Astrobotic's Peregrine Lunar Lander launched on a United Launch Alliance Vulcan Centaur rocket on Monday.
  • A spacecraft meant to land on the moon in February has been leaking fuel.
  • The Peregrine lunar lander now lacks the fuel to successfully land on the moon.
  • If it had succeeded, it would have been the first US-led mission to do so in over 50 years.

The first lunar lander the US has had in decades is leaking fuel and will run out in less than 40 hours. That means the Peregrine Mission One won't reach its target.
