We're whalers on the moon, we carry a harpoon. But there aint no whales so we tell tall tales and sing this whaling tune.

I wonder if they can do a live video feed from the lander. That would be cool

They are really showing a lot of their data in this explanation. I guess it makes sense since it's kind of an ad.

Hope so. NASA usually shows all their stuff, but this isn't NASA so who knows how much they'll show

1700 central means it's only roughly been 20min. Surely it can't relay live...

They had to find it again because the lander picks its own landing spot

That's extremely smart if true. Not saying I don't believe it. But much better that trying to communicate that in real time.

But this is great. Beresheet, Hakuto, Luna, Slim, Peregrine, etc all failed in one way or another.

No private company has done this before. And no country has done it flawlessly since China's Yutu rover.

They didnt even confirm the thing didnt crash lmfao. They just kind of tried to make it sound like it probably did then ended the broadcast after congratulating themselves

sooo boring.. landing on the moon is something your dad would have done in the 60s.

Call me when there's a new moon that would be interesting.

Trying to land a rocket by remote control with nearly 3 seconds of lag sounds like a recipe for failure. Apollo 11 would have crashed as well if it had followed the automated landing sequence because it was heading straight for a boulder.

Update: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wynBeg7BYr0

Tl;DW: Some numbskull left the physical safety lockout on the landing lidar system enabled. The flight team was able to kludge together an improvised lidar feed from one of the secondary payloads and integrate it into the lander's computer system in two hours , but the lander hit with too much lateral velocity and tipped over on its side.
