Japan Successfully Lands SLIM On The Moon, But Something Is Wrong!

On Friday 19, Jan 2024, Japan officially asserted its status as a space power with the successful landing of its SLIM spacecraft on the lunar surface. Launched in September 2023, the SLIM lander touched down as reported by telemetry readings from the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency.

Hiroshi Yamakawa, the president of JAXA, confirmed the successful soft landing and the spacecraft’s ability to transmit signals post-descent. However, something weird happened, that could compromise the mission’s future. That’s pretty sad, isn’t it?
