SpaceIL successfully launched its Beresheet lander on 22 February 2019.
On 11 April 2019, due to failure of the main engine, the lander crashed on the Moon.

Landing
The last image #Beresheet spacecraft managed to beam to earth before it crashed on the moons surface.


My solution to the Beresheet spacecraft landing maneuver on the Moon.

The Beresheet impact occurred on 11 April 2019 and LRO passed overhead 11 days later, allowing LROC to acquire a six-image (three NAC left-right pairs) sequence of the search area. The coordinates of the darkest pixel (lowest reflectance) of the central "smudge" are 32.5956°N, 19.3496°E . More:beresheet final trajectory
