-The mission of Apollo-NG is to be small and mobile Hackbase, so that any joining Hacker or Hacker-to-be can work with others on exciting projects, where we all can share fun, food, resources, knowledge and experience.+Apollo-NG is a mobile, self-sustainable, independent and highly-experimental [[mission:start|Hackbase]], focused on research, development and usage of next-generation [[mission:tech| open technology]] while visiting places without a resident, local Hackerspace, so that any joining Hacker or Hacker-to-be can get the opportunity to work together on exciting [[lab:start|projects]] and to share fun, food, [[mission:resources|tools & resources]], knowledgeexperience and inspiration. Obviously someone has to fly the Odyssey, so it also has to serve as a mobile, tiny habitat for a nomadic hacker: The pilot.
  
-It also operates completely self-sustainable, to prove that even today the technology exists, to actually live and work in a tiny, independent off-grid environment, with absolutely minimal power consumption but without losing considerable comfort. Due to its mobile nature, it is also a very demanding experiment to evaluate “green” technology. All of this is documented in the [[lab:|Lab]] and the [[mission:log|Mission-Log]].+Operation needs to be completely self-sustainable, to prove that today the technology exists, to actually live and work in a tiny, independent off-grid environment, with absolutely minimal power consumption but without losing considerable comfort. Due to its mobile nature, it is also a very demanding experiment to evaluate “green” technology. Everything is public and documented in the [[lab:|Lab]] and the [[mission:log|Mission-Log]] and also a great real-world, hardcore-testbed for the products, we have asked to get from our [[support:sponsors|Sponsors & Supporters]].
  
 The whole Hackbase has to be powered by renewable solar/wind/water/biomass energy, depending on which energy-source a certain location can offer - thereby proving or disproving with [[https://apollo.open-resource.org/flight-control/vfcc/#/dashboard/db/odyssey-solar-power|long term data]], that we as people can drastically reduce the amount of energy we consume (energy footprint per person) and satisfy our remaining energy needs in a sustainable manner, with locally generated small-scale smart-grid power. The whole Hackbase has to be powered by renewable solar/wind/water/biomass energy, depending on which energy-source a certain location can offer - thereby proving or disproving with [[https://apollo.open-resource.org/flight-control/vfcc/#/dashboard/db/odyssey-solar-power|long term data]], that we as people can drastically reduce the amount of energy we consume (energy footprint per person) and satisfy our remaining energy needs in a sustainable manner, with locally generated small-scale smart-grid power.
