With Mission LITTLE PRINCE, Interstellar Lab is looking to grow flowers on the Moon in transparent controlled-environment plant pods and capture data and pictures of this first step towards making any life multi-planetary. The company partnered with Astrolab to install the payloads on the lunar surface with FLEX (Flexible Logistics and Exploration) rover.
As part of Astrolab’s Mission 1, Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX) will transport Astrolab’s FLEX rover to the lunar surface. SpaceX will use the Starship launch and landing system for this mission as soon as mid-2026. Following landing on the Moon, FLEX will deploy payloads for Interstellar Lab and other Astrolab customers. SpaceX and Astrolab expect Mission 1 to be completed as soon as mid-2026.
