Lunar Probe Crashes into Moon

Israel fails to land spacecraft on the moon

The probe was going to measure the magnetic field of the moon & plant a so-called time capsule of electronic files including the Bible, children’s drawings, memories of a Holocaust survivor, Israel’s national anthem, the country’s national flag and a copy of Israel's Declaration of Independence.

 

If successful, the 590kg rocket would have become the first privately-funded spacecraft to land on the Moon, the lightest man-made object on the Earth's satellite & the cheapest-built probe to be launched into space, costing around $100 million.

This won't stop them from claiming the Moon is their territory, and has always been, and that anyone else claiming sovereignty of Moon land is a terrorist.  It is their Biblical right.
