COSMIC MESSAGE
In September 1967, the Surveyor 5 lander slid several feet while making a soft landing on the Moon's Mare Tranquillitatis. The US Surveyor spacecraft were designed to determine if lunar surfaces were safe for Apollo landings. Surveyor 5 touched down on the inside edge of a small crater, inclined at about 20 degrees, and its footpad slipped.
