Mission Summary
Blue Ghost Mission 1 will deliver 10 science and technology instruments to the lunar surface as part of NASA’s Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) initiative. Upon launching on January 15, Blue Ghost is spending approximately 45 days traveling to the Moon, allowing ample time to conduct health checks on each subsystem and begin payload science. Blue Ghost is set to land in Mare Crisium on March 2 and operate payloads for a complete lunar day (about 14 Earth days). On March 14, Firefly expects to capture high-definition imagery of a total eclipse when the Earth blocks the sun above the Moon’s horizon. Blue Ghost will then capture the lunar sunset on March 16, providing data on how lunar dust levitates due to solar influences and creates a lunar horizon glow first documented by Eugene Cernan on Apollo 17. Following sunset, Blue Ghost will operate several hours into the lunar night.

Of course none of this happened, and the people involved with it are just a part of the Grand Conspiracy. :meds:

Interesting how private industry can out pace NASA by a factor of about 10x.

Hopefully DOGE will also address them in the quest for efficiency.

Nicely done, Firefly. "Like a leaf on the wind."

I'm a fan of all scientific expeditions to the moon.
Less excited about delivering figurines and sculptures like that Odysseus lander from a couple years ago.

Anyone other than myself read Sex On the Moon:

Description. From the bestselling author of The Accidental Billionaires and Bringing Down the House, this is the incredible true story of how a college student and two female accomplices stole some of the rarest objects on the planet—moon rocks—from an "impregnable" high-tech vault.

I can't remember the precise gist (jizz?) of what this guy and GF did-whether they put the rocks under their bed or in bed with them when they fucked-thus the title of the book.

Since reading the book-it was a piss poor read IMO-that's where I get back with anything related to space flight, the moon, Space Force, etc. I hope those two poor bastards that we may of may never get back from the space station are banging their brains out.

Speaking of space, the moon, etc., why is it that no one seems to give a fuck about this:

RACK all Firefly resets. Alan Tudyk's recent work in Resident Alien on Netflix is most definitely worth checking out.

Panspermia is the hypothesis that life spread throughout the universe from other planets. The word comes from the Greek words pan meaning "all" and sperma meaning, "seed."

Can you imagine Slap's ejaculate seedling life on Titan or some shit and a billion years later a humanoid race is worshipping him as their god?

WASHINGTON ‒ Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he's ready to work with President Donald Trump to negotiate a peace deal with Russia ‒ effectively ending a standoff between the leaders that exploded Monday evening when the U.S. said it would stop supplying the country with weapons.

They play the ridiculous "wonderment" music with it to get you into the right frame of mind to be lied to.

It's almost as laffable as this one from a few years ago...
