ISpace's private Resilience Lander will attempt to touch down on the Mare Frigoris region of the moon's surface on June 5, at 3:17 p.m. EDT (1817 GMT). While you won’t be able to see the lander ...

The spacecraft's laser range finder, or LRF, experienced an anomaly that prevented Resilience from obtaining valid measurements of its distance from the lunar surface.

Resilience, which is 7.5 feet (2.3 meters) tall and 8.5 feet (2.6 m) wide, is targeting Mare Frigoris, a vast, relatively smooth basaltic plain in the moon's northern hemisphere.

The moon is pictured half-lit during its first quarter phase. The locations of the Aristotles and Eudoxus craters are shown close to Mare Frigoris towards the north, while the Sea of Tranquility ...

Mare Frigoris is significantly flatter than the Atlas crater region, potentially offering easier-to-navigate terrain. Ispace said in a statement that the new landing site was chosen because it ...

The images show a dark smudge where the lander, named Resilience, and its mini rover crashed into Mare Frigoris or Sea of Cold, a volcanic region in the moon’s far north.

The Mare Frigoris, also known as the Cold Sea, is a region near the Moon’s north pole which scientists have been studying in depth. They completed a survey of more than 12,000 images showing the ...

Their targeted landing site is in a region called Mare Frigoris in the moon’s far north. This will be ispace's second attempt at landing a spacecraft on the moon. In 2023, ...

Some of the most prominent features in Mare Frigoris measure up to an incredible 250 miles (400km) in length – more than the distance from New York City to Washington DC.
