"Japan's SLIM Moon Lander Enters Dormancy After Capturing Final Lunar Photos"
Japan's SLIM moon lander has powered down for the lunar night after capturing final images and collecting a wealth of science data, including analyzing the lunar surface's composition using its Multi-Band Camera. The spacecraft will need to endure the harsh lunar nighttime temperatures before potentially being revived for further operations. Regardless of its fate, SLIM has achieved its mission goals by landing precisely, deploying rovers, and obtaining valuable scientific data, which will contribute to solving the moon's origin mystery.
