Read Latest Technology News Quickly Here | Intuitive Machines' first lunar lander touched down on the moon early Friday morning, marking the first American spacecraft to land on the lunar surface in more than 50 years.
The spacecraft will focus on collecting data on space weather interactions with the moon’s surface, radio astronomy and other aspects of the lunar environment for future landers.
At 6:23 p.m. New York time Thursday, Intuitive Machines Inc. landed a robotic spacecraft on the moon, becoming the first private firm to place a vehicle intact on the lunar surface.
Odysseus will pave the way for American astronauts to return to Earth's neighbour later this decade. Odysseus touched down near the lunar south pole Thursday at 2323 GMT. It was a nail-biting final descent as flight controllers had to switch to an experimental landing system and took several minutes to establish radio contact with the lander after it came to rest.
