Re: Oh Dear, I Have an Idea

What about those inflatable "punch'em" dummies?

Admittedly thin-skinned inflatables don't last too long around robots, even when they are being careful... but I like the off-centre COG concept.

Although, when you were mentioning "finding water on the moon", I was expecting a contest to see how fast a robot could smash into the end wall... the team mates would have to analyze the results before they, too, were smashed into the wall.

Speaking of which, I'm sure the whole idea behind the mission was a bunch of engineers sitting around going "wouldn't it be cool to smash a rocket into the moon as fast as we can?" and then going "so how could we JUSTIFY doing it?"
