By Joey Roulette and Akash Sriram WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Intuitive Machines' second moon landing appears to have suffered the same fate as the company's first attempt last year, with issues involving a laser range finder causing landing problems that resulted in the Athena lander falling on its side on the lunar surface,

Intuitive Machines’ flight controllers are communicating with the lander and trying to figure out its orientation on the lunar surface.

The latest mission, referred to as IM-2 or PRIME-1, is slated for a moon landing at 11:32 a.m. CT on March 6. Intuitive Machines and NASA will provide live event coverage, starting at 10:30 a.m. CT.
