Hackaday Offers Trip Into Space For Best DIY Hardware 37
An anonymous reader writes "SupplyFrame is launching The Hackaday Prize, a challenge to create open connected devices judged by Andrew 'Bunnie' Huang, and Limor 'Ladyada' Fried, among others. The grand prize is an all-expense-paid trip to space on a carrier of your choice or $196,418 if going into space isn't your thing. 'We launched The Hackaday Prize because we want to see the next evolution of hardware happen right now, and we want it to be open,' said Mike Szczys, managing editor of Hackaday.com."

If the prize is awarded in the US, he will have to pay US taxes.
Take the money and book a flight on a MiG in Russia. Almost as high, longer flight, you fly the plane, 25K$. Seems simple to me.
