Intuitive Machines’ Odysseus lunar lander touch down near Malapert A in the South Pole region of the moon on Thursday evening.

Those interested in watching the first U.S. spacecraft to land on the moon in more than half a century may be able to do so on Thursday.

A six-legged moon lander will attempt to land on the moon this week for the first time in over 50 years. This will be the first-ever private spacecraft to do so, if successful.

A lunar lander designed by Intuitive Machines is heading to the moon following a launch on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on Thursday.

Astrobotic Technology says its Peregrine lunar lander, which was unable to land on the moon, has went down in a remote area of the Pacific Ocean.

The compromised space vessel carrying the ashes of several "Star Trek" cast members is being forced into an emergency crash in the Pacific Ocean, according to Astrobotic.

The Astrobotic Peregrine Mission One lunar lander has fewer than 40 hours before its thrusters run out of fuel and it tumbles through space, Astrobotic said.

A one-of-a-kind tool used on the NASA Apollo 16 mission in the 1970s is up for grabs to the highest bidder. The tool is expected to go for over $750,000.

Artemis I is an uncrewed test flight that will launch the agency's Space Launch System and send its Orion spacecraft around the Moon and back to Earth.

NASA's Artemis program is aiming to send astronauts back to the lunar surface as early as 2025. Astronauts last walked on the moon in 1972.

NASA's Artemis 1 mission to send a rocket to orbit the moon was delayed at the Kennedy Space Center on Monday due to a hydrogen fuel leak.

A small NASA satellite on Monday broke free from its orbit around Earth and is headed toward the moon. The satellite is roughly the size of a microwave oven.

The Sustaining Lunar Development contract will offer an alternative to SpaceX's Starship, which is aiming to transport the first woman and first person of color to the Moon in 2025 or 2026 as part of NASA's Artemis III mission.

The inspector general's office predicts 2026 will likely be the Artemis program's earliest timeframe for humans' first return to the Moon in more than 50 years, citing a series of factors that have caused delays from its 2024 target.

The awards include $9.4 million for SpaceX, $25.6 million for Blue Origin, $34.8 million for Northrop Grumman, $35.2 million for Lockheed Martin, and $40.8 million for Dynetics.

Jeff Bezos has sent an open letter to NASA administrator Bill Nelson offering to help the agency cover over $2 billion in costs in exchange for awarding a second Human Landing System (HLS) contract to Blue Origin.

Sixty years to the day that NASA astronaut Alan Shepard became the first American in space aboard the Freedom 7 rocket, U.S. business leaders are continuing to help the country make major strides in space exploration.
