The Japanese company ispace is preparing to launch the second spacecraft to the Moon. At a press conference on September 11, the heads of the Tokyo company ispace announced that their second device, called Resilience, would be launched on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. Currently, the spacecraft is already fully assembled and is undergoing final tests, after which it will be sent to the cosmodrome. The Resilience lander is very similar to the HAKUTO-R spacecraft, which was launched to the Moon in December 2022 and crashed during a hard landing in April 2023. The company concluded that a software glitch prevented a safe landing. At the briefing, ispace also announced the landing site for the second mission: a relatively flat area in Mare Frigoris, located at 60.5 degrees north latitude and 4.6 degrees west longitude on the near side of the Moon.
