   Here is a graph showing the elevation angle of the Sun at the SLIM landing site. The lander's batteries have gotten recharged halfway into the lunar afternoon, because the upside-down lander's solar panels are facing southwest, instead of up, while the Sun moves east to west along the northern side (SLIM is located south of the equator).

   See the long thread at https://fosstodon.org/@AkaSci/111777585745262427 for the exciting adventure of the SLIM lander on its first lunar day on the moon.
