"Odysseus Moon Lander Goes Dormant a Week After Sideways Touchdown"

TL;DR Summary
The first U.S. spacecraft to land on the moon since the Apollo astronauts, Intuitive Machines’ lander, Odysseus, stopped working a week after tipping over at touchdown near the lunar south pole. The lander sent a farewell photo before losing power, showing the moon's surface with Earth and the sun in the background. Intuitive Machines became the first private business to land a spacecraft on the moon without crashing, carrying six experiments for NASA. NASA sees these private landers as scouts for future astronaut missions.
