He, Space Placers!
February 26, 2024: JAXA's SLIM lander is proving to be "hard-to-kill." The lunar lander has actually woken up after lunar sunrise (which occurred mid-month)! It has survived the cold, two-week lunar night. It even sent us a new image of its Shioli Crater home.

"The Japanese space agency has reestablished contact with its SLIM lunar lander prior to sunset, enabling mission science to continue."
