"Pittsburgh's Astroboric Lunar Lander Mission Yields Valuable Data Despite No Moon Landing"

Despite not reaching the moon due to a propellant leak, Astrobotic's Peregrine lander provided valuable data for NASA and other payloads during its flight. Instruments like LETS and PITMS collected data on cislunar radiation and detected traces of nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide, while the Iris lunar rover underwent subsystem testing. Astrobotic is investigating the propellant leak, impacting the development schedule for the larger Griffin lander and NASA's VIPER mission, with a new launch date likely to be set after the investigation's completion.
