At first, it had been suspected that had run out of fuel at the very last moment, which wouldn't have been any less tragic of course.
The current scenario, however, gives the team a much better opportunity to fine tune their systems and software.

That really is bad luck! ☹️
The team was not at fault at all.

"The private Japanese moon lander Hakuto-R crashed in late April during its milestone landing attempt because its onboard altitude sensor got confused by the rim of a lunar crater."

This means that there is no need for additional explanations regarding the Doppler separation of the reflection. Accounting for the timestamp difference, all the data is more or less consistent with a final velocity of ~140m/s at the end of a ~90s free-fall. (2/2)

, la sonda giapponese che doveva allunare, si è schiantata sul suolo lunare, perciò la missione è FALLITA.

Infatti, secondo ispace, la società giapponese che ha realizzato la sonda, la sonda è precipitata sulla superficie della dopo aver esaurito il carburante.

Mission Attempts Moon Landing, Falls Silent - Our latest post for Sky and Telescope on iSpace's mission, with updates:
skyandtelescope.org/astronomy- Here's the latest company statement: ispace-inc.com/news-en/?p=4655 - Part of the legacy of the Google Lunar X Prize, iSpace was the 2nd alumni (after Israel's SpaceIL) to attempt a lunar landing. Perhaps, 2024 will be the charm for the space company...

I’m checking @ispace_inc’s own press conference held in Tokyo a few hours ago & it seems there’s a different scenario of than English reports currently have now.

Per CEO (Takeshi Hakamada) & CTO (Ryo Ujiie), it seems there’s something wrong with the altitude readings.

La compagnia privata giapponese alza bandiera bianca: il lander purtroppo è perduto. Nessun contatto. L'allunaggio non è riuscito. Probabilmente ha toccato il suolo a velocità troppo elevata. Si analizzano i dati per preparare le prossime missioni

I think with recent examples, we need to lower the expectations of payloads riding on @NASAArtemis CLPS lander missions to the Moon making it to their destinations.

Landing on big gravity wells - even ones without atmosphere - is hard.
