The Peregrine Mission One lunar landing mission is due to launch on Monday 8 January 2024, and you can watch the live stream on line.
Peregrine Mission One will be the first ever commercial landing mission to the Moon.
The private spaceflight mission carries multiple scientific payloads from NASA and other institutions around the world, as well as several cultural items.
The mission is due to take off from Cape Canaveral in Florida at 2:18 EST (07:18 GMT).
The spacecraft will remain in low-Earth orbit to check out its systems before heading towards the Moon.
Once it arrives, Peregrine Mission One will orbit the Moon for several weeks. Should everything check out as nominal, it will then go on to land on 23 February.
The mission is carrying several NASA experiments.
The Peregrine Mission One’s operations are intended to prepare for the Artemis programme, which is targeting a putting human feet on the surface of the Moon by the end of the decade.
The lander will be carriying a range of payloads that includes a lunar rover, science experiments, messages from Earth and even human remains.
Astrobotic are already well underway with planning their next mission: transporting NASA’s Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover (VIPER) to the lunar south pole on board their larger Griffin landing platform.
