Three lunar landers are currently en route to the moon, marking a significant development in the modern moon race. Alongside Firefly's Blue Ghost, two other spacecraft, Resilience and Athena, are making their way towards their lunar destinations.
Resilience, developed by Japan-based Ispace, is on a mission to redeem itself following a failed landing attempt in 2023. The spacecraft, guided by the motto 'Never Quit the Lunar Quest,' is taking a slower trajectory compared to Blue Ghost and is expected to land in the spring. Ispace has set its sights on Mare Frigoris, a 750-mile-long plain located in the moon's far northern region.
