Reminder this is the launch thread.

The on-going missions have their own threads:

…but neither thread seems to be tracking the flight of SLIM to the moon.

NSF has carefully followed each of the previous moon landers, Chinese, Japanese, Israeli, Russian, and Indian, but this one seems to be falling thru the cracks.
I cannot find any updates more recent than when the mission gained control of SLIM after it was separated from the launch vehicle.  There was nothing found that discussed the launch accuracy or the trajectory.
What kind of wastrels would dump a perfectly good booster in the ocean after just one use?

That’s because JAXA isn’t posting updates in English for some reason. Lemme post an update in the mission thread…

During the launch of H-IIA No. 47 #種子島宇宙センター , a fixed-point camera was installed at Takezaki Observation Deck to photograph the process from the rocket movement to the launch 😊✨

As the launch time approaches, you can see the sky becoming clearer 🏝️☀️

#XRISM We appreciate your continued support for (Curizumu) and #SLIM (Surimu) 🌌🌕🫶
