Armadillo wins Lunar prize

Pretty cool. [Link]
Friday's win had the Armadillo team successfully fly their vehicle to a height of 160 feet (50 meters), then sky-scoot itself over to a distant landing pad, land safely after a minimum of 90 seconds of in-the-air time — and then repeat the flight.

That earned the Armadillo team $350,000 in prize money.
