Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Odysseus landed successfully on the Moon on 22 February. Built by Intuitive Machines, Odysseus is the first private lunar lander and the first US lunar lander since 1972. It is currently around 300 kilometers from the lunar south pole, an area that may contain ice. The lander experienced a malfunction that required a software patch hours before landing. It will collect data for up to seven days until night falls at the landing site.
