   The ispace RESILIENCE lunar lander successfully completed a flyby of the Moon reaching its closest point at 8,400 km altitude on Feb 14 at 22:43 UTC.

   Unlike the Firefly mission, RESILIENCE will continue to travel ~1.1 million km out before looping back towards the Moon for lunar orbit insertion, in early May. See post #12 for the orbit diagram.
