Message to Edit: HTML is ON UBB Code is ON Smilies Legend	Originally posted by Robert Pearlman on 03-05-2025 09:40 AM Intuitive Machines IM-2 update (3/4/25 \| 1730 CT) <BLOCKQUOTE>Flight controllers confirmed that Athena completed lunar orbit insertion with enough accuracy to forego the IM-2 mission's optional lunar correction maneuver. Athena continues to be in excellent health, completing lunar orbits every two hours, waiting for the sun to rise on her intended south pole region landing site, Mons Mouton. Athena's next planned maneuver is Descent Orbit Insertion (DOI), which is designed to lower her orbit to make a landing attempt at 11:32 on March 6.</BLOCKQUOTE> <center><a href="http://www.collectspace.com/review/intuitive_machines_im2_athena_orbit01-lg.jpg" target="AirLock"><img src="http://www.collectspace.com/review/intuitive_machines_im2_athena_orbit01.jpg" width="400" height="300" border="0"></a></center> Intuitive Machines IM-2 update (3/5/25 \| 0800 CT) <BLOCKQUOTE>Athena continues to be in excellent health in Low Lunar Orbit (LLO).
