Version 0.09 (2024-01-06 22:15:47.114000)
updates: Two private companies, Astrobotic Technology and Intuitive Machines, are preparing to launch moon landers as part of a NASA-supported effort to kick-start commercial moon deliveries. Astrobotic Technology is scheduled to launch its lander on Monday, January 8th, aboard United Launch Alliance's Vulcan rocket. Intuitive Machines aims to launch its lander in mid-February, hitching a flight with SpaceX. Japan's space agency will also attempt a moon landing in two weeks. If successful, Japan will become the fifth country to achieve a lunar landing. Astrobotic and Intuitive Machines are competing to be the first private entity to land on the moon. The companies received nearly $80 million each in 2019 under a NASA program to develop lunar delivery services. Astrobotic's lander, named Peregrine, will carry 20 research packages to the moon, including five for NASA and a rover for Carnegie Mellon University. Intuitive Machines' lander, named Nova-C, will carry five experiments for NASA and target the moon's south polar region. Landing near the moon's south pole is challenging due to its rocky and craggy terrain. Both companies plan to make subsequent missions to the south pole, with Astrobotic carrying NASA's water-seeking Viper rover and Intuitive Machines delivering an ice drill for NASA.
