Of eggs and water

As it is evident now on our Facebook page (check out also our seasonal avatar images :-)), Easter Bunny has brought lots of nice coloured eggs to Team Puli. We are really happy about them! Moreover, there is good news in the air about sponsorship negotiations, and on the progress of our Iteration 2 / Hunveyor 15 project; more on these topics soon.

From easter eggs it is a short way to one of the special Hungarian habits on Easter Monday. Boys are “watering” girls by pouring fresh water over them: it is quite a funny case, even if today it happens mostly in a much reduced form - boys are using drops of perfumes to perform the job symbolically. You surely can image the olfactory result for the girls - it is a hard day for all :-)

Can You imagine to live this nice tradtition on the Moon? It would be surely fun in a future Moon Base to "water the girls" - but we need quite a sophistiaced water supply for this. So we have to search for water on the Moon: that's one of the reasons why we have the Moretus Crater, with possible ice deposits, on our current shortlist of landing sites.

Happy Easter / Season's greetings from Team Puli!
