United States - February 24, 2025 Firefly Aerospace has released breathtaking video evidence of its Blue Ghost lander capturing stunning footage of the Moon, a celestial performance that unfolded during its third lunar orbit maneuver on February 24. This pivotal move ushered the spacecraft into a near-circular low lunar orbit, offering an unprecedented glimpse of the lunar landscape from a mere 100 kilometers above its surface. The released footage, accelerated to ten times its original speed, showcases the far side of the Moon in mesmerizing detail. At the heart of the frame, Blue Ghost’s RCS thrusters hold center stage, flanked by radiator panels on either side. These panels, operating flawlessly, sway in a rhythmic dance to shield the lander’s subsystems from the harsh extremes of lunar temperatures. The video marks a triumph for Firefly Aerospace, illuminating the shadowy expanse of the Moon’s hidden face with every passing second of this extraordinary flyby.
