Firefly Bids Farewell to Its Lunar Lander After 14 Days on the Moon
In addition to these payloads, Texas-based Firefly performed some work of its own on the Moon. Blue Ghost captured a total solar eclipse from the Moon on March 14, while Earth simultaneously experienced a total lunar eclipse. Two days later, Blue Ghost caught a lunar sunset, with Earth appearing over the lunar horizon.
Here’s the secret to how Firefly was able to nail its first lunar landing
The Blue Ghost spacecraft, named for a species of firefly, took eclipse chasing to new heights. Not only did it see the Earth block the Sun from an unexplored location on the Moon, but the lander fell into shadow for 2 hours and 16 minutes, about 18 times longer than the longest possible total solar eclipse on the Earth.
