Additionally, the Odysseus spacecraft is scheduled to attempt a landing close to the South Pole of the Moon on February 22, aiming to be the first American mission to do so in over 50 years. The lander carries a suite of six payloads for NASA under the Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) initiative, including scientific instruments to measure the plasma environment and provide data for future Artemis astronauts. It will also test new technologies such as a LIDAR-based sensor for descent velocity and range sensing, and an electrostatic dust-removal system that could revolutionize spacesuit technology.
