CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) \u2014 A NASA spacecraft<\/a> around the moon has photographed the crash site<\/a> of a Japanese company\u2019s lunar lander.<\/p>\n

NASA released the pictures Friday, two weeks after ispace\u2019s lander slammed into the moon<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The images show a dark smudge where the lander, named Resilience, and its mini rover crashed into Mare Frigoris or Sea of Cold, a volcanic region in the moon\u2019s far north. A faint halo around the area was formed by the lunar dirt kicked up by the impact. <\/p>\n

NASA\u2019s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter captured the scene last week. <\/p>\n

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, launched from Cape Canaveral in January.<\/p>\n
