"A British-led consortium has outlined its plans to land a robotic probe on the Moon in 10 years' time. Its aim is to raise £500m for the project from donations by the public."
"The team hope to raise £600,000, using the international crowd funding web service Kickstarter, in the next four weeks to fund the initial phase of the project."
I'll donate to that, otherwise I'll lose all self-respect.
"The cost of a short message will be a few pounds, a compressed photo will be a few tens of pounds while a short compressed video will be about £200. The cost of sending a hair sample will be around £50."
Sending a little piece of me to the Moon ??!?! [fangirl scream !]
I'll consider it...
