mentioned that the moons are quite small and How much more of a problem does that present to Space Command back here on Earth and also the modules trying to land on something that tiny?

This mission has two problems.
7:23
For one, it needs to spend quite a lot of time to figure out what it looks like on the surface to get to the right place.
7:31
And when it then wants to land on there, after having completely mapped this new world, is that it needs to do so very carefully to give you an idea.
7:42
So if you would try to just stand up in your room and while standing, doing a good jump, you'll get like a meter or two meters if you're really good and going for the olympics but if you do that on the moon you can jump easily over a car and 10 meters if you do this on this little moon you'll be able to jump roughly one and a half kilometers don't imagine it will be flying massively quickly it'll be a slow trundle as you then aim forwards and then plonk down again and then probably bounce up again.
8:18
So any wrong movement is going to be very difficult.

Can you tell us a bit more about the agency over there? This is a

well-established but still younger player on the field, and they have definitely the, I would say, coolest ideas on how they land.
