The Japanese ispace private Moon lander, Resilience, is slated to attempt a landing no earlier than June 5, 2025 UTC.

The landing area is in Mare Frigoris (60.5°N 355.4°E), a volcanic region interspersed with large-scale faults known as wrinkle ridges.

The Resilience lunar lander entered lunar orbit on May 7.

Meanwhile, NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter team has issued this image of the landing zone for Resilience.
