Lander on top of Propulsion Module and Rover inside Lander.
It is planned to be placed on top of the upper stage of the LMV3 rocket and launched in the second half of 2023.
The Propulsion Module and Lander will be in this configuration from Trans Lunar Injection until reaching the 100 Km Circular Orbit around the Moon. The detached lander will attempt a soft landing after sunrise at the landing site.
After landing, the rover will remain there until sunset (14 Earth days). Lander’s tenure will be the same.
