    In a first, ESA is preparing a moon lander for 2031! Which is a bit funny when you consider the comet landers, which were quite a new feat as opposed to the moon which has been landed on by the US, Russia, China, Japan and India. Still, if successful it'd be quite a milestone for ESA. Landing on the moon is not easy.

      Yeah you'd think it would be easy after sixty years, but it's still such a feat. I think the ESA needs this win.
