2024年2月15日 - 11:09PM
Intuitive Machines, Inc. (Nasdaq: LUNR, LUNRW) (“Intuitive
Machines”) (“Company”), a leading space exploration,
infrastructure, and services company, has announced its IM-1
mission Nova-C class lunar lander has launched on SpaceX’s Falcon 9
rocket and successfully commissioned in space by establishing a
stable attitude, solar charging, and radio communications contact
with the Company’s mission operations center in Houston.
“We are keenly aware of the immense challenges that lie ahead,”
said Intuitive Machines CEO Steve Altemus. “However, it is
precisely in facing these challenges head-on that we recognize the
magnitude of the opportunity before us: to softly return the United
States to the surface of the Moon for the first time in 52
years.”
The IM-1 mission launched from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s
Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 1:05 a.m. EST, Thursday,
February 15, 2024. It reached its intended orbit approximately 48
minutes later and established first communication with the lander
at 1:59 a.m. EST.
The Intuitive Machines IM-1 mission is the Company’s first
attempted lunar landing as part of NASA’s Commercial Lunar Payload
Services (“CLPS”) initiative, a key part of NASA’s Artemis lunar
exploration efforts. The science and technology payloads sent to
the Moon’s surface as part of CLPS intend to lay the foundation for
human missions and a sustainable human presence on the lunar
surface.
Intuitive Machines will provide IM-1 mission updates on the
Company’s website and Twitter/X account.
