Tokyo-based company ispace is working towards a large project to start its lunar program as it attempts to land the first-ever commercial lunar M1 lander later this month. It aims to deliver government as well as privately-owned payloads to the Moon's surface as the upcoming mission.
The main idea of the brand is to focus on lunar exploration with the goal to become what the company describes as a “gateway for the private sector to bring their business to the Moon.” The Mission 1 Lander is the first-ever mission to the brand's program known as Hakuto-R. It is made to provide a low-cost delivery service to the moon as it deploys payloads onto the surface.
