The space-launch and landing systems sectors need to develop into an industry, along with ancillary firms that will support this new industry. This will promote competition that will drive down prices and increase volume. The good news is, today, on the second of March (as I’m starting to write this), one of those firms, with an unlikely name, landed an amazing act-1 of this evolution.
Firefly Aerospace's "Blue Ghost" lander dropped out of lunar orbit and swooped to a rocket-powered touchdown early Sunday (March 2), pulling off the first fully successful moon landing by a commercially built and operated robotic spacecraft.
