On Friday, Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost lunar lander continues to take breathtaking images from the surface of the moon.
It sent back amazing photos of last night's "Blood Moon" total lunar eclipse from Mare Crisium, or "Sea of Crises," which is a vast basin on the northeastern region of the moon's near side.
Blue Ghost landed on the surface of the moon on March 2 and sent back stunning photos and videos of its moon excursion.
In these most recent photos, Blue Ghost captured Earth blocking the sun during the eclipse on March 14.
It formed a bright ring of light in the dark lunar skies.
"Blue Ghost got her first diamond ring!" Firefly Aerospace announced in an update accompanying the photo.
Earth shines over the moon in amazing photos from private Blue Ghost lander. 'We're all in that picture.'
"This marks the first time in history a commercial company was actively operating on the moon and able to observe a total solar eclipse where the Earth blocks the sun and casts a shadow on the lunar surface," the company wrote in the update.
"This phenomenon occurred simultaneously as the lunar eclipse we witnessed on Earth."
