Scientists reveal Beresheet spacecraft lunar landing site:

"A team of scientists from the Weizmann Institute of Science and SpaceIL
engineers have identified the site for Israel's Beresheet spacecraft's lunar
landing.

According to a release disseminated by the Weizmann Institute, the chosen site
was selected by Prof. Oded Aharonson of the Weizmann Institute and Prof. Jim
Head of Brown University. It is located in the northeastern part of Mare
Serenitatis, a few hundreds of miles east of the Apollo 15 landing site and a
similar distance northwest from the Apollo 17 site.

Three optional landing sites were identified, too.


The terrain in these locations are composed of material characteristic of
ancient mare surfaces – large, dark basalt plains resulting from long-ago
volcanic eruptions – on which successful landings have been made, explained
Weizmann in the release."
