Athena Lander failed

[Asmodeus]

The second privately owned spacecraft that touched down on the moon's surface has tipped over due to its laser navigation system failing. Texas-based Intuitive Machines announced a day after the landing that the lander lost its proper orientation of solar panels for charging its batteries, hence it failed due to the tipping over of the lander. So the Athena mission has ended. The lander consists of a drill, a rocket powered drone, and two rovers for NASA and some other customers. This was the second moon landing by a privately owned company under NASA's commercial lunar delivery program.

Yes, remote controlling is more difficult than someone, a very experienced pilot who trained in controlling spacecraft for such situations. The primary reason for this failure is a malfunctioning of the laser guidance system. But they will improve those functions with future implementations. And compared to that first moon landing, this mission costs like pocket money. I can understand why people does not believe the moon landing actually happened, however there are third party moon landing evidences exist.
