Odysseus touched down on the moon in 1972? I didn’t know that.

From what I’ve heard, it’s laying on its side.

Well dang, those moon communications 50 years ago were strong.

What happened?

Can you believe that this article does not even mention that there was a known communications problem last night with the mission. It makes me realize I need to be careful with the NY post. They omit information. If they could do that with this than they could do it for any story.

I heard they’re going to deploy the EagleCam, a project built by students at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, tomorrow to see how it all looks up there and how badly it’s tipped.

They were supposed to launch the EagleCam before it touched down but didn’t due to all these landing/navigation problems they were having. Now it looks like they can use it to diagnosis how things are.
