    In a possible bid to make the most stylish entry yet for Google's Lunar XPRIZE, Audi has announced that it's teaming up with Part-Time Scientists, a German team working to put its rover on the moon. The carmaker says it's providing the Quattro's four-wheel drive tech, as well as expertise in lightweight construction and piloted driving. It's also getting a handy chunk of advertising, as the rover will now be called the Audi lunar Quattro moon rover -- in case you forget who helped.
