NASA Science Live: Our First Commercial Science Delivery to the Moon - Lunar Science

Intuitive Machines Inc (LUNR) hosted by Tahira Allen Dr.Sue Lederer CLPS Project Scientist Dr.Debra Needham CLPS Program Scientist The mission was largely a scientific success,including the first ever radio telescope on the Moon,which gathered data both in transit to the Moon and on the lunar surface.The instrument which didn't work right was the Plume Surface Studies,whose goal was to image the engine exhaust plume as it churned up dust on the lunar surface.Its secondary goal was to image the exposed fresh surface below the lander throughout the lunar day for science investigations.It wasn't able to collect data on descent this time,but we were able to test it in space,as well as after landing to help prepare for its next mission,which will be on the Firefly spacecraft.
