They are calling their approach “crowd-research”. While crowd-funding invites whoever is interested to contribute money to a project, crowd-research invites interested people to participate in the design of such a mission.<\/p>\n

Objective Europa<\/a> is<\/p>\n

an open research phase of a manned mission to Europa – someone has to start the work on this.
\nThere will be topics for open research, new topics to be suggested, concepts sketches to be made,
\nand forum discussion to be begun – everyone serious who finds this project interesting may join us.<\/p>\n

Participation is based on volunteering dedicated work.<\/p>\n

We are currently looking for someone to take charge of these tasks:
\n– Running our Twitter page (https:\/\/twitter.com\/ObjectiveEuropa).
\n– Creating and running our Facebook page.
\n– Finishing our report template.
\n– Continuous proofreading of our site.
\n– Being contact person and admin for researchers and future participants.
\n– Being admin\/mod on the upload of reports and research and for the site.
\n– Simply joining us if you have something else to offer the project.<\/p>\n

If you are interested in participating in general research on the manned mission, you should wait with contacting us until the page is launched.<\/p>\n

Contact us at : contact @ objective-europa.com<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
