Us Moon Landing 2024. On february 28, 2024, nasa engineers decided to put odysseus to sleep, ending the current mission. The first us moon landing attempt in more than 50 years appears doomed due to a critical fuel leak on a private company's spacecraft.

The lunar lander, nicknamed odysseus, or odie for short, is set to take flight atop a spacex falcon 9 rocket from cape canaveral, florida, at 12:57 a.m. An uncrewed lunar lander that launched from cape canaveral, fla., last week is scheduled to land near the moon’s south pole on thursday.
