I am a fan of the LuGRE instrument from Italy. It's a sneaky little precursor to the ESA Lunar Pathfinder which will put a lunar communications system and positioning system into orbit. That will be able to use the LuGRE instrument to get it's own position fixed accurately and then it can start providing communications and positioning services to the surface. A few more satellites and the whole moon will be covered.
