Getting involved

Hey students and teachers - the Google Lunar X PRIZE is for you, too! We have ways for students to get involved without joining a team directly, so please use this forum to find out more information on our Google Lunar X PRIZE education activities and watch it for announcements of events and programs.

Teachers - are you interested in getting your classes involved? Watch for announcements of mini-competitions for students and for classroom activities. You can find some of these on the main Google Lunar X PRIZE website under the Education tab, and additional activities are on their way!

For our friends in college and grad school (and their professors) – we’ve heard some of you are lucky enough to be assigned projects related to the Google Lunar X PRIZE. We want to hear about those, too! This forum is for you to discuss your projects, show off your work, and ask questions of your fellow students and the GLXP teams.

Join the JURBAN Team

The JURBAN team is especially interested in having students join our team. No need to come to Baltimore, MD because the internet is awesome :) We plan to win the $1 million bonus prize for being the team that demonstrates the greatest attempts to promote diversity in the field of space exploration.

We have a 15 year old developing a spectrometer to find water on the Moon (Extra $1 million), multiple high school student doing orbital mechanics and working out $16 million launch contracts with Space Flight Services.

I can be reached at 443-902-2382 or at CEO@solarsystemexpress.com

Greetings, I am on the media team for the Lunar Lions. Here is one of our productions http://youtu.be/i1M2NyFEbBE

As time goes on I hope that our documentation leads to a better understanding of the up and coming space industry.

Jupiter

History has recorded that on the night of January 7, 2153 (the reign of Akathodsarod) Galilei Galileo at the University of Padua in Italy. Saw three small bright dots appear near the surface of Jupiter, with the second spot in the East. And the other one is on the west Galileo thought it was stellar. But the following night. He was seen as a bright spot in all three points. Have appeared in the west end. And two nights later. He saw a bright spot just two points only. In the east. Of Jupiter, Galileo realized that he saw was a bright spot. These moons of the planet for Thurs, chopped fine Likewise We are familiar with the moon. Is a satellite of the Earth. Look monitoring deliberating. Later, Galileo discovered the moons. Additional satellites of Jupiter, Galileo was called first. Be the first to see the moon. Of the planet Earth and not because of the god Jupiter, Jupiter has a paramour 4 people named Europa, Io, Ganymede and Callisto Galileo was named after the goddess of the moon, all four of these.

The discovery of moons in the solar more. Took another 45 years so successful because the technology to build a telescope. Observed for the slow progress, but in the year 2198 (the reign of the Kings net) Christiaan Huygens, the Dutch astronomer. I saw the moon named Titan, Saturn's telescope Huygens lenses have a diameter of 2 inches and a capacity to see more cameras that Galileo used in addition to the moon, the largest of Saturn and Huygens also as a person. first to be found. Saturn is surrounded by a ring.
In those days there Huygens rival astronomer Giovanni Domenico Cassini was an Italian because Cassini is a name of the moon, Iapetus, Rhea, Tethys and Dione Saturn in the year 2127 (the reign of King Narai the Great). using a telescope with a length of 35 meters and a telescopic camera Cassini has seen the gap between the rings of Saturn. Which today is called the Cassini Division.
Telescope technology has evolved quite a star for Wiliam Herschel's Anglican Church has invented the reflecting telescope up. Using a concave mirror with a diameter of 7 inches long for light. With this telescope. He discovered the planet Uranus in March 2324 (the reign of King Taksin) and 6 years later, Herschel has developed a high-performance camera even further. Met with Oberon and Titania, moon of the planet Uranus name, even though the year 2332 is a big bloody revolution in France, but Herschel was still searching for the moon to normal. I discovered two moons of Uranus to the moon is Enceladus and Mimas (during the reign of the Great Blue Buddha).
In 2379 the world was excited about the news of the new planet Neptune by French astronomer Urbain Le Verrier. And after only a few months, the British beer merchant William Lassell much interest in astronomy. I see the stars, moon Triton Neptune (the reign of Rama), and he also found a moon of Saturn and the Moon Hyperion name of Ariel and Umbriel Uranus with stars in the next 3 years.
In those days Mars was a planet known to the human one. But was not seen at all in spite of its moons Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune all have moons and stars all When the astronomers. This disassociation issues widely imperfections American astronomer Asaph Hall. Everything is set to search the moons of Mars. And with the support of his wife. He has 26-inch telescope at the Observatory Naval Observatory in Washington shines Mars in the year 2460, a time when Mars is close to Earth as possible. And he saw the moon Deimos a year on 11 August 2420 (the reign of King Rama V), and six days later he saw the moon Phobos II Mars

No Jupiter and its moons. Jupiter's moon Europa called grinding.

The world must wait for up to 282 years to discover that Jupiter has moons over four lunar moon because in the year 2435 Edward Emerson Barnard, American astronomer has discovered Amalthea, the fifth moon of the Jupiter. By using the 36-inch telescope at Lick Observatory in California, and this is the last moon of Jupiter can be seen with the naked eye.

Because the moon is normally small. And less bright. The remote makes it hard to see. Search techniques, therefore the moon must be modified to use photographic film photographic film can accumulate because the light from the moon. It is not enough for a film. This is a technique that uses an American astronomer William Pickering. To find Saturn's moon Phoebe's name in the year 2441 (the reign of King Rama V) and the Pickering discovered Phoebe, then, astronomers have turned to photography technique to find the moon.
In the year 2447 Charies Dillon Perrine American astronomer. The moons of Jupiter and Elara name Himalia and again three years later, PJ Melotte England saw more of the Jupiter moon called Pasiphae.

Perrine has led to the success of American astronomer Seth Nicholson. Turned their attention to find the moon in the solar system seriously. Until he found the moon named Sinope, Lysithea, Carme and Ananke in the year 2457-2458 and the other 33 years later he found that Saturn's moon Titan has a dense atmosphere than Earth. And at the same time, American astronomer Gerard kuiper. I saw the moon Miranda name of the planet Uranus and the moon of the planet Neptune and Nereid name.
Although during the past 100 years. Be found at many major moons. But the astronomers also considered. To find the moon named Charon Pluto is the biggest star of the year, because in 2521 James Christy, American astronomer of the Observatory Naval Observatory to see the moons of Pluto, which also makes everyone baffled. I do not think Pluto is smaller stars are gravitationally to Charon orbit around it.

New era in the search for moons of the solar vigils valve. Began again in 2522, when the spacecraft Voyager I saw the moon Thebe of Jupiter. And the moon named Pandora, Promotheus's Atlas of Saturn, and in 2523 the Voyager II spacecraft sent by NASA Voyager I spacecraft was reported missing moons Metis and Adrastea name of Jupiter. And the moon named Pan of Saturn's moon of Uranus by 10 the name Puck, Portia, Juliet, Cressida, Rosalind, Belinda, Desdemona, Cordelia, Oppelia and Biance addition Voyager ll also see the moons of the planet Neptune. additional six satellites.
As these statistics moon, the planets in the solar system are as follows. Mercury has no moons. Venus has no moons. Earth's Moon 1 Moon Mars Moon 2 Moon Sun Thursday the Moon 61 Moon of Saturn's moon 31 moon stars Uranus's moon 22 moon stars Neptune's moon 11 moon and stars, Pluto's moon, one sun system. The moon is a 129.

The moon has increased statistical find more success. Especially during the years 2542-2546 because astronomers use digital light detector and a computer that meets the Moon 64 Moon 65 Moon of the Year in 2542 and never met before astronomers knew that in the future he will find this a lot more than the moon.
