"Astrobotic attempted to carry the Lunar Library II to the Moon on its Peregrine Lunar Lander intending it to store it on the lunar surface. Astrobotic’s inaugural lunar mission also included a manifest of payloads from NASA, companies, universities, nonprofits, and individuals.

The Peregrine Lander experienced an anomaly and after orbiting the Moon, it returned to Earth and burned up upon re-entry over the South Pacific. "
