    "excerpt": "Posted by Eric Brothers, Editor - Manufacturing Group Firefly Aerospace , a space and defense technology company, announced a $144 million NASA Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) contract to deliver a rapid mission to the moon with Firefly’s Blue Ghost lunar lander. This marks the company’s sixth contracted lunar mission to date with the goal of demonstrating repeatable access to the lunar surface on an accelerated timeline. Targeted to launch in 2028, Firefly will design, build, test, and deliver the mission in approximately two years, half the time of its Blue Ghost Mission 1 , by using its Blue Ghost lander design and operations. For this mission, Blue Ghost will return to the moon’s near side, similar to where Mission 1 landed, and deliver three NASA science instruments, including the Laser Retroreflector Array (LRA) to enable precision laser ranging, the Linear Energy Transfer Spectrometer (LETS) to measure the radiation environment, and the Stereo Cameras for Lunar Plume Surface Studies (SCALPSS) to further study plume-surface interactions during touchdown. “This latest mission award will help prove that commercial lunar delivery can be rapid, repeatable, and reliable – exactly what’s needed to enable a permanent lunar presence and support NASA’s Moon Base initiative and Artemis program,” said Jason Kim, CEO of Firefly Aerospace. “With amplified demand signal from...",
