Where is that quote from?
It seems to me that the only way to hit the 90% target would be to include 270kg of dead-weight tungsten, and fit all the science into a 30kg budget.
- svsaraf 12y agoLogging into innocentive lets you see more details about each challenge. EDIT: To your second point: Even though it's 300 kg total, it looks like that's allocated to 2 75 kg objects and 6 25 kg objects. I would assume that means much less weight/space per unit to work with, given the dead weight to go along with it.
- schiffern 12y agoThe relevant constraint isn't mass, but volume. Essentially you're limited you to a cube 12 cm on a side (plus 1 cm³ for every 19.25 g of payload mass).
- raldi 12y agoWhat are you basing that claim on? The quotes elsewhere in this thread seem to contradict what you're saying.
