Firefly Partners with Volta to Demonstrate Lunar Power Grid Technologies

Firefly Aerospace has partnered with Volta Space Technologies to host the LightPort payload on its Blue Ghost Mission 2 lunar lander. The mission will demonstrate technologies to survive the lunar night and support a lunar orbit power grid. Volta’s LightGrid is a network of satellites in lunar orbit that collect solar energy and transmit it via laser to receivers on the Moon’s surface. The partnership marks an important step forward for Volta and the future of lunar infrastructure, according to Firefly CEO Jason Kim. The mission is scheduled to launch in 2025 and will provide insights into the geological properties and minerals on the Moon, enhance lunar surface mobility, and uncover new insights about the origins of the universe.
