Lunar Outpost’s first rover reached the Moon but never deployed after its lander tipped over
Lunar Outpost’s MAPP rover reached the lunar surface aboard Intuitive Machines’ Athena lander in March 2025, but the lander came to rest on its side and MAPP was not deployed. The company’s later rover programmes continue, yet the first mission provides surface-delivery heritage rather than evidence that the rover drove or completed its planned exploration work.
