance to win as one group is really close and John's last rocket test crashed.

So did my Doom3 yesterday.jb wrote:... and John's last rocket test crashed.
I have this picture in my head of EPIC investing into space travel, too. Imagine their first manned missile go into space and go boom. I know someone who's comment will be "That's EPIC's fault."
