in Memoriam Doctor Paul H. Dear

I am the Founder, Sponsor and Chief Optimist of the N-Prize.
The N-Prize is an international aerospace competition, which challenges entrants to be the first amateurs to launch a pico-satellite (a minute satellite) into low-earth orbit on a shoestring budget, in exchange for an equally minute cash prize.
The intent is to stimulate creativity; to quote Ernest Rutherford, "Gentlemen, we haven't got the money so we will have to think!"
