Google Lunar X prize

Google has organized a Lunar X prize of $30million competition for the first privately funded team to send a robot to moon, travel 500m and send video and images to earth. http://www.googlelunarxprize.org/ First in 1960s there was a cold war between US and Russia about the mission of moon landing.Now the competition is not between countries, but between the famous companies. In future I think this contest will be become between the people.
