Firefly's Blue Ghost lunar lander has launched from Kennedy Space Center Pad 39A, and is on a 45-day journey to the moon for NASA.

The article discusses two significant lunar missions launching from Kennedy Space Center. Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost Mission 1 and ispace's HAKUTO-R Mission 2 are set to embark on their journeys to the Moon. Firefly's mission, part of NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) program, aims to deliver scientific instruments to the lunar surface to study the Moon's environment, including its exosphere, thermal properties, and magnetic fields. Meanwhile, ispace, a Japanese company, is launching its second mission to demonstrate the feasibility of commercial lunar landings, with plans to deploy a small rover and other payloads. Both missions represent a new era of lunar exploration, focusing on commercial partnerships and international collaboration to expand our understanding of the Moon and pave the way for future human missions.
