Peregrine Mission One, or the Peregrine Lunar Lander flight 01, is a lunar lander built by Astrobotic Technology, selected as a part of NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS). It was launched 8 January 2024, at 2:18 am EST by United Launch Alliance (ULA) aboard the maiden flight of the Vulcan Centaur. The lander carries multiple payloads, with a total payload mass capacity of 90 kg. It is the first US-built lunar lander to launch since the crewed Lunar Module from the Apollo program; however, a fault occurred shortly after separation from the rocket and the attempt to land on the moon had to be abandoned.
