In awe of the Gifts of the Universe....


That's beautiful.

I believe this is the only competition like it in the world. It's pretty amazing to see these kids operate. There is a lot of cynicism regarding today's youth, but seeing the hard work and ingenuity here, I see a glimmer of optimism concerning the future.

Rovers should work in bad weather. Hell just consider that another obstacle.

And of course, the first rover I watch... runs into trouble... guy hops out and muscles it through while that fatty girl just rides along in the back.

I'm by no means an expert, but Auburns rover looks as though it may win this thing. Very legit.

I'm not watching very hard but I look over at it when I can... It's pretty awesome. Wish I had done something like that growing up.

Assume this means my dad isn't getting much work done today at MSFC

Edit: Looks like this is actually at the Space and Rocket Center.

Was watching team Russia and they have that thing geared so bad they cant make it up the hill... Their legs are going so fast, but there's nothing behind it.

I was just thinking that. There was no way they had enough muscle to get up that hill, but they finally did.
