You seem poorly informed for a "reporter". SLIM did not have an engine fail to ignite. One of it's engines broke off it's nozzle below the combustion chamber. They showed pictures that the navigation camera grabbed of it laying on the surface. You showed an animation with the two nozzles, but you can clearly see in the picture of SLIM that it only has one nozzle now. The sideways motion induced by the unbalanced thrust led to the bounce and roll landing.
Its solar panels are facing west (if I am not wrong) instead of up; because of that, the panels will get light 1 week out of 2, then 14 days of night where it will probably not survive to restart, then add another week waiting for the sun to go down to the west again... 1 week working, 2 weeks freezing to death, 1 week warming up but not charging.
It depends on if they have a radio active isotope heating it during the lunar nights to keep it warm. Granted it wont have battery power till the solar panel can charge, but if they were smart and put a RTS heater on it then the cold wont hurt it.
Good news indeed for this first ever pinpoint landing within just a few meters of the intended touchdown spot. Congrats, Japan. The mini-rover (a real life transformer) is a whole new way of lunar exploration.
The probe is not designed to survive the lunar night, so, at 3:39, I don't know where they got the "this mission is expected to last for about six months". The sun sets at the lander's location on January 31st, 2024 which will probably mark the end of the mission. The sun won't rise again on the lander's location until early on February 15th, and with the oddball orientation of the lander, although we can hope, there is some doubt that it will wake up again.
How do you know the probe isn't designed to survive the lunar night? Did you find stats or a diagram on the probe somewhere that showed they didn't add a radio active isotope heater to heat it during the lunar nights? RTS heaters don't need battery power to keep warm. If you got a source please post it so we can read in detail.
Thank you NASA for sharing this news with us. Im glad that Japan is at least able to get some photo's and analysis done with their lunar lander. Way to go Jaxa. I'm still saddened that our Lunar lander did not make it.😥 TO THE, NASA 🤗👍🚀
A lunar day is 1 month, not 6 months. That is why the sun got to the solar panels in a week. It only has a week of sun left and is expected to be killed by the cold lunar night after that.
@@jakelynbrook Gaaa, the english language ! A lunar "daytime" is 14 earth days ish. A lunar "day" is a month. (like an earth "day" is 24 hours, but only about half of that is "day time")

Going on about the altimeter and telemetry, the machine is stuck upside down, so these instruments will never be used again. Video shows images of flyovers and so on. It is still stuck.
@1:05 Wow! Who'd a thunk!!! What a novel idea for a backup plan. A solar panel that would generate power when exposed to sunlight! If only we had these on Earth!!
The lunar night won't begin for 6 months? Try Feb 2nd which is today. Lunar day is 14 days. It landed on Jan 19th. The lander has no heaters to keep electronics warm during lunar night so will probably not revive. This mission is over
The moon has no loony lefty globalist parasites or rubber boat invaders. So its a great place for us superior white intelligent right of centre folk to relax & jesticulate about the moozeylooms wailing WANKMAN song & the black blm's deficating while walking in public.
Very strange that not one person involved in the designing of these Lunar missions by the various nations, not to mention NASA itself has neglected to contemplate the idea of incorporating a flickering beacon of light that would be visible from here on Earth into their missions. It seems to me that even the cheapest of dollar store solar powered garden lights would suffice, well, naturally a cheap dollar store light on steroids designed for the harsh varying temps on the Lunar surface - a beacon of light naturally would afford one and all the opportunity to look up and marvel at in wonder, makes no sense that it has yet to be accomplished. Where's the lighthouse, the early explorers always put up the lighthouse upon reaching their destination?
Do you have any idea just HOW BLASTED FAR AWAY THE MOON IS??? No simple "beacon" would be visible at that distance (239,000 miles), as any such light source would have to be incredibly bright and very directional to be seen from that far away. We once fired two very high powered lasers into large Earth-based telescopes which were pointed at the Surveyor 7 lander near the crater Tycho while it was operating, and its TV camera was just able to detect them. There is no valid reason to haul all that equipment and electrical power source all the way to the moon just to repeat that experiment from there.
@@davidknisely3003 Wonderful news! In that ' incredibly bright ' lights are now common place. And check this out,,,,if the space agency involved shaped the ' incredibly bright ' light in the shape of a corporate logo such as Mcdonald's, Apple, Coca~Cola or Westinghouse Solar Lights R~Us Inc,... the sponsored corporation would no doubt fund the entire Lunar mission. Yw! That's the way the real world works. ( And B.S,....any flicking beacon would be visible,...esp during a crescent moon when half is shaded, imo even a small mirror strategically placed upon the Lunar surface would afford those with the smallest of telescopes the opportunity to view a flicker from time to time from here on Earth as the ' incredibly bright ' Sun interacts with the mirror. )
@@wnose Imo the laser reflector story in and of itself casts suspicion upon the entire Apollo program in that no reflectors were necessary due to the obvious fact that the Moon in and of itself is a reflector, according to NASA the reflective nature of the Moon was how they originally calculated the distance to the Lunar surface. So, there's that, where is the common sense, no reflectors required, adding a reflector to a weight conscious mission would be absurd, would be the equivalent to bringing sand to the beach.
@@jaden0019 you could get a reflection off a pool of water in the morning but no one is relying on that on a daily basis. Since a mirror works better. NASA left the mirrors since they were specifically designed for scientific purposes. Just like how we use real mirrors and not puddles of water.
The Optimum temperature for LITHIUM BATTERIES is 14 - 15 degrees Celsius. By day the Moon is 120 degrees Celsius and by night it is MINUS 130 degrees Celsus. Are investors being duped in some type of Ponzi Scheme?
This video does not inform its audiences if the SLIM repositioned itself so that it could glide on the moon surface now that solar power is back on. I wonder how much information the SLIM really provides if it remains in the same position for 6 months?
Be great to hear what future design alterations this fortuitous mishap has made probable. Will Japan launch another similar design probe? Would they consider a rescue robot? They have proven the ability to pinpoint a landing.
The Sun has set at the lander location. There is no sunlight on the panels. Because the panels can only receive sunlight for 1 week of the 2 week day it won't see sunlight for another 3 weeks. Since there are no heaters on boards the electronics will freeze solid during the 14 day lunar night. This mission is over
The reason was that it didn't use the similar route that Apollo spacecraft had during their missions. It has been explained that instead of a direct route it took an extraordinary trajectory if compared to Apollo missions. "SLIM will be taking a long, roundabout journey of at least four months that requires less propellant, and then spend a month orbiting the moon before attempting to land on the surface."
@@turblijura They got lost for 4 months, then crash the thing upside down. That's what they get for trespassing on OUR Moon. We discovered it first. The Moon is now a colony of Texas (& we also own the oil drilling rights). Japan now owes us money for trespassing & littering!
Images of it the right way up are graphics, probably created before the launch. There is at least one image taken by one of the small probes it deployed and that image shows the lander didn't settle the right way up. It was designed to topple to the correct attitude after touch down but either it toppled the wrong way or too far, maybe it even bounced. The end result, the solar panel was in shadow until the relative sun angle changed due to the orbits of the Moon and the Earth.
everywhere they are trumpeting what a great success it is and that the photos have been published. All you can see is some blurry stuff and a whole lot of animation and computer graphics
One lunar day is 28 Earth days long, same as one lunar month. Each lunar day is 14 Earth days of daylight and 14 Earth days of darkness. Hope this is clear.
It hasn't got enough propellant to take off and land again. But has it enough to at least turn itself into a better attitude? (I presume not, as surely they'd have done that already - either not enough propellant, or the various nozzles in the wrong position to be any use in righting itself.)
Did I miss something, how did they tip it up the correct way so the solar panels were toward the sun? At 1:11 it says it landed upside down so how are the instruments able to see the surface?
They didn't fail. One of the two descent engines failed just before landing, ejecting its nozzle, so the spacecraft ended up almost nose-down in the wrong orientation, preventing the solar panels from getting sunlight until recently.
LOL, a "power issue?" It was upside-down, JAXA! Come on! That's about like the now famous "unscheduled disassembly" for a rocket blowing up! 😂 Thanks for the factual information, with no ... _interesting_ descriptive terms. 😂 It's appreciated. ❤❤
Why do they show only one allegedly real picture with the moon lander upside down taken by the ball robot and many cartoon pictures? If the lander is working now, and two robots move around the lander, we should expect to see many pictures or even videos. Why probes from the Mars which is much further than the Moon send a lot pictures and videos of a very good quality while Indian and Japanese probes send pictures of a very bad quality and no videos? It looks like American lunar program staged by Kubrick. Don't you think so?
In the first place, this "SLIM spacecraft" is a spacecraft whose primary mission is to successfully make a pinpoint landing for the first time in the world. Although it is equipped with a special camera to analyze rocks and sand for its second mission, it does not have a high-performance camera. No need for high-resolution cameras that aren't necessary for the mission. The small autonomous robot's mission is just to take a few photos, and it doesn't need a long battery life. The small robot's mission has already been successfully completed and it has stopped functioning.
You have a bunch of incorrect information in this video. Do your research BETTER! Lunar daylight lasts about 14 days, not 6-12 months. They may have about 6 DAYS left before lunar night. And it is the SLIM lander, not sniper. I gave up watching after the 6 month error. And someone else here mentioned you incorrectly stated the engine failed to ignite, not that the bell nozzle broke away during firing.
Apollo program communications: NASCOM (NASA Ground Communications System) ➡It costs a huge amount of money. Other lunar module communications: Moon to Earth = 192kbps/Earth to Moon = 4kbps➡ It takes time.
These Lunar Landers etc always look like something a child would make , how about some roll bars ,wheels or whatever to orientate it and a fleet of drones attached , a colab with non nerds .(I like the probes thought)
How about an enhanced ball-bot type thing that could bounce and/or eject lunar dust (possibly ground-finer and/or static-electrically charged (as lunar dust tends to get anyway) using existing locomotion components) and use that as propellant ejecta, maybe continuously (if charged) or in impulses (-> "bouncy hovering"). Ejected by spring coil or pneumatics, ultimately recharged from solar (via own mini panel and/or mother-craft).
This is a long shot but before the ball dies they should place it where it will reflect the sun on to the solar cells you would have to put it near vut at an spot where its not in the shade of lander. Even better if you could shape it in an mirror or reflect the best you can do. And when it dies it may serve you well. Good luck.... oh and if you can bypass the charger and go straight to bat with connections from solar cells. It will charge with very little light. But then you may over charge, so it has to be monitored

who dose all of AI images and where dose one learn how to do it?
Elon said that his company will have humans on the moon by 2023,that didn't happen, smh
Cool cgi, wait who took the picture of it on the moon? 1:09
The lander carried two mini rovers which are now on the surface of the moon, and the camera on one of the rovers took that photo.
makes sense to the story, thanks!@@mikep9604
It flipped because it lost a nozzle.
Upside down means succes. Maybe they forgot to design leg or arm to help it .But better her US dady!
next Jaxa mission: Seppuku
Why?
😮Goodday tue the mon
Kerbal space program...
These Lunar Landers etc always look like something a child would make , how about some roll bars ,wheels or whatever to orientate it and a fleet of drones attached , a colab with non nerds .(I like the probes thought)
How exactly would your fleet of drones fly in zero atmosphere ?
Lego built it.
How about an enhanced ball-bot type thing that could bounce and/or eject lunar dust (possibly ground-finer and/or static-electrically charged (as lunar dust tends to get anyway) using existing locomotion components) and use that as propellant ejecta, maybe continuously (if charged) or in impulses (-> "bouncy hovering"). Ejected by spring coil or pneumatics, ultimately recharged from solar (via own mini panel and/or mother-craft).
They need to copy the weebles-wobble-but-they-wont-fall-down design
This is a long shot but before the ball dies they should place it where it will reflect the sun on to the solar cells you would have to put it near vut at an spot where its not in the shade of lander. Even better if you could shape it in an mirror or reflect the best you can do. And when it dies it may serve you well. Good luck.... oh and if you can bypass the charger and go straight to bat with connections from solar cells. It will charge with very little light. But then you may over charge, so it has to be monitored
It's the size of a baseball. It couldn't reflect enough light to do any good
Is this moon lander more informative than INDIA'S Chandrayan 3 ? I don't think so
I can not believe people rally think this is real.
the lander is bathed in radiation ,there needs to be a way to use space radiation to power the batteries ?
In a show of space exploration unity, I urge Israel to dispatch its marooned Tardigrades to reorient the Japanese lander…
