The Japanese mission #HAKUTO-R was supposed to land on the #Moon two days ago, but it is now believed that the spacecraft crashed into the surface. This spacecraft was built by the privately funded company #ispace.

This failure follows on the crash of the #Beresheet lander on April 11 2019 that was built by the private Israeli company #SpaceIL.

This year we will see three more landing attempts by the private US companies #Astrobotics and #IntuitiveMachines.

#Beresheet
"The #ceremony of installing the disk containing the #LunarLibrary in the #spacecraft was a #publicity stunt. Delivering the spacecraft to the #LaunchSite was also a #show for the #media – from the transport to Ben Gurion #Airport with the completely #unnecessary #police escort, to its loading onto the cargo plane ✈️.
It seems that the #debate over whether #tardigrades can #survive on the #moon has reached well beyond the #space buffs’ circles https://davidson.weizmann.ac.il/en/online/sciencepanorama/what-happened-beresheet

LIVE: Ready to watch a spacecraft land on the Moon?

Today, @TeamSpaceIL's #Beresheet attempts to become the 1st private robotic mission to touch down on the lunar surface. On board: our science instrument to help future Moon landers navigate.

Disappointed the #Beresheet lander didn't make it successfully to the Moon's surface, but alas, it is in fact there now. Just getting there is a substantial accomplishment.

Nice final pic it sent!

Today, for the 1st time, a private robotic spacecraft attempts a Moon landing! @TeamSpaceIL's #Beresheet carries one of our science instruments — an example of how we'll work with partners to pave the way to returning astronauts to the Moon by 2024.

♲ @[email protected]: #Beresheet is in an excellent orbit! during the critical maneuver yesterday Beresheet took some amazing photos of the far side of the #Moon!

#Beresheet moon lander - should be a couple of interesting months ahead.
