As imagens da Blue Ghost 1 chegando à Lua

Nave Blue Ghost chega à Lua. Com isso, a Firefly Aerospace é a segunda empresa privada a alcançar o feito e a primeira a pousar na posição vertical

This undated image released by Firefly Aerospace Blue Ghost captures Earth reflecting off the solar panel with the Moon on the horizon. More than fifty years passed between the last Apollo mission and America's return to the lunar surface, when the first ever private lander touched down last February. Now, starting March 2, two more missions are set to follow within a single week -- marking a bold push by NASA and its industry partners to make Moon landings a routine part of space exploration.

This handout photograph taken and released by Firefly Aerospace on March 2, 2025, shows the Moon's surface, Earth on the horizon, and Blue Ghost's top deck with its solar panel, X-band antenna (L), and LEXI payload (R) in the view. A US company successfully landed its spacecraft on the Moon on March 2, 2025, making it only the second private lander to achieve this milestone, a live webcast from mission control showed. Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost Mission 1 touched down at 3:34 am US Eastern Time (0834 GMT) near Mons Latreille, a volcanic formation in Mare Crisium on the Moon's northeastern near side.
