[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [qb] I'm happy it's being done, but I'm not happy in the method. SS1 came out of nowhere a couple years ago, and basically left all the much longer-running and public programs sitting in the dust - including the Canadian teams, which were out in front at the time. Some people are saying that the financier is bascially just throwing money at it to get it done first. Articles have revealed that the program has cost $20M, while the X Prize itself is worth $10M. Bleh. Mark [/qb][/QUOTE]Consider it a $10M kick in the ass to start a [i]real[/i] space race. Companies often spend more on just advertising of a new product with no direct results. [/QB][/QUOTE]
