First moon landing in over 50 years.LGB

  • JUST IN: The US-made Odysseus lunar lander, nicknamed “Odie” or IM-1, has made a touchdown on the moon, surpassing its final key milestones — and the odds — to become the first commercial spacecraft to accomplish such a feat, but the condition of the lander remains in question.
  • Odie's engineers had to overcome navigation issues during a highly difficult landing attempt. Mission control had trouble communicating with the craft after touchdown, but confirmed contact after a tense few minutes.
  • Odie’s trip to the moon is designed to assess the lunar environment of the moon's south pole ahead of NASA’s current plan to return a crewed mission there in late 2026.
  • It comes after a failed US lunar landing mission last month. A US-made spacecraft hasn't successfully touched down on the moon in five decades.
