The Alpha team is still working with the range to determine our next launch window for Message in a Booster. We've been up against unfavorable wind conditions that exceed safety limits for some critical assets within SLDelta30. More to come soon! www.youtube.com/watch?v=pV1j...

Firefly Aerospace Successfully Completes 14 Days of Surface Operations on the Moon All 10 NASA CLPS instruments successfully operated on the lunar surface and collected their science data during Blue Ghost Mission 1.

That's a wrap for #BGM1! After downlinking more than 119 GB of data, including 51 GB of science and technology data for NASA, we're beyond proud to say Firefly met all our mission objectives.

one step closer to Alpha #FLTA006! Lockheed Martin’s LM 400 is now integrated on Alphas payload adaptor. Up next, we’ll encapsulate the payload in our fairing, transport it to the pad, and mate to Alpha. Stay tuned as we get ready to launch on Sat, 3/15 @ 8:25am CST! fireflyspace.com/missions/alp...

This includes deploying Lunar PlanetVac and sampling lunar regolith, deploying the Electrodynamic Dust Shield and demonstrating dust mitigation, capturing images from SCALPSS, and continuing operations for the other payloads.

#BlueGhost has been busy since parking on the Moon! Just in the last two days, the data we've downlinked jumped from 27 GB to 57 GB as we continue @NASA payload operations.

Watch Firefly land on the Moon! After identifying surface hazards and selecting a safe landing site, #BlueGhost landed directly over the target in Mare Crisium. A historic moment on March 2 we'll never forget. We have Moon dust on our boots! #BGM1
