"Peregrine Lunar Lander Defies Odds, Continues Operating on Moon"

Astrobotic's Peregrine lunar lander, despite encountering a dire fuel leak shortly after launch, has defied the odds by remaining operational in space for over four days, with the estimated operational time continuing to extend. The company has received critical data from many of the payloads on board, and while a soft landing on the moon is unlikely and a shortened lifetime is certain due to the leak, the extended operational life is a significant achievement for the mission team and payload contributors.
