The X-Prize Cup - X-Prize Teams -
« on: October 24, 2007, 10:57:32 AM »
Guys the XPC is on the horizon so i thought id start a thread!

Some Qs to get it going:

What has happened to all the teams from the Ansari X-Prize?

Do people really believe in commercial spaceflight activities?

Did NASA really screw Rocketplane Kistlers chances by showing little enthusiasm in commercial spaceflight?

Is anyone going? (Would be great to see some pics)

Anyone got any ideas on where the older teams are?

I see ARCA (Romanian XPrize entrant) are still active and have done a nice interview at:

This interview goes to show though that funds are an issue with people. A Good read for the space travel enthusiast though 

Starchaser have moved to the US but seem more interested in rooms than rockets!

Aside from the negativity the XPC should be amazing this year! one of the highlights of the calendar!  :P
