Well to further expand on Japan being “semi successful” with their moon mission, the lander did land within the intended 100 meter area, which is pretty incredible.
Unfortunately however, the lander landed upside down lol, which is mostly likely why the solar panels are not working as they were intended to.
One of their rovers captured this picture

It’s believed that part of the propulsion system had fallen off during landing which caused the incorrect orientation

There is a chance that they will catch some sunlight in the coming days which will help them record more data, but once lunar might hits that area it will be far too cold for it to boot back up

Stupid of them. If they launched it from Australia it would have landed the right way up wouldn't it.
 

Grounded!! NASA's historic Mars helicopter Ingenuity 'CRASHES' on Red Planet - abruptly ending $85m craft's three-year mission​

The Japanese lander is what I would call the Fukushima of Lunar Landers.

That’s a pretty terrible title to the article lol. It was sent there with the goal of 5 flights, but completed over 70. It lasted years longer than planned. It was a resounding success

Yes, it’s true. Trump set into motion the whole thing. He declared a nationwide emergency under Section 501b of the Stafford Act and authorized Major Disaster Declarations for all states. This was a first in the country’s history and set the stage for everything that ensued.

He was bragging about it at his rallies but people were booing and I think he got the message. I think it would've been funny if Trump had been in office during the 2021 mega vaccine push. You would've had libs freaking out about his "death" vaccine. Since a democrat was in charge they could pretend like it was safe and effective.
