With the recent announcement of AGI as one of the Google Lunar X PRIZE's Preferred Partners, LunaTrex had the opportunity to two representatives, Joseph Gangestad and Jeffrey Onken of Orbit Frontiers LLC, to the AGI Users' Conference in Schaumburg, Illinois last week. LunaTrex would like to personally thank AGI and it's CEO, Paul Graziani, for their generous offer to join the GLXP effort and help bring us all a little bit closer to the Moon. We also wish to extend a welcome to the two new teams that were announced at the AGI Conference, Independence-X and Omega Envoy; with every passing day GLXP grows into a more amazing and eclectic experience.
LunaTrex had the opportunity at the AGI Conference to experience first-hand the power of AGI's technology, including it's centerpiece software package STK and many other extraordinary technologies. Nearly every major space mission today uses some component of AGI's technology, and AGI's flexible licensing policies are sure to make STK a competitive option as LunaTrex moves forward with its operations architecture. AGI and all of the conference attendees were enthusiastic about GLXP, and LunaTrex made many exciting contacts...and in between sessions we even managed to squeeze in an interview with Will Pomerantz (looking forward to seeing that on the Launch Pad, Will!). We were honored to have the opportunity to hear speak in person Capt. Alan Bean—pilot, artist, astronaut, and 4th man to walk on the Moon. His exceptional and optimistic message about man's future in space and our responsibility to safeguard our own "Garden of Eden" here on Earth resonates with the GLXP's and Team LunaTrex's goals of expanding the frontiers of human experience beyond our own planet in an environmental and economically responsible fashion. With this growing field of both Preferred Partners and official teams, things are certainly looking up!
Best,
Joseph Gangestad
