Congrats to Intuitive Machines, successfully landing their Nova-C lander on the Moon! The Nova-C lander is operating and communicating with Earth. For the first time, a private company has landed on the Moon! Soon the experiments can start operating on the Moon.

Congratulations to all my colleagues and friends at Space Machines Company for the launch of their Optimus satellite. It is the largest private-built satellite ever built in Australia! The photos are when it was tested at the National Space Test Facility up Mount Stromlo
