Mission deemed 'success' - so why do JAXA officials look miserable?

The SLIM mission has made "minimum success" by landing on the moon, officials said earlier, so why do they look so miserable? 

That's the question one reporter has just put to the panel. 

Hitoshi Kuninaka responds by saying it is "somewhat concerning" that SLIM's solar cells are not working. 

Another official says the agency still doesn't have "full visibility", so it's unclear what the next step will be. 

"There are many steps forward. If we had already made them, then we would be happier," he adds.
