What was the whole mission
At the beginning of the previous week, the US took a historic flight to land on the moon. The NASA’s Pergrin 1 Lunar Lander of NASA (NASA), with the help of a private manufacturer named United Launch Alliance (Ula), was transported to the orbit. It was happening after 50 years when the US space agency sent a mission to land on the moon.
Missure came after launching
The organizers of the mission had said that a few hours after the launch, Astrobotic started giving information about a malfunction. At the same time, fuel was constantly leaking from the lander, which led to the end of the possibility of lander reaching the moon.
Now the company has said in a post that the spacecraft is moving back to the Earth. It is likely to burn as soon as the earth enters the atmosphere. The team of scientists is keeping an eye on this spacecraft. It is currently about 4 lakh kilometers from Earth.
NASA spent a hefty amount
NASA spent $ 100 million for this mission. NASA wanted to gather information about the lunar structure and landing place through Peregreen 1 Lunar Lander. This is not the first time a private company tried to land on the moon and failed. In April 2019, Israel’s bearsheet was accidentally accidentally accidentally on the surface of the moon.
