TL;DR Summary

The failed Peregrine lunar lander, carrying human remains and DNA, will crash into Earth's atmosphere by Thursday after encountering critical anomalies following its launch last week. The lander, created by Astrobotic Technology, was intended to reach the moon but will now burn up in Earth's upper atmosphere to prevent leaving disruptive space junk in cislunar space. Despite the failure, the mission is considered a success as it provided valuable data and insights for future missions.
