  • Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost, a privately funded lunar lander, successfully touched down on the Moon.
  • The lander delivered a drill, vacuum, and other scientific instruments for Nasa experiments.
  • This marks a significant milestone for commercial lunar exploration and paves the way for future astronaut missions.
  • Blue Ghost is the first private spacecraft to achieve a soft, upright landing on the Moon, a feat previously accomplished by only five nations.
  • Two other private companies, Intuitive Machines and ispace, plan to land their spacecraft on the Moon in the coming months.
