Team FREDNET and Team Prometheus' Contributions to X-Prize Team Prometheus initially set-out to win X-Prize independently, but joined Team Frednet when we realized the amount of funding needed to win the competition. Team Frednet has commissioned us to construct prototypes of their Lunar Lander, which is designed to win the Google Lunar X-Prize! It is a tremendous honour to have joined their efforts and put our talents to competitive use! Team Prometheus Members are bringing low-cost space technology within the grasp of all mankind similar to the way the Greek god, Prometheus, brought fire to mankind. Our Team includes talented individuals who are working together to be the developers of low cost aerospace equipment, low cost rocketry, satellites, and low cost space expeditions. Members are devoted to making space technology more accessible to all of humanity, developing the means of reaching far beyond our Earth, expanding space as the new frontier, allthewhile endeavoring for the betterment of all mankind. Currently, Team Prometheus is participating in competitions that harmonize with member values; such contests include the "N-Prize" as well as collaboration with Frednet on the "X-Prize" space competition. |
