The mission, aptly named “Ghost Riders in the Sky,” touched down in Mare Crisium, a large impact site filled with basaltic lava on the Moon. Blue Ghost pulled off a precision landing, touching down within a 328-foot (100-meter) target next to a volcanic feature called Mons Latreille.

Firefly Aerospace’s successful touchdown marks a new era of frequent commercial trips to the Moon, paving the way for a long-term human presence on the lunar surface. Before we get too ahead of ourselves, however, we’ve got the ongoing mission to attend to.

Firefly Aerospace’s Blue Ghost lunar lander successfully made a soft touchdown near an ancient volcanic feature on the moon’s near side early Sunday morning.

The lunar lander, called Blue Ghost, settled onto the Moon's surface at 2:34 am CST (3:34 am EST; 08:34 UTC). A few dozen engineers in Firefly's mission control room monitored real-time data streaming down from a quarter-million miles away.

Firefly Aerospace released video of the Blue Ghost lunar lander as it made its final descent and touched down on the surface of the moon.

With Blue Ghost, Firefly Aerospace became the first commercial company to complete a fully successful moon landing, the company said Sunday.

To land Blue Ghost on the moon, Firefly Aerospace laid out 14 major mission milestones from Earth to the lunar surface. To land your own Blue Ghost, you will need to follow 42 steps.
