Thanks, Craig!
I am back from my sabbatical, and I am ready to get to work. I am going to be focusing on two areas for our X-Prize entry. 1) I am going to be working on the overall mission profile to help keep the ideas flowing into creative and plausible plans. In that regard I will be working with every team. 2) I am going to build a working rover that will be controllable via the internet. As it gets closer to a usable state I will work with Tormod and creating a portal here at Hypo for observing it in action, and letting people take turns driving it around our initial lunar surface simulator (the area around my house in range of my wireless internet). The overall plan is going to be an ongoing work in progress with each team determining their own deadlines.
I will add details about the rover in the rover thread. I am also going to start a thread that summarizes all of our work to date so a person can see the current state of the mission profile without having to hunt all over to find it. I will work on that this week, but it is third behind school and work, so my progress may be slow.
If you are new to the site, or just finding this thread, you are more than welcome to join in the fun. That is all for now.
Bill
