SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket launched two private moon landers, signaling growing private interest in lunar exploration. The Blue Ghost lander from Firefly Aerospace and the Resilience lander from ispace embarked on separate routes for their months-long journey to the Moon. The missions aim to establish a sustained human presence on the Moon and reduce lunar mission costs. This comes amid renewed global interest in lunar exploration, with NASA's Artemis program planning a lunar landing in 2027. The Falcon 9 rocket's first stage successfully landed on a droneship in the Atlantic Ocean.
