Well as 8/8/8 seems such a Discworld number today seemed to day to announce a plan to launch a Roundworld version of Potent Voyager as it says on the site we are still looking into safely, legal and funding issues before revealing more details but one way or another we are going to attempt this.

It will be a launch vehicle hopefully capable of putting a small satellite into orbit named after the space ship in the Colour of Magic.
Rules in brief
The N-Prize is a cash prize of £9, 999.99 (nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine pounds and ninety-nine pence, sterling), which will be awarded to the first person or group to put into orbit, around the Earth, a satellite with a mass of between 9.99 and 19.99 grams, and to prove that it has completed at least 9 orbits. The cost of the launch (but not ground facilities) must fall within a budget of £999.99. Imaginative use of string and chewing gum is encouraged. Entrants are responsible for everything, organisers are responsible for nothing.
Where are we going and why am i in this handbasket?...
...Oh! always try to look on the bright side...
... Um anybody got any marshmellows.?
