EarthSpace Partners With Synergy Moon
On 21st December 2011, Synergy Moon and EarthSpace signed a memorandum of understanding to work together, amid others, to create outreach programs based on scientific but people-oriented education (SPOE): the creation of projects that combine arts and humanities with science and technology. Additionally, both companies will work to raise awareness of the Google Lunar X-Prize competition among African Nations.
