Lunar Lander Challenge
Armadillo Aerospace's "Pixel" in test flights before the inaugural Lunar Lander Challenge in 2006. The goal of the competition is to launch a VTVL rocket capable of moving between the surface of the Moon and its orbit. Although Armadillo made the first successful flight of a private vehicle of this class, no entrant has been able to successfully complete the mission yet.Photo credit: Armadillo Aerospace
