SpaceX launches two private lunar landers to moon
ai generated text
Recent developments in lunar exploration indicate a significant increase in private sector involvement. Two "rideshare" missions, one led by US-based companies and the other by Japanese companies, aim to replicate the success of Intuitive Machines, a Texas-based company that has already successfully landed on the Moon. These missions will see the launch of two uncrewed landers, the Blue Ghost and Resilience, which will carry 10 NASA science payloads aimed at advancing lunar research.
It's important to challenge ourselves again, after enduring failure and learning from it.
Each milestone we complete will provide valuable data for future missions and ultimately keep the United States and our international partners at the forefront of space exploration.
Firefly is a go for launch. Let's go ghost riders in the sky!
With 10 NASA instruments on this flight, we're conducting scientific investigations... from characterizing Earth's magnetosphere to understanding lunar dust and the Moon's interior structure and thermal properties.
