A lunar lander built by Intuitive Machines is scheduled to descend to the moon’s surface today, potentially marking the second landing by a private company on the moon in the last week, roughly a year after the aerospace firm completed the first lunar landing by an American spacecraft in decades.

NASA's Athena Moon lander will land near the Moon's South Pole today. This mission aims to gain insights into lunar resources like water ice. Athena's data could influence future missions and sustainable Moon exploration.

The moon lander Athena made it to the lunar surface, but its condition was unclear as mission controllers rushed to understand its status.
