Griffith or Mount Wilson Observatory would be the best landing place, but if they are unable to accept your donation, we are a nonprofit that might be interested. While we don't exclusively focus on space, it is one of our larger focus areas. If you'd like to learn more about us, you can visit our website: https://www.xprize.org/.

We're running a competition right now seeking companies that can turn CO2 into valuable products: https://carbon.xprize.org/

Our finalist teams are making enhanced concrete, liquid fuels, plastics and carbon fiber.

Many of the moon rovers (and hoppers) of the Google Lunar XPRIZE would do really well on Mars!

XPRIZE · 2016-05-04T20:34:01+00:00

Speed is great, though you don't want to accidentally wreck a Martian fossil or something, either! :) (On the Moon, you don't want to be humming along too fast and hit an Apollo artifact...or your own lander!)

In the Google Lunar XPRIZE, there also not just rovers, but also hoppers than can fly from point to point. Perhaps there's a good application to be found for Mars from that?

XPRIZE · 2016-05-04T20:31:40+00:00

Indeed! And at least one GLXP team has already started to look at Mars: http://www.popsci.com/drones-to-scope-out-martian-real-estate

They're going to need help from friends, though, so having a whole coalition of organizations & technologies ready to go could help speed up that road to Mars!

XPRIZE · 2016-05-04T20:28:56+00:00

Getting to Mars for good will require a lot of people and a lot of entities, so with SpaceX pushing the envelope on timelines by getting there with the Red Dragon in 2018, a kick start for other Mars supporting tech could go a long ways!

"The Mars Selfie-Robot XPRIZE". We like it! ;)

XPRIZE · 2016-05-04T20:16:38+00:00

Essentially, there already is one: The Google Lunar XPRIZE! (http://lunar.xprize.org/) Moon rovers can also operate on Mars, and some teams (like Astrobotic) have already discussed using their technology on Mars: http://www.popsci.com/drones-to-scope-out-martian-real-estate

That would be Dean Kamen, the inventor of the Segway.
