A private lunar lander has fallen silent on the moon after successfully completing a two-week mission for NASA. Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost lander was carrying a drill, vacuum and other experiments for NASA when it touched down on the moon earlier this month.

It's lights out for the first private lunar lander to pull off a fully successful moon mission. Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost lander fell silent over the weekend, wrapping up two weeks of science experiments for NASA.

Blue Ghost, a Texas-built lunar lander, sent its final message home from the moon’s surface Sunday before powering down and concluding a historic journey.
