Google will give you $30 million if you can put
a robot on the moon:

Anyone interested in teaming up on this?  I can
build the robot if you can supply a launch vehicle
and lander.

Maybe there is a slightly used Saturn V rocket on ebay.
I'll check.

Might be an issue since even that geezer here in the UK thats trying
DIY space exploration hasnt managed to escape gravity it yet, despite
a stupendously large rocket and no payload.
