Private Japanese lunar lander heads towards touchdown in the Moon's far north
A private lunar lander from Japan is closing in on the Moon, aiming for a touchdown in the unexplored far north with a mini rover. The Moon landing attempt by Tokyo-based company ispace on Friday Japan time is the latest entry in the rapidly expanding commercial lunar rush. Advertisement The encore comes two years after the company's first moonshot ended in a crash landing, giving rise to the name Resilience for its successor lander. Resilience holds a rover with a shovel to gather lunar dirt as well as a Swedish artist's toy-size red house that will be lowered onto the Moon's dusty surface. Long the province of governments, the Moon became a target of private outfits in 2019, with more flops than wins along the way. Launched in January from Florida on a long, roundabout journey, Resilience entered lunar orbit last month. Advertisement Deployment of @Firefly_Space 's Blue Ghost lunar lander confirmed — SpaceX (@SpaceX) January 15, 2025 It shared a SpaceX ride with Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost, which reached the Moon faster and became the first private entity to successfully land there in March. Another US company, Intuitive Machines, arrived at the Moon a few days after Firefly. But the tall, spindly lander face-planted in a crater near the Moon's south pole and was declared dead within hours. Resilience is targeting the top of the Moon, a less forbidding place than the shadowy bottom. The ispace team chose a flat area with few boulders in Mare Frigoris or Sea of Cold, a long and narrow region full of craters and ancient lava flows that stretches across the near side's northern tier. Advertisement Once settled with power and communication flowing, the 7.5-foot Resilience will beam back pictures, expected several hours or more after touchdown. It will be at least the weekend, according to ispace, before the lander lowers the piggybacking rover onto the lunar surface. Made of carbon fibre-reinforced plastic with four wheels, ispace's European-built rover — named Tenacious — sports a high-definition camera to scout out the area and a shovel to scoop up some lunar dirt for Nasa. The rover, weighing just five kilograms, will stick close to the lander, going in circles at a speed of less than one inch per second. Advertisement It is capable of venturing up to two-thirds of a mile from the lander and should be operational throughout the two-week mission, the period of daylight. Besides science and tech experiments, there is an artistic touch. The rover holds a tiny, Swedish-style red cottage with white trim and a green door, dubbed the Moonhouse by creator Mikael Genberg, for placement on the lunar surface. Takeshi Hakamada, CEO and founder of ispace, considers the latest moonshot 'merely a stepping stone', with its next, much bigger lander launching by 2027 with Nasa involvement, and even more to follow. Advertisement 'We're not trying to corner the market. We're trying to build the market,' Jeremy Fix, chief engineer for ispace's US subsidiary, said at a conference last month. 'It's a huge market, a huge potential.' Mr Fix noted that ispace, like other businesses, does not have 'infinite funds' and cannot afford repeated failures. While not divulging the cost of the current mission, company officials said it is less than the first one which exceeded 100 million dollars.

Europe's first rover to land on moon - and it's carrying a tiny red house
The first lunar rover made in Europe is set to land on the moon tonight, carrying a tiny red house and a scoop. The rover, called Tenacious, is just 31.5cm wide and 54cm long and weighs 5kg - around the size and weight of an empty carry-on suitcase. It is one of the smallest and lightest rovers in the world and is operated by ispace EUROPE from Luxembourg. "It's a big deal," said ispace EUROPE's chief executive Dr Julien Lamamy to Sky News. "We've designed this rover, built it, tested a lot of it, and we're going to operate it all from Luxembourg." "We're showing that in Europe, [...] space companies have a startup mindset that can contribute a lot to the achievements of the European space." Tenacious will also be the first private rover to operate on the moon's surface, and will drive for around ten days before it "gets too cold and too dark", according to Dr Lamamy. The rover, which blasted off from Earth on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket in January, is arriving on the moon with some fairly unusual cargo. A tiny red house, designed by Swedish artist Mikael Genberg, will be placed on the lunar surface and photographed to represent "an artistic and epic story of new possibilities", according to ispace. Mr Genbeg has been trying to get his art to the moon for 25 years, said Dr Lamamy, "but 25 years ago, only space agencies were going to the Moon". "To me, that reflects what we're here for," he said. "Of course, we're here to contribute to science and exploration and knowledge about the moon, but we're also here to give access to other folks that have cool projects." There's also a scoop on board to collect moon dust, which will be sold to NASA for $5,000 (£3,685) - the first ever sale of off-planet resources. The rover is being carried in a lander spacecraft called Resilience, which launched in January on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket and entered lunar orbit on 6 May. Also aboard the lander is a water electrolyser, a module containing food production experiments, a deep space radiation probe and a commemorative plate. It is due to land on the Mare Frigoris region of the near side of the Moon at 7.17pm BST. This will be ispace's second attempt to land on the moon, after it tried in 2023, only to lose connection with its lander in the final stages of the mission. After spending 100 days in space and decelerating from 6,000 kilometres per hour to a walking pace a few metres above the moon's surface, the signal from the lander was lost. "We have to assume that we could not complete the landing on the lunar surface," said Takeshi Hakamada, CEO of ispace, at the time. Dr Lamamy said those issues have been rectified - for his team, now what remains is to experience "one of the biggest moments of our lives".
