Japanese company ispace's Resilience lander has successfully entered lunar orbit in preparation for a landing attempt next month.
This is ispace's second lunar landing attempt, after the first lander crashed due to a calculation error in April 2023.
The current mission includes science experiments and technology tests on board, along with a micro rover named Tenacious to explore the landing site.
The lander aims to touch down in the Mare Frigoris region but may switch to a backup landing location if needed, with the landing attempt scheduled for June 5.
