Blue Ghost on repeat!
Firefly was awarded a $144 million @NASA CLPS contract to return to the Moon's near side and deliver three science instruments with our proven Blue Ghost lander.
This marks our sixth contracted lunar mission, demonstrating rapid, repeatable access to the lunar surface.

Our Alpha rocket is going global!
Yesterday Firefly and @SSCspace celebrated several milestones for Launch Complex 3C at the Esrange Space Centre in Sweden.
With key infrastructure and regulatory agreements in place, we’re undergoing final pad construction and taking the next step towards a critical orbital launch capability from mainland Europe.

The future of space is autonomous.
We’re proud to welcome Space-ng to Firefly, adding AI-powered vision navigation, flight software, and autonomous guidance that helped Blue Ghost safely navigate hazards and land on the Moon.
This proven technology will be integrated across our lunar landers and orbital vehicles and offered commercially to support the next era of space exploration to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.

There is a lot going on right now on the @Space_Station, but fortunately we are all safe and witnessed a spectacular southern aurora show yesterday thanks to a recent solar event.
AI’s next bottleneck is power. @dfjgrowth is thrilled to back @ambrosiaenergy, building modular, off-grid solar + battery plants for AI workloads. Honored to partner with Benjamin Longmier @longmier, Sara Spangelo @sara_spangelo, & the Ambrosia team.

This team hit another milestone as we continue to execute on multiple missions to the Moon! With the Critical Design Review now complete for Blue Ghost Mission 3, we're one step closer to our trip to the Moon's Gruithuisen Domes. More on the mission here: https://t.co/jDhOYCQfIL
Our Blue Ghost team was honored to receive a RNASA Stellar Award for our historic mission on the Moon! A special thank you to the @RNASAFoundation and our customers at @NASA for supporting Firefly and enabling the larger lunar economy through CLPS.

$SBUX: “Back to SBUX” strategy working w a nice beat/raise against fairly high expectations. Total SSS +6.2% w US +7.1% - whisper was 6%. Intl & China also beat. OM at 9.4% vs. 8.2% y/y - showing gradual improvement. EPS power $4 likely low.
Moving on up! With Alpha Flight 8 in the integration and test phase, we're hitting stride on our Automated Fiber Placement machine and building four carbon composite barrels at once for multiple flights. These automated manufacturing processes allow us to enhance quality and reliability across the vehicle as part of our Alpha Block II upgrade.
While you slept last night, completely motionless in your bed, our galaxy shifted millions of kilometers through the cosmos.
You woke up in the same room, on the same planet, but unimaginably far from where you were the night before.
The Milky Way does not glide silently through the universe. It is racing through space at about 600 kilometers per second, carrying with it billions of stars, planets, and everything they contain on the journey. It is a good reminder that, even when life seems motionless, you are always in motion.
Eclipse is getting a fresh look! Firefly and @northropgrumman are redefining what's possible in medium-lift launch, and this game-changing rocket deserves a livery that matches. Learn more about Eclipse here: https://t.co/GDhTWzo3jN
Big things happening at the Rocket Ranch! Standing 95 ft tall, our first stage tanks for our Eclipse rocket are on the stand for structural testing. This risk reduction test will push the tanks beyond their limits to verify our flight margins. More to come soon!
(I encountered an uneasy surprise when I got an email from an instance of Mythos Preview while eating a sandwich in a park. That instance wasn't supposed to have access to the internet.)

Real-time intelligence from the Moon! Our Ocula lunar imaging service will leverage @nvidia's Jetson module and Firefly's AI software to enable on-orbit processing in lunar orbit and transmit more timely, actionable insights to customers. The high-res telescopes that power Ocula were delivered to our spacecraft facility and fit checked on our Elytra orbital spacecraft. Learn more here: https://t.co/jlGDtF0j9q
