Space Tech: One small step for NASA

Wired News: NASA Follows X Prize Footsteps: "It's time to dust off your never-finished plans to develop Spider-Man-strength webbing and wireless power transmitters.
NASA announced Wednesday that it will award $50,000 each to the first teams to develop a Space Age tether and a wireless method for powering robots. "

See this is the kind of thing I like to see. NASA is finding ways to develope new and interesting technology. If I had any sort of engineering skills I would be all over something like this. Of course I'm more of a code geek then a hardware geek so I'll leave this to professionals. A wireless power source could be very cool though.
