Congrats to @fireflyspace on Blue Ghost's successful Moon landing! A huge win for lunar exploration – there are now TWO Texas-made lunar landers on the surface and a third on the way.

We have confirmation #BlueGhost stuck the landing! Firefly just became the first commercial company in history to achieve a fully successful Moon landing. This small step on the Moon represents a giant leap in commercial exploration. Congratulations to the entire Firefly team, our mission partners, and our @NASA customers for this incredible feat that paves the way for future missions to the Moon and Mars. Standby for the first image, expected in the next 30 minutes! #BGM1

5 days into our mission and we've traveled 220,000 miles while downlinking 1.4 GB of data! There's a long road ahead, but our #GhostRiders have already accomplished so much! #BGM1 (Mission operations animation courtesy of @ANSYS STK / LSAS Tec)

For the aviation enthusiasts out there, the Tornado F2 is coming together. The long-lead items, like the egress system pyro, will ultimately drive certification. I expect first flight in 2025.
