Love it! I watched another video about how much money is spent to win the Xprize vs the actual prize purse. This sort of competition is great for society on so many levels.
Yeah it looks like they are covering it pretty well, and providing decent information on it. Its good as kids at school can be watching and learning from this. Great projects, i love it!
