Part time scientists in Germany hope at the end of this year
a new robot car onto the moon. It is heavily funded by industry
like car and other industry partners.
The project
participates at the Google lunar X prize contest.
There are 20 million dollars set out for the first team to land a space craft onto the moon,
travel 500 meters and transmit high def video and images back to the moon.
Here is a nice video of the German team:
Nice is also the support even from newspapers close to tabloids cheering up the team:
