Private moon landing could make space history. As of: February 22, 2024, 4:59 a.m By: Tanja Banner CommentsPressSplit The first US moon landing since 1972 is imminent, but this time everything is different.

A private company is taking the historic step. Unlike the last landing, which was carried out by NASA and accompanied by astronauts, this mission will be different. The “Odysseus” lander will not have a human crew as it is an unmanned mission.
