Yeah, that would be great.

It had some last minute issues that were cool to watch trouble shoot. The landing system was not working so they uploaded the software to a different set of sensors and used those instead. Pretty cool
 
Was the moon landing in the 60's broadcast in front of a live studio audience ?

well, that controller didn't work very well under the ocean...hopefully it works in space. :D

For real though, the landing was totally autonomous. It picked the best spot to land itself, so there was a delay setting up communication with it because they basically had to find it first

After some intense waiting, Intuitive Machines, the company behind the Odysseus lunar landing mission, has confirmed the spacecraft is "upright and starting to send data."
That's a major milestone.
An upright landing potentially puts Odysseus in a better position than even Japan's SLIM "Moon Sniper" mission. SLIM was deemed a success as it made a soft touchdown, but later was revealed to have landed in a position that left its solar panels pointed in the wrong direction, causing that spacecraft to quickly lose power.
"Right now, we are working to downlink the first images from the lunar surface," Intuitive Machines said in a post on social media platform X.

There is also a camera on board this lander to study the dispersal patterns of regolith when landing. The end goal of this company is to be a “lunar delivery service” so to speak they are interested in how close they can land to things when delivering.

I remember the lack of dirt on the Apollo landers being a big hang up for you, so this should be interesting
 
So when will we be able to see some footage ? Or photographs ?
 
We was broke and hungry on a summer's day.

They sent the Sherriff down to try and drive us away.

:unsure:

Dunno man. The last update to mention them only said that they are working on downloading them. I imagine the first images to be released will be pretty polished like any other press release.

The interest in moon pics is strange to me though. It seems to be a pretty bland and boring place.
There are hundreds of amazing pictures of Mars but no one really cares about those. Videos too.
Poor mars
