The New Image of Japan s SLIM Moon Lander: How it landed on the Moon Upside Down
In this video, we show you the new image of Japans SLIM moon lander that was taken by a hopping robot, and what it reveals about the landers condition and location. We also explain how the image was taken and transmitted by two hopping robots that accompanied SLIM, and what are the implications and prospects for the future of lunar exploration. SLIM is a historic mission that aimed to demonstrate a pinpoint landing system on the moon, something that has never been done before. SLIM landed on the moon within 100 meters of its target, but it also landed upside down and unable to communicate with Earth. SLIMs mission is not over yet, and there is still hope that it will survive and send more data and images. SLIMs mission is also a valuable technology demonstration for future lunar exploration, and a testament to Japans space capabilities and ambitions.
