To celebrate the release of Vostok Inc. on the Nintendo Switch Wired Productions have announced the ultimate competition and prize. A cash prize of $100,000,000 will be given to the first person to physically travel to and provide proof of their journey to each of the planets within the solar system and that includes Pluto as a planet as well. Jimmy announces the competition in the video below…
This practically unbelievable competition is open to everyone with the exception of Richard Branson and Elon Musk…..oh and NASA. Those who do decide to enter this race to the planets will have 100 years to complete this endeavour.
Landing on each planet is not required (probably because it would be impossible in some cases) however, a full orbit must be completed with unedited, raw footage of each orbit being provided.
“Our grandchildren might be very angry with us, and though it may seem far-fetched that this can be achieved within 100 years, the ideas behind Vostok Inc and the recent ground-breaking technical advancements in solar sail and electromagnetic propulsion, like the Nintendo Switch, proves that anything is possible. For those who don’t want to put the 100 years into visiting the solar system, Vostok Inc. is the perfect way to explore the stars. Plus you can shoot a unicorn gun.”, said Neil Broadhead, Communications Manager for Wired Productions.
Would be astronauts can visit here for all terms and conditions and the application form. However, if you are like me and consider yourself not having a hope in hell you can always just play Vostok Inc. on the Xbox One, Playstation 4, PC and Nintendo Switch and earn a 100 million in game instead.
