SLIM is a small Japanese lunar lander planned to launch this year.
Here: https://sorabatake.jp/25799/ is an article about it, with some images, describing two small landers which will deploy from it and operate on the surface. In Japanese. Open in something which will offer a translation if required. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

That may have been what the change in Doppler behaviour of the SLIM signal suggests occurred.
Scott Tilley now reports: QUOTE The ranging tones from #SLIM have stopped and remained absent for a few minutes now. No idea what this means, or even if it's bad news. Press conference has started! Edit: Nope! It was just an update to tell us that they'll start at 2:10 local (13 minutes from now). -------------------- -- Hungry4info (Sirius_Alpha)
