Moon Moon Handner woke up unexpectedly and sent a final message

Space can be a ruthless place. Last week, the lunar land sliding on the moon and ended up in a dark cold hole, and ends its mission before it begins. Now, the recently unveiled details of the Houston -based Aerospace Machines are continuing the Houston headquarters, the last moments of Athens Lander and how the spacecraft had briefly erupted in life after it fell.

Athens land On Thursday, March 6, after a week’s trip to the moon. The matter ended alongside it in a shallow hole in the Mons Mouton area in the moon, 820 feet (250 meters) from the target landing site. Less than a day after landing, Athens’ death was announced. But now, Steve Atimus, CEO of intuitive machines open The company Lunar Lander did not die upon its arrival, and that “the mission pressed forward” before its sudden end.

The intuitive machines also released a 360 -degree image from the descent of Athens, which were stitched together using the four Lander cameras on the plane.

On its way to the moon, the height scale failed in Athens, which means that the landing was unable to measure the distance from the surface of the moon. As a result, Lander hit the moon’s plateau, long, and skiing on the surface before it ended in a small hole, according to Art Technica. During slipping through the serrated terrain of the southern pole of the moon, the landing from the dust was launched from the surface, some of which ended up on the solar panels. In addition to being rare alongside it, dust means that there will be a little chance to use athena its solar panels for energy.

Lander was crowded with NASA’s scientific tools and tools Moon Tourning Services (CLPS) Program. Immediately after the landing, the team accelerated the beneficial loads and transferred precious data before the Athens batteries were completely exhausted, according to Altemus. “In only 12 hours of surface operations, we collected unusual valuable data for our customers,” he wrote in his statement.

This is the second trip of the intuitive machines to the moon, and the second time its land ends in an unfortunate situation. The company launched its first lunar landOdysseus, in February 2024. Odysseus managed to reach the surface of the moon, but its landing was also not soft. One of Lander’s legs may have been arrested while descending, causing her to be organized on her side It ends up lying on a rock. The task was working for seven days on the moon, and the intuitive machines became the first company to land on private land on the moon.

Athens was not fortunate, but she had some separation words for her team. “In the last moments of the mission, Athens operated it. But unexpectedly, Lander woke up the last time, and sent a transmission that resonates beyond technology – was personally,” Altemus wrote. “The last data carrier in Athens contained the names of each member of the intuitive machines team that made its mission possible.”
