Very cool!

A couple of things I wondered about:
- It has limited life support.  Is it sealed against gas, etc?  Is it
NBC safe?

- Is it OK in the water?  How far down can it go before it reaches crush
depth?

- How about space?  With the sticky legs and the wheels replaced with
reaction thrusters and some more life support it might make a good
vehicle for climbing around the outside of ships and stations.
