Winner named in lunar lander X Prize contest

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A team of California rocketeers has won a $1 million prize in a simulated lunar landing contest backed by NASA.
The X Prize Foundation said Monday that Mojave, Calif.-based Masten Space Systems had a better landing accuracy than was achieved by Armadillo Aerospace of Rockwall, Texas, which got $500,000 for second place.
The teams flew robotic rockets that had to rise more than 160 feet, stay aloft for at least 180 seconds while traveling to a rocky landing pad, and then fly back to the starting point.
The flight profile simulates what would be required to descend from lunar orbit, land on the moon and then lift off again to return to lunar orbit.
NASA put up $2 million in prizes for the Northrop Grumman Lunar Lander Challenge as an incentive to spur development of technology by space entrepreneurs.
In a less-demanding lower level of the competition, Armadillo was first and won $350,000 while Masten got $150,000 for second place.
A father-son team called Unreasonable Rocket had unreasonable luck with two rockets during the weekend in Cantil, Calif. One rocket dubbed Blue Ball ran out of fuel in the lower level challenge. Its second rocket, Silver Ball, which was intended for the top level, was wrecked in a test while tethered to a crane.
Andrew Petro, NASA's Centennial Challenge program manager at NASA headquarters in Washington, D.C., said in a press release late Monday that the contest had the intended effect.
"These companies have demonstrated reusable vehicles with rapid turnaround and a surprising degree of precision in flight, and they have done all this at a much lower cost than many thought possible," he said.
NASA will present $1.65 million in prizes on Thursday. Armadillo's first-place award in the lower level competition was presented last year.
The X Prize Foundation managed the contest while Northrop Grumman provided support.
