NASA says it has penciled in Blue Origin's Blue Moon cargo lander to deliver a scientific payload to the moon as early as this summer.

Firefly Aerospace released video of the Blue Ghost lunar lander as it made its final descent and touched down on the surface of the moon.

The lunar lander, called Blue Ghost, settled onto the Moon's surface at 2:34 am CST (3:34 am EST; 08:34 UTC). A few dozen engineers in Firefly's mission control room monitored real-time data streaming down from a quarter-million miles away.
