Masten Space Systems made a successful flight with its Xoie lunar lander. However, the vehicle suffered fire damage that cannot be repaired in time for another flight today. Judges for the Northrop Grumman Lunar Lander Challenge were huddling at last report considering a request from Masten to make another flight on Friday morning.https://parabolicarc.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/masten_engine-225x300.jpg
