It says plan was only 8 or 9 days but they always seem to get way more life out of these things (when it’s not broke lol) hopefully they can compensate and keep it alive
I guess the main issue is the batteries in the deep freeze of lunar night; they’re likely to be damaged by the -270 temperatures. If you’re not budgeted to deal with that then you don’t spend a lot of money trying to survive it for 2 weeks.
Except for that one that landed on an asteroid.
