The Odysseus lander, the first US spacecraft to make a moon landing in 50 years, successfully touched down on the Moon's surface despite suffering a broken leg. This historic event was made possible in part by the Psionic 'Navigation Doppler Lidar' (NDL) technology, which aided failing equipment to achieve a soft landing. Before powering down for the lunar night, Odysseus sent a moving farewell picture showing a 'Crescent' Earth from the Moon's South Pole. Meanwhile, NASA's Perseverance rover continues to explore Mars, capturing images and videos of the Martian surface, including the Ingenuity Mars helicopter.

Suffering a broken leg, the newest visitor to the Moon is quite the trooper. But can the Odysseus lander survive the harsh lunar night? https://t.co/61nwR0YfNk
Odysseus makes history as the first US spacecraft moon landing in 50 years 🌕 A key link in the success: Psionic 'Navigation Doppler Lidar' (NDL) technology aided failing equipment for a soft landing. @CNN covers NDL's role in saving the mission ➡️ https://t.co/MwTvOqbX4k
