The words spoken by Neil Armstrong in 1969 when he was the first man to step onto the Moon. 

Now some 44 years later the Student team from Princess Margaret Secondary become the first Canadian Team to win the International Space Settlement Design Competition at NASA's Johnson Space Center.This program is the design of a self sustaining settlement of 10,000 people on the moon.

Visitors to our August 20th meeting were some of the Princess Margaret Secondary team that competed in the NASA competition they showed us the Trophy they received and told us about the time they spent in Houston. The interaction with other students that formed their company and working with NASA engineers who evaluated their entry. A truly commendable achievement in this worldwide competition. Maybe someday soon we will see the fruit of their labors lifting off for the moon.
