HDR-CX7 (or generally HD) on the Moon

It's actually not as farfetched...

http://www.googlelunarxprize.org/lun...trobotic/about

In a recent Daily Planet (Canadian science magazine show, but it might air on the Science Channel) story on these guys, they revealed they're using a CX7 to broadcast HD to earth from the moon possibly in AVCHD.

This is actually a requirement for the Google Lunar X-prize so camera choice could be widely varied. But HD is going to the moon (It already is with the Japanese orbiter).
