My guess is it landed on a slight incline and bounced on impact then tipped over................

I’m guessing it landed correctly, then bounced up, 1/6 gravity, but since it was on an incline, it tipped over and came down on it’s head....................

Close. Not exactly a bounce, but had some horizontal velocity due to a thruster failure, so it just kinda rolled over. (Source Scott Manley)
Here's a photo...
They name moon rocks for dog breeds?

The landing was perfect, other than being intended for the opposite side of Moon.

His real name was Ottis Dewey Whitman (pronounced Ah Tiss) but we all knew him as Slim Whitman. Died in 2013 at age of 90 and one of nicest persons you would ever meet! I had the privilege of being the family pastor. He an his wife were married 67 years before she passed in 2008!

It may have rolled down a crater, hill slope.

Seems pretty short-sighted to send something to a low gravity, rocky place with no means to right itself.

I watched lots of Robat combat. All the battlebots have mechanisms to right themselves in the event of being turned over

OK. So what’s their excuse? They didn’t consult a 9 year old for parts of the design team?
