    IM-1 Landing WFOV Fisheye . The IM-1 Mission successfully landed the first spacecraft on the Moon’s south pole region, marking the United States’ first return since Apollo 17 and the first commercial lunar lander to transmit valuable science data of each NASA payload from the lunar surface. In addition, the operation of the Company’s liquid methane and liquid oxygen propulsion system in deep space is flight-proven through successful mission operations. Intuitive Machines achieved these marquee accomplishments in the company’s first attempt to land on the Moon. The photos included provide some of the first photos of Odyssesus landing on the Moon.

            US Air Force To Launch Seventh X-37B Mission

            Handout photo shows the X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle, or OTV, is an experimental test program to demonstrate technologies for a reliable, reusable, unmanned space test platform for the U.S. Air Force. The U.S. Space Force is preparing for the launch of the enigmatic X-37B space plane aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket. Taking place at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on December 7th, the upcoming mission, known as USSF-52, marks a significant milestone as it will be the first time the X-37B launches on a Falcon Heavy. While the X-37B’s capabilities and operations remain shrouded in secrecy, the Space Force has shed some light on its mission objectives. The upcoming flight will build upon previous missions that utilized the X-37B as a platform for launching and testing experimental payloads before safely returning them to Earth.
