The device was launched on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket on February 15 and reached the Moon’s orbit in six days.

The American robotic lunar probe Odysseus has completed its mission. About that reports Intuitive Machines Company.

In particular, he was unable to restore contact with Earth after the cold lunar night.

“Before his batteries died, air traffic controllers set Audie into a configuration that would allow him to call home if the systems exceeded the manufacturer’s expectations,” the report said.

It was noted that last week, when Odysseus was supposed to receive enough light to power the solar panels, the Intuitive Machines team tried to restore communication with it. However, the attempts were in vain.

“This confirms that Audie is gone forever after cementing his legacy in history as the first commercial lunar lander to land on the Moon,” the company said.

Hubble was previously reported to have photographed the irregular galaxy UGC 5829, which is located at a distance of about 30 million light years from Earth.
