When

2028

A rendering of Firefly’s Blue Ghost lunar lander and a rover developed for the company’s third mission to the Moon as part of NASA’s CLPS (Commercial Lunar Payload Services) initiative.

Firefly Aerospace’s Blue Ghost Mission 3 will utilize Firefly’s Blue Ghost lunar lander, Elytra Dark orbital vehicle, and a rover to investigate the unique composition of the Gruithuisen Domes – a part of the Moon that has never been explored.

Part of the agency’s broader Artemis campaign, Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) aims to conduct science on the Moon for the benefit of all, including experiments and demos that support missions with crew on the lunar surface.
