Israeli Moon Lander Tweaks Orbit to Prep for Thursday Lunar Arrival:

"Israel's Beresheet lunar lander has almost made it to the moon.

The 5-foot-tall (1.5 meters) Beresheet fired its engines for a little over a
minute early this morning (April 1), altering its trajectory slightly to prepare
for a planned capture into lunar orbit on Thursday (April 4).

If all goes according to plan, the robotic lander will touch down on the moon
one week later, on April 11. That will be a huge milestone. To date, the only
organizations to pull off a soft lunar landing are superpower governments — the
Soviet Union, the United States and China.

Beresheet, meanwhile, is a private effort run by the nonprofit SpaceIL and the
company Israel Aerospace Industries. SpaceIL formed in 2011 to compete in the
Google Lunar X Prize (GLXP), a $30 million competition that asked privately
funded teams to land a spacecraft on the moon and have it perform a few basic
tasks."
