Firefly's "Blue Moon" and ispace's "Resilience" are the latest in an ongoing push to gain private-sector experience exploring the moon.

The article from MSN discusses a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launch that successfully carried two lunar landers into space. This mission, part of NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) program, aimed to deliver scientific and technological payloads to the Moon. The landers, named Nova-C by Intuitive Machines and another by Astrobotic, are set to explore different aspects of the lunar surface, including water ice detection and radiation measurements.
