An uncrewed American lander that became the first private spaceship on the Moon has met its ultimate end after failing to 'wake up,' the company that built it said. It was also the first lunar touchdown by an American spaceship since the manned Apollo 17 mission in 1972.

The lander touched down at a wonky angle on February 22, but was still able to complete several tests and send back photos before its mission was determined to have ended a week later, as it entered a weeks-long lunar night. It was also the first lunar touchdown by an American spaceship since the manned Apollo 17 mission in 1972.
