Blue Ghost Mission 1

Blue Ghost was Firefly Aerospace's first lunar lander, contracted under NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) program to carry ten science and technology payloads to Mare Crisium under task order 19D. The mission concluded with a successful soft landing on 2 March 2025.

Alongside Blue Ghost, the flight carried ispace's RESILIENCE lander and its onboard Tenacious mini rover - ispace's second lunar lander mission. SpaceX used a purpose-built dual-payload carrying structure to fit both landers in the fairing, the first time two deep-space landers had launched together on a single vehicle.

The flight was the 100th Falcon 9 launch from Kennedy Space Center's Launch Complex 39A.
