Things have been going slowly as I plan to find a location for "Location-1" as described in the site:
http://www.microlaunchers.com/7816/L3/sa09/sa09.html
Right now, it looks like it will be Henderson Nevada, with "Location-2" either of two dry lakes about 30-40 miles away, and -3 at Black Rock, north of Reno.
The launch site for orbit attempts are presumably going to need to be at east coast, perhaps North Carolina. And if near Kitty Hawk, that would be neat.
Design of the N Prize launcher is still going, and with attention to the ease with which it can be upgraded to the entry level "ML-1"
For some time, the plan was to have 3 sizes, each a 10x scale up: ML-1, 100-200 kg GLOW, 100-200 gram to escape or 1 kg Cubesat to LEO;
ML-2, 1-2 metric ton, 2-3 kg to escape or 1 kg to lunar surface or rendezvous with NEO, or GLXP entry; ML-3, 10-20 tons (about 1/2 of a SpaxeX Falcon-1),
and about 50-100 kg to escape or about 1/3 of that to lunar surface.
The N Prize launcher is to be about 1/2 the size of ML-1 and not capable of escape. Perhaps the maximum to LEO might be one of the new Pocket Cubes.
For N Prize the 3rd stage engine will be tested first, as the performance of that will strongly determine the GLOW. This is to be by measuring C* at sea level. Then the vacuum specific impulse can be calculated to within a few percent.
The 2 upper stage propellants are to be LOX and either butane or propane, and the first stage LOX and fuel to be selected.
In a while, there will be some re-structuring of the website, and some new articles.
