What is the Blue Ghost spacecraft and what milestone could it achieve?
The Blue Ghost is a lunar lander developed by Texas-based Firefly Aerospace that has captured stunning new footage of the far side of the moon from about 75 miles above the surface. Currently on a 45-day journey through space, this commercial spacecraft is scheduled to land on the moon in early March. If successful, Blue Ghost would achieve a historic milestone as the first American spacecraft to land intact and upright on the moon since the Apollo 17 mission in 1972. This represents a significant advancement in commercial lunar exploration capabilities after a gap of over 50 years since the last successful American moon landing.
