The race to Shackleton Crater is on—will Jeff Bezos or China get there first?

Two spacecraft, Blue Origin's Endurance and China's Chang'e 7, are set to launch later this year to explore Shackleton Crater near the Moon's south pole, aiming to study water ice deposits. Endurance will be the largest lunar lander in history, while Chang'e 7 includes an orbiter, rover, and hopper drone for ice detection.
