I would be very dubious about this. The article is much more about Doge-1 than IM-1 and IM's website doesn't mention the date. Doge-1 is - can I say 'stupid' on the internet? Well, here goes... it's stupid. When Intuitive announces a date we can take it seriously. I would expect somewhere around December at the earliest.
Not quite so clear now. It looks like the Astrobotic launch is delayed to January 8, 2024, just a few days before Intuitive Machines. If Astrobotic follows the same kind of c. 30 day flight it had planned before, the landing is delayed, but if it follows a shorter path, as its payload users guide says it can, the landing might still happen on the 25th. At any rate the next landing attempt will be SLIM on Jan. 19 or 20th.
The above post still looks pretty good, amazingly. We do have dates, roughly 15 March for Queqiao 2 and May 2 for Chang'e 6. After that, where are we? IM-2 looks like going to very late in the year as lessons from IM-1 are applied. So maybe Firefly's CLPS mission will come in before it, but I haven't seen anything about its launch date. Also late in the year might be ispace's Hakuto-R Mission 2 (Resilience). But the order is not known, and I could well imagine most or all of those 3 going into 2025.
IM-3 (Reiner Gamma)
This looks good! I expect VIPER and Beresheet 2 will be delayed, VIPER as decisions are made about the lander and Beresheet 2 for its funding difficulties.
