In May 2008, the UPC Team showcased their groundbreaking vision for the Google Lunar X Prize. Led by Ferran Casulleras, Gisela Detrell, Sergio Mainar, and more, the team aims to achieve remarkable feats, including deploying radio-controlled moon rovers, sending ashes to the Moon, and recording entertainment films from lunar surface. With a total mission cost of $150 million, they seek funding through partnerships, individual donations, and sponsorships. The initiative prioritizes environmental ecology, safe data storage, and respect for lunar topology, truly embodying a futuristic exploration spirit.
