Imperial College Science Challenge (updated)
by Simon at 12:15 27/01/06 (Blogs::Simon)
I can already tell that 2006 is going to be considerably weirder than 2005.

The January 2006 Alumni News Update I've just received from the Royal College of Science Association says that the two science faculty unions of Imperial College are running a Science Challenge in the spring term.

The challenge is...

To propose an innovative method of utilizing scientific knowledge to preserve the seeds of 'civilization' in the event of a catastrophic natural or man-made global disaster. This may be approached from any angle but entrants will be asked to present a concept and scientific basis for their proposal with clearly defined reasoning.

The objectives are to encourage innovative and creative use of science and to support students' development through the opportunity to approach a problem analytically and utilize their scientific knowledge to create a novel solution. Entries may be made either by individuals or teams and awards will be given for the Most Innovative Concept and the Best Scientific Proposal.

Update: 31/1/2006 The question's been changed, see below.
