Stop making up fake acronyms. You're wasting my time.
or rather
Northrop Grumman Lunar Lander Challenge is a real tomfoolery.
en.wikipedia.org...
How is that the extraordinary BGG (Biggest Grumman Group)
Acronyms are not evidence of a fraud.
that built from 1962 to 1971 13 LMs (I love NASA's frauds' acronyms)
or rather Lunar Modules and that landed on the Moon 6 LMs and 12 astronauts
ask on 2008 to poor people (an ex developer of computer games, an ex fierworks specialist and so on) to invent a new Lunar Lander?
There is something very strange.
Why did BGG (Biggest Grumman Group) stop its researches about probes and Lunar Modules and began to produce these LLVs (yes, you have understood well: LLVs not LLRVs or LLTVs) ?
From space to postal service?
Has BBG (Biggest Grumman Group) lost its extraordinary technology able to lift and land a rocket holding it in vertical position like a helicopter?
If they had been really so extraordinary in 1960-1970, today their technology would be astonishing after almost 40 years.
Conclusion: their technology was false, in fact no video exists about LEMs tested at Langley Crane and shot by means of 6 cine-cameras during 150 test flights.

My dear readers, what can we say in front of this incredible stupidity?
Ngchunter is a gout. End of the story.
The Northrop Grumman Lunar Lander Challenge is designed to accelerate commercial technological developments supporting the birth of a new generation of Lunar Landers capable of ferrying payloads or humans back and forth between lunar orbit and the lunar surface. Such a vehicle would have direct application to NASA’s space exploration goals as well as the personal spaceflight industry. Additionally, the challenge will help industry develop the operational capacity to launch quick turnaround vertical take-off, vertical landing vehicles, which will be of significant use to many facets of the commercial launch procurement market.
“We are excited by the number of teams competing this year and their overall level of sophistication”, said Dr. Peter H. Diamandis, Chairman and CEO of the X PRIZE Foundation.
“We fully expect to award the $2 million purse this year in what will prove to be an exhilarating showdown between a number of very qualified teams”.

My dear readers, pay attention to these words
Could this remote controlled childish toy ferry payloads or humans back and forth between lunar orbit and the lunar surface?
media.armadilloaerospace.com...
No, it couldn't do it.
My big brain wonders why NG-LLC allowed Armadillo Aerospace to compete with a prototype unable to ferry a pound of potatoes?

Not be remote control, but by 'incredible technology' that you insist is impossible.

So, now go away and study....go to school, maybe take a course in English while you're studying physics and astrometrics and other aerospace disciplines.

I don't understand why you think landing vertically with reverse thrust is so impossible.

Or why testing a SPACECRAFT in the Earths atmosphere and gravity field makes any sense!

It has nothing to share with Phoenix. Also goats know this simple concept.
