Smart Lander for Investigating Moon (SLIM), which is the mission of Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), achieved the first pinpoint lunar landing in the world on January 19, 2024. In this paper, the actual operation results of the SLIM’s lunar landing operation are shown, especially by introducing the crater-based optical navigation which is one of key technologies for the pinpoint landing.
