The images show a dark smudge where the lander, named Resilience, and its mini rover crashed into Mare Frigoris, or the Sea of Cold, a volcanic region in the moon&#8217;s far north. A faint halo around the area was formed by the lunar dirt kicked up by the impact.&#13;\n                                    <\/p>\n<p> NASA&#8217;s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter captured the scene last week. The crash was the second failure in two years for Tokyo-based ispace. Company officials plan to hold a news conference next week to explain what doomed the latest mission, which was launched from Cape Canaveral in January.<\/p>\n<p>  (More <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newser.com\/tag\/108\/1\/nasa.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NASA<\/a> stories.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; A NASA spacecraft around the moon has photographed the crash site of a Japanese company&#8217;s lunar lander.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":710,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[994,916,159,783,167,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-709","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-space","8":"tag-moon","9":"tag-nasa","10":"tag-science","11":"tag-space","12":"tag-space-exploration","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-unitedstates","15":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/114718456187464827","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/709","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=709"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/709\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/710"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=709"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=709"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=709"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
