I saw a DHL sticker on the lunar lander so my best guess is that it’ll be lost, land on another moon or be later by several weeks.

Just got an email from Astrobotic:

"After successfully separating from United Launce Alliance’s Vulcan rocket, Astrobotic’s Peregrine lunar lander began receiving telemetry via the NASA Deep Space Network. Astrobotic-built avionics systems, including the primary command and data handling unit, as well as the thermal, propulsion, and power controllers, all powered on and performed as expected. After successful propulsion systems activation, Peregrine entered a safe operational state. Unfortunately, an anomaly then occurred, which prevented Astrobotic from achieving a stable sun-pointing orientation. The team is responding in real time as the situation unfolds and will be providing updates as more data is obtained and analyzed."

Hopefully they will get this corrected, before attempted landing.

BTW my DNA is on board, as part of LifeShip's "seed bank".
