Ispace's Resilience lunar lander crashed while attempting to land on the Moon's Mare Frigoris, losing communication just two minutes before touchdown. This mission aimed to deploy the Tenacious rover, designed to collect lunar samples for NASA. CEO Takeshi Hakamada expressed regret over the failure, which follows a previous unsuccessful attempt two years ago. Preliminary analysis suggests a malfunction in the altitude measurement system led to a hard landing. Despite setbacks, Hakamada emphasized the company's commitment to future lunar missions, with plans for a larger lander by 2027 involving NASA.
