This year started with a major lunar milestone. A spacecraft built and flown by Texas-based company Intuitive Machines landed near the moon’s south pole in February. This was the first U.S. touchdown on the lunar surface in more than half a century and the first ever achieved by the private sector.
The landing of the uncrewed six-legged robot lander, dubbed Odysseus, capped a nail-biting final approach and descent in which a problem surfaced with the spacecraft’s autonomous navigation system that required engineers on the ground to employ an untested workaround at the 11th hour.
