Why Did The Latest Lunar Lander Fall Over, Why Is Landing On The Moon Harder Than We Thought



Over the last week we’ve learned a few more details about how Intuitive Machines performed a minor miracle in crossing hundreds of thousands of miles, gently slowing itself to arrive at its landing site as slowly as possible only to fall over. Almost like what happened on their first flight.

Beyond that, I keep getting the question of why modern lunar landers appear to crash so often when this seemed to be a solved problem in the 1960s.
