[SpaceProgram] Very good news from discussion with the DARPA 100YSS program manager tonight

Huei Ming,

We need to use Google Docs to collaborate so I imported the doc and gave
permissions to anyone with the link:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1h4cvSQ58gQS_C8ZA1KrAu0ijStsalP9mLid7okLTuzw/edit

Lets use this doc to fix up the problems in the original proposal and come
to some sort of consensus on where we are going. Comment and edit away! ^_^
