Lunar Immortality Now!
Sign Now
I would like to construct a suitable solar-powered visual display in the lunar crater Tycho, for the purpose of looping Stanley Kubricks 1968 film 2001: A space odyssey.
The display may be black-and-white or color. It must be large enough for resolution by an Earth-based 90 mm telescope, yet invisible to the unaided eye. A sound broadcast is optional, but must correct for the 1.2 light-second delay.
The location corresponds to the site of the buried monolith in the film, which is why this is so cool.
(Originally, I had offered on my blog [http://metaphorager.net/lunar-enterprise/] a million-dollar prize to do this. But since I don't have a million dollars, a friend suggested open-source is the way to go. Let's prove him right!)
