A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, with a payload including two lunar rovers from Japan and the United Arab Emirates, lifts off from Launch Complex 40 at the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Cape Canaveral, Fla., Sunday, Dec. 11, 2022.
With a science satellite already around Mars, the UAE wants to explore the moon, too. Its rover, named Rashid after Dubai's royal family, weighs just 22 pounds and will operate on the surface for about 10 days, like everything else on the mission. Founded in 2010, ispace was among the finalists in the Google Lunar XPRIZE competition requiring a successful landing on the moon by 2018. The lunar rover built by ispace never launched.
Only Russia, the U.S. and China have achieved so-called"soft landings" on the moon, beginning with the former Soviet Union's Luna 9 in 1966. And only the U.S. has put astronauts on the lunar surface: 12 men over six landings.

GO for Japan. All these rockets to space, as pa would say, 'play hell' with the weather. The whole universe is connected by radii as Hawking said, and is the stabilizer of chaos. Everybody wants a piece of that cheese.
