"Odysseus Moon Lander's Historic Touchdown: New Images and Science Updates"

TL;DR Summary
Intuitive Machines, the company behind the Odysseus moon lander, released new images from the moon's surface after its successful landing, marking the first American spacecraft to do so in over 50 years. Despite encountering challenges and landing crookedly, the lander is still operational and will be put into a planned shutdown before an attempt to wake it up in two to three weeks. The mission is considered an "unqualified success" as it achieved its main objective of safely landing on the moon and returning scientific data to its customers.
