The second moon landing by Intuitive Machines appears to have suffered the same fate as its first try last year, with data indicating the Athena lander ended on its side on the lunar surface after problems with its laser rangefinders, the company's CEO Steve Altemus told a news conference on Thursday (March 6). Nicola Fox from NASA added that the lander ended on a lunar plateau called Mons Mouton.
