Israels first lunar lander, Beresheet, appears to have crash-landed on the moon.<\/p>\n

The spacecraft, launched by the Israeli nonprofit SpaceIL, was scheduled to touch down on the lunar surface on April 11. But in the final few minutes of its descent, the spacecrafts engine stalled. Mission control reset Beresheet to bring its engine back online, but then communication with the lander cut out.<\/p>\n

\u201c#Beresheet's main engine fail! Spacecraft failed landing. Appeared to have crashed on the moon's surface!\u201d the Israel Space Agency tweeted at 3:30 p.m. EDT<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Had Beresheet arrived safely, Israel would have become the fourth country \u2014 following the United States, the former Soviet Union and China<\/a> \u2014 to stick a lunar landing (SN: 11\/24\/18, p. 14<\/em>). Still, Israel has now claimed seventh place in sending a spacecraft into orbit around the moon.<\/p>\n

Launched from Cape Canaveral, Fla., onboard a SpaceX rocket in February, Beresheet orbited Earth until meeting up with the moon in early April. After several lunar orbits, the spacecraft was set to park in the Sea of Serenity \u2014 a volcanic plain on the moons nearside, close to where Apollo 17 astronauts planted a flag in 1972.<\/p>\n

Beresheet carried a handful of scientific instruments onboard, including cameras and a device to mRead More \u2013 Source<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
