Looks like they have worked out some issues. Perhaps we can get a look
at some of their research.

Fascinating and detailed article on the exploration and colonization of Europa online from Moon Miners' Manifesto, first published in 1998. Also links to the Europa Workshop 2 report of 1997. http://www.lunar-reclamation.org/europa_outpost_paper.htm Larry
"Here we sit on Earth, not yet returned to the Moon, farther than we'd like to be from launching the first human expedition to Mars. Yet we find ourselves talking about human futures on a much more distant if not less intriguing world - Europa. The ships that could take us there are not yet on
That's sort of what I had in mind.

Lots Cad Renderings mixed in with real photos.
The only problem I see in the design is how to get rid of the excess
materials from drilling. I don't see a clear path from the nose to the
tail.

On Mon,
The drill at the front pushes it away from the nose, and the drill at the
rear pushes it behind the worm, effectively filling the hole back up. Some
sludge will be pushed out the hole. I'm researching BEAM trying to get a
handle on everything I need, in what spare time I have. I saw that Honeybee
My first impression of the photos and drawings of the Inchworm was "Lots ofprecision metal work here, along with some pretty complicatedelectronics. Don'tsee how we can come up withthat."
Second impression was, well, Robert Crawley works for Precision Metal Fabricators, Inc., so maybe
We can always ask if they are looking for a pertner. Do we have some
grant writing experts in the group?

Yes! I'm toldthat a working model is a giant step forward toward a grant. Even the money mavens want to see something they can hold in their hot little hands; better yet if they can play with it while sittingaround the conference table--dunk it in a tank of water, watch it bore its way
Would one working model do or should we have 2 or 3 working concepts for
a grant? I've worked on several business plans and have some experience
there, including the legal stuffs (IANAL).
At this point it sounds like getting a few working 'toys' and some good
paperwork seems the right thing to
After reviewing all of the people we have working on this project, after seeing all of the ideas flying around and the resources we have at our disposal we really do have the means and the brainpower to get it done. I see only one problem that needs to be addressed. Cohesion
The major
Agreed.
Communication is the only thing that will really hold the group together
and allow it to thrive. The more the better - including the arguments
that lead to great discoveries.

P.S. I have MR Project running under Linux now on a workstation I can
dedicate to the project.
My point exactly, but not so well said. "Cohesion" will be the lock, and communication will be the key. Tom Peters said "Involve everyone in everything," by which he meant not limiting the intellectual power to just a select few. Whatever we do needs to be visible to anyone and everyone who
I agree that everything we do should be visible.
As far as website structure, that is easy. We have the space, domain

OK, I agree. NASA is an easy target. The people who work there are hard working, bright, and dedicated. However, it is not usually the people at the working level who make the whole organization look bad. Let's overlook the publicity and get on with what we are trying to do.
I'm not sure
