The company [that helped build the rover] is perhaps most famous for originally creating the Transformers, the alien robots that can disguise themselves as machines

So, Transformers on moon confirmed.

I'm surprised they didn't blame the crash on the Decepticons!

... actually it was caused by one of the engines falling off! (or the nossle anyway)

Doh! Well, at least next time they'll know they should design it so that the engines don't fall off. Maybe add some tape and push it harder against the frame for a few seconds so it knows it's meant to remain there.
