>Blue Ghost landed softly on the moon on March 2, becoming just the second private spacecraft ever to do so. It's carrying 10 NASA science instruments, including one called SCALPSS that was designed to document how a spacecraft's thruster plumes interact with lunar dirt and rock during touchdown.


>We learned today (March 13) that SCALPSS was up to the job, capturing unprecedented footage of Blue Ghost's descent and touchdown in the Mare Crisium ("Sea of Crises"), a volcanic basin on the moon's near side.


Kinda cool heh. Bit slowpoke in seeing it.
