In Soviet Russia, lunar rover drive YOU!

The story of the Lunokhods just gets weirder. In case you just can't get enough, here's a train load of images of and from the rover http://www.planetology.ru/panoramas/lunokhod1.php?language=english Just a few years ago Luna 21 and Lunokhod 2 was bought from the Russians by Richard Garriott (aka Lord British), which shouldn't be too surprising.

He owns the equipment that is sitting on the moon completely inaccessible?

Inaccessible, almost completely non-functional. I can see why the Russians were more than happy to take his ,500.
