UMD Inches Closer to Sikorsky Prize

The students at University of Maryland are so close to winning the $250,000 Sikorsky prize that they can probably taste it!  The challenge of staying airborne for a full minute and reaching 3 meters while doing it has proven amazingly tough, but they are close!  The video is almost as inspiring as watching the olympics.
