A Texan company has achieved the second commercial landing on the moon, and did not have the first touch. Success is between a fuzzy private moon and state exploration.
Firefly Aerospace Ghost Lander January 15 has been launched At a space rocket and 45 days passed traveling Moon. Landed on March 2 at GMT in GMT, establishing in one place Great crisisA gentle basin formed by volcanic eruptions three billion years ago.
The blue ghost used to slow down 1.7 kilometers per second per second, 1.7 kilometers per second, and the leg absorbed his legs at 100 feet of his target.

The blue ghost is about 2 meters high, and has 10 scientific tools within the NASA Moon Trade Services program, which use the private sector to perform many experiments before planned suit missions.
Among them, the Moon PlanetVac, who use the explosion of compressed gas, uses and collecting moon dust samples. Radiation hardened computer chips And the Lunar GNSS recipient’s experiment, which contains signs of GPS and Galileo satellite navigation to provide land and time data on the moon.
The plant will work for the moon day – about 14 days of earth – before falling in the dark and closing from 16 March. A Lunar freezing night It will probably be the end of the mission, although other territories have survived unexpectedly.
In February last year, Texas-based intuitive machines He landed his Odysseus spacecraft on the moonBy becoming the first private company, only national spatial agencies achieved a feat. Odes He has prevailed at his side He was at landing, but he was still surprisingly.
Lunar is a host of missions or planning. The rocket of Launch of Blue Blue Ghost was also the role of other commercial moon, Ispack resilience Lander, who wants to touch April. Around Dozen lands It is expected to reach the moon in 2025.
