According to recent reports, the two new moon landers, "Blue Ghost" from Firefly Aerospace and "Resilience" from ispace, launched successfully and are currently en route to the moon, with both companies confirming communication with their respective spacecraft; however, their landing attempts are still a few months away and the full status of their functionality will be confirmed upon reaching the lunar surface. 
Key points about the landers:
  • Blue Ghost:
    Aims to land on Mare Crisium, carrying scientific instruments to study the lunar surface including a "Lunar PlanetVac" for soil sample collection. 


  • Resilience:
    An improved version of ispace's previous lander that crashed on the moon, featuring a small rover and experiments to study water electrolysis.
