From Russia, we welcome Team Selenokhod to EVA Interviews: The Business of the new Space Age™ in the fourth of this series of Lunar Editions. As one of the most recent entrants in the Google Lunar X Prize competition, Team Selenokhod looks to build on Russia’s early lunar robotic successes of the 1970 Lunokhod-1 and 1973 Lunokhod-2 remote-controlled rovers in their efforts to win the prize. I’m excited to have Nikolay Dzis-Voynarovskiy, the CEO of Team Selenkhod, join us to discuss their team and activities to date.
EVA: Thank you so much, Nikolay, for participating in the Lunar Editions of EVA Interviews: The Business of the new Space Age™! Can you please tell us more about the formation of your team? How was your decision made to compete and what do you (and your team) hope to get out of your involvement? How is it going so far?

Librarian’s Note: Wicked cool! Glow in the dark tracks and features, different centers of activity, three teams of astronauts (red, blue, yellow), nuclear materials to move around, massive robots from some machine intelligence beyond the stars, a cool celestial navigation table for the command center, trucks, a crane, a rocket, a saucer, and some aliens (if you’re into that sort of thing), all guaranteed to provide hours and hours of imaginative play. Kudos to KidKraft for this one.

Librarian’s Note: The only real reason to watch this one is to stare in awe at just how much science they got so horribly wrong in one show.
