Our #GhostRiders completed another lunar orbit maneuver with a 3 minute, 18 second burn early this morning. This maneuver moved the lander from a high elliptical orbit to a much lower elliptical orbit around the Moon. Shortly after the burn, Blue Ghost captured incredible footage of the Moon's far side, about 120 km above the surface. In this orbit, the team will experience planned rolling comms blackouts as Blue Ghost goes around the far side of the Moon. When on the near side, the team will continue to downlink data and finalize the plan for our next maneuver that will get Blue Ghost even closer to the lunar surface and keep us right on track for landing on March 2. #BGM1

I love you to the Moon, but not back - I'm staying there," 💙 Blue Ghost. We captured our first shots of the Moon following a successful Lunar Orbit Insertion. The lander will soon begin to circularize its orbit in preparation for landing on March 2. #BGM1

Moon science? Yes. Preparing for our long-term future in space? Also yes. ✅ ✅ The Artemis II lunar flyby mission will give humanity a new perspective on the Moon, and test the systems and technology that will eventually bring astronauts to the lunar surface to stay.

The USA is back on the Moon thanks to the IM-1 mission by Intuitive Machines. This week their lunar lander launched on a SpaceX rocket and touched down on the lunar surface. I appeared on CNN to discuss this milestone event, set to open access to the Moon for the progress of humanity. #IM1 #MOONLANDING

🚨SPACEX HITS 100TH LAUNCH FROM HISTORIC PAD 39A WITH DOUBLE MOON MISSION Falcon 9 just nailed its historic centennial liftoff from NASA's legendary moon pad, carrying two lunar landers bound for different corners of our cosmic neighbor. While Firefly's Blue Ghost and ispace's RESILIENCE begin their lunar journey, the trusty booster stuck its landing on "Just Read the Instructions" for its fifth successful return. From Apollo to SpaceX, Pad 39A keeps making history. Here's to the next 100. Source: SpaceX

FIREFLY HITS $9.8B VALUATION AFTER HISTORIC LUNAR LANDING Firefly Aerospace, the first private company to land on the moon, saw its value soar past $9.8 billion after shares jumped over 50% in their NASDAQ debut. CEO Jason Kim says the next frontier is building power plants and charging stations on the lunar surface. The Texas-based team’s Blue Ghost lander marked its first-ever spacecraft mission in March. Firefly is also expanding work with the Pentagon, including potential roles in the Golden Dome missile defense program. Source: Reuters

Just over 4 days on the Moon's surface and #BlueGhost is checking off several science milestones! 8 out of 10 NASA payloads, including LPV, EDS, NGLR, RAC, RadPC, LuGRE, LISTER, and SCALPSS, have already met their mission objectives with more to come. Lunar PlanetVac for example successfully collected, transferred, and sorted lunar soil from the Moon using pressurized nitrogen gas. Congrats to the Honeybee Robotics, a Blue Origin Company and NASA team! Follow along for more #BGM1 updates:

For the first time since 1972, astronauts are on their way to the moon. NASA's Artemis 2 mission successfully launched last night and will go on a 10 day mission, though they won't land on the moon this time, instead looping around it and then back to Earth. This mission is part of NASA's preparations for deep-space missions - with landings on the surface and even a lunar base being planned in the coming years. David Harper reports.

🌕 14 days to lunar landing. After more than 1.1 million km through deep space, our RESILIENCE lander, TENACIOUS rover, and customer payloads are now just 2 weeks from the surface of the Moon. ispace engineers in our Mission Control Center in Tokyo and Mission Control Room in Luxembourg are preparing for final descent - and what could become a historic moment for commercial lunar exploration. The countdown is on. Stay with us! #ispace #VentureMoon #HAKUTO_R #RESILINCE #TENACIOUS #LunarExploration #Moon #M2Landing

Chandrayaan-3, India’s third lunar exploration mission takes off from Sriharikota,Andhra Pradesh. 🚀LVM3 Launch Vehicle Mk III takes the Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft to Geo Transfer Orbit (GTO). 🌝#Chandrayaan3 consists of an indigenous propulsion module, lander module, and a rover with an objective of developing and demonstrating new technologies required for inter-planetary missions. The propulsion module will carry the lander and rover from injection orbit to till 100 km lunar orbit. It also carries a Spectro-polarimetry of Habitable Planetary Earth (SHAPE) payload to study the spectral and polarimetric measurements of earth from the lunar orbit. ISRO is bringing the Moon closer to us !

Developed at NASA Langley, SCALPSS, or Stereo Cameras for Lunar Plume-Surface Studies, will fly on four commercial lunar landers in 2028 as part of NASA’s Moon Base Program. The instrument helps researchers understand crater formation and the characteristics of ejected materials during landings—critical insight as larger landers touch down closer together. Last year, SCALPSS captured this first‑of‑its‑kind imagery during Firefly’s Blue Ghost Mission 1. Listen as Moon Base Program Manager Carlos García-Galán talked about the importance of SCALPSS during the lander announcement on June 30. Learn more about NASA's Moon Base Program:

.Firefly Aerospace is preparing to launch a lunar lander to the far side of the Moon, and there is a significant monetization opportunity there, says CEO Jason Kim. “We’ll be able to sell that data commercially just like we did on Blue Ghost Mission one over five years, and it’s gonna help NASA scientists understand the physical futures of the moon. Commercial companies can buy the data so that they can survey where the best place is to mine for minerals.” Kim also points to rising demand for future moon bases, where the same data becomes critical for deciding where to build and how to operate.
