Falcon 9 Block 5 | Blue Ghost Lunar Lander Mission 1 & Hakuto-R M2 “Resilience”
SpaceX | United States of AmericaKennedy Space Center, FL, USA
Jan. 15, 2025, 6:11 a.m.
Status: Launch Successful
Mission:
Blue Ghost is a commercial lunar lander developed by Firefly Aerospace for NASA’s CLPS program. Blue Ghost is designed to bring up to 155kg of payload to the lunar surface. It will land at Mare Crisium in the Crisium Basin and is designed to last 14 days before freezing in the lunar night. Resilience is the second mission of the Hakuto-R commercial lunar lander developed by private Japanese company ispace. The lander will carry a small rover developed by ispace to perform studies on the moon's surface. The rover is also expected to collect lunar regolith as part of a contract with NASA signed in 2020, in which companies will collect materials on the moon and then transfer ownership "in situ" to the agency.
