On its way to the moon, Firefly Aerospace\u2019s Blue Ghost<\/a> lunar lander has taken its first space pictures as it orbits Earth.<\/p>\n

The Texas-based company has been sharing the breathtaking videos and images in the weeks since Blue Ghost\u2019s launch on January 15<\/a>. The lander was part of a shared SpaceX ride that also carried the private lunar lander Resilience, built by Japanese company Ispace. Packed with science payloads for NASA, Blue Ghost is taking a long, \u201cscenic route<\/a>\u201d to the moon\u2014and the new visuals prove just how stunning of a route it is.<\/p>\n

Blue Ghost captured footage<\/a> of the Earth eclipsing the sun, as well as other dramatic \u201cBlue Marble<\/a>\u201d views of our planet from space. On January 31, it recorded<\/a> the Earth eclipsing the moon.<\/p>\n
