"Peregrine Lunar Lander's Selfie Capture and Mission Failure: A New Hope for Space Exploration"

Astrobotic's Peregrine moon lander, which recently launched on the debut flight of United Launch Alliance's Vulcan Centaur rocket, has sent back another in-space selfie showing a sliver of Earth. The lander, carrying 20 payloads including NASA's science instruments, is currently about 80% of the way to the moon and is expected to reach its destination in about 15 days. However, a propellant leak will prevent it from attempting a moon landing as planned.
