On screen: Armadillo Aerospace completes Lunar Lander Challenge, Level 2

Way freakin' cool. I'm a couple days behind noticing this because I've been travelling, but it's probably news to a lot of people.

Y'know, that's really kind of pretty, and impressive as all heck. Oh, wait, the video is on YouTube. Nevermind... I meant "FAKE!!!1!"

Bonus points for the post title, too. I didn't actually know there was another X-prize, much less several, for the moon/space. I really should start following different blogs. (I know everything I need to know about copyright abuse, the evils of DRM, surveillance society, and steampunk to last me a while, anyway. Quick: guess which newsblog I read!) Good grief, we might actually manage to do something useful outside of near orbit before I die. Who'da thunk it?
