Earlier this year, there was a contest sponsored by the X PRIZE Foundation that awarded that artist whose design for the X PRIZE Winner Trophy was chosen as the best. The winner of the trophy design contest was chosen by the guests of the debut dinner (held May 18th in St. Louis). The sculptor who won, James Todd of Troy, Michigan, is currently sculpting the trophy in his studio. As pictures become available, they will be posted to this site. It is the vision of the X PRIZE Foundation that the X PRIZE Winner Trophy will be placed in the Air&Space Museum of the Smithsonian Institution until such time as it is won by a courageous space pilot!
