Doomed Lunar Lander Snaps Haunting Photo Before Plunging into Frigid Lunar Night
- Japan's SLIM lander took an eerie photo before being enveloped by lunar night
- The lander managed to turn back on over a week after landing upside down on the moon
- The photo shows the lander's view as night approached, with temperatures dropping below -200°F
- The solar-powered lander is now dormant for the two-week long frigid lunar night
- SLIM has low odds of waking up again, but the team will try when sunlight returns in February
