Many of the GLXP teams will be rooting for SpaceX this weekend.

Two Odyssey Moon founders will be attending the launch.

A great blog post.

GLXP may have a bit more competition

Russian scientists want to send two lunar rovers and several landing stations after 2020 as part of the country’s return to the moon. The planned study of polar regions is aimed at eventually creating a permanent manned base there.

The attention was drawn to moon’s poles by the discovery of ice there, reports RIA Novosti, citing a draft space research roadmap prepared by the Russian Academy of Sciences.
