A Moon Base lander is one step closer to the lunar South Pole.  @astrobotic recently unveiled the Griffin-1 lunar lander, now ready for environmental testing at @nasajpl ahead of its late-2026 launch. Griffin-1 will deliver payloads supporting Moon Base Phase One.

As our FLIP rover is making great progress towards launch, so is its ride to the Moon: @astrobotic’s Griffin-1 lander. Today we got to see that progress up close. Our team participated in an update on the progress of the lander and its payloads, all hitting crucial milestones on their way to the lunar surface.

@NASAMoonBase @blueorigin @NASAAdmin The second @NASAMoonBase mission will fly cargo to the lunar surface aboard the @Astrobotic Griffin lander and the third will deliver payloads chosen through open competition as well as international partners. Both missions are targeted to launch before the end of 2026.

Our team first sketched the idea for our FLIP rover on the flight back from meeting with @astrobotic in late 2024. In that meeting we agreed to launching a rover to the Moon aboard their Griffin Mission One (Griffin-1). Since then, we’ve pretty much stuck to the plan first inked on that whiteboard and have turned dry erase marker into space-ready hardware.

@BartoszEvin @GaryleeGray The solar arrays are also engineered to perform efficiently while using the lightest materials possible. In space missions, every ounce matters when it comes to overall performance and cost 🚀

@GaryleeGray @astrobotic As far as I know they use much more expensive and more efficient element plus all around it to be more durable for such purpose. Nobody would buy for a backyard installation.

Three solar panels in, and the results are looking powerful⚡️(humans for scale). Griffin-1 is marching towards its departure for environmental testing, a critical phase that proves it’s ready to withstand the harsh conditions of launch and space.
