It was an evening launch and we spent the day at KSC. On the bus tour around the launch pads we happened to sit right behind a couple members of the SpaceIL team (including the chief systems engineer). They were extremely friendly and happy to answer all sorts of questions.&lt;p&gt;Best of luck to the team on this exciting day!</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>A private spacecraft from Israel will attempt a moon landing Thursday</title><url>https://arstechnica.com/science/2019/04/a-private-spacecraft-from-israel-will-attempt-a-moon-landing-thursday/</url></story>

Once in the correct circular orbit, it will decelerate for a soft landing on the lunar surface, planned for 11 April 2019.[44] &amp;quot;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>A private spacecraft from Israel will attempt a moon landing Thursday</title><url>https://arstechnica.com/science/2019/04/a-private-spacecraft-from-israel-will-attempt-a-moon-landing-thursday/</url></story>
