Photos: X Prize's rocket fest

Google hosted an exhibitor booth at the X Prize Cup this weekend, with displays that let people test its mapping application Google Earth and its new Google Sky. That latter lets people view constellations, planets, moons and the like in finer detail.

Google also recently put up $30m (£15m) to sponsor the Lunar X Prize, a contest to put a robotic rover on the moon and send data and images back home. The search giant promoted the contest as part of its exhibit.
