HOW and WHY the Google Lunar X Prize could become a BOOMERANG for the
american pride!
Google has estabilished the INTERNATIONAL Lunar X Prize giving five
years of time to win a $20M to $30M prize.
Probably they suppose that, since USA (with NASA) is the world leader
in (manned and robotic) spaceflights, ONLY an american team can win
the prize!
But, the technology to develop a lunar rover and land it on the moon
is (now) known EVERYWHERE in the world, and, especially by three fast
growing (and strong political, military, industrial, commercial and
technological RIVALS) countries like Russia, India and China!
So, the Google Lunar X Prize could become a BOOMERANG for the american
pride (and the prestige of the american space industry) if a team from
these RIVAL countries will win the prize (maybe, also in LESS time!)
that (worse!) under the eyes of six billions peoples, thanks to Sat-
TVs and internet sites like Google and YouTube...
