Blue Ghost conducted the DOI on the far side of the Moon, which caused a communications blackout with Earth. The spacecraft was on the correct flight path when communications with Blue Ghost resumed around 20 minutes after the burn, and the lander coasted for around 30 minutes until it reached an altitude of roughly 20 km over the lunar surface.

Initial data shows Blue Ghost touched down within its 100-meter landing target next to the Mons Latreille, a volcanic feature in the Mare Crisium, a large basin on the near-side of the moon. Firefly hosted a late-night watch party at Haute Spot, a Cedar Park concert venue, where hundreds of employees and guests watched a livestream of the landing.
