Yeah, that’s got to be a pretty embarrassing mistake to make. Seems like the the sort of thing which ought to have been on the checklist…
I’m impressed that they managed to land it despite this. Landing on the moon is not easy, and having to write and upload a software patch on the fly to use a different set of lasers for GNC just makes it harder.
Not a flawless mission, but still a great acheivement.
