The launch is part of the Commercial Lunar Payload Services ( CLPS ) program to deliver scientific payloads to the surface of the moon.

Resilience is the second mission for ispace's Hakuto-R program, and will take four times longer to complete its mission.

Blue Origin won NASA 's second HLS contract, tapping the company's Blue Moon lander to deliver astronauts to the lunar surface for missions beyond Artemis 3.

The successful maiden launch of Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket Jan. 12 puts it on course for a possible 2025 launch as well.
