Having to reset the spacecraft seconds before landing is not good.

Someone on FARK.com made the comment: “Looks like they were taking rocketry lessons from the Palestinians”.

Yes, it was a low, crass comment, but I couldn’t help but laugh. :P

Israeli spacecraft Beresheet crashes as moon landing fails in final moments

Well that sucks! I was hoping the little craft that could would make it for the little country that could.

It’s made of cheese anyways. We probably should have tipped them off before they went through all that trouble. Sorry fellas, better luck next time and bring more crackers!

Given the logistics, they did a great job.

Well, if it weren’t for Trump, they would have landed successfully!

Damn. I was hoping they’d make it. Please, Israel: try again.

Too bad. But it’s good they got this far.

Maybe next time it will be successful.

Is it hard to land on the moon?

Does a Beresheet in the woods?

That is ok. The moon belongs to the US and time we return and take possession.

They did land just maybe not as softly as they had hoped. Sad though, wish they had been the first. B’reshit, the first book of scripture was a great name choice.

They must have forgot to safeguard against Amazon Women on the Moon.
