We Open Access to the Moon for the Progress of Humanity™ Current Lunar Mission: IM-3 & Lunar Data Relay Satellite
Shaping the Future of U.S. Space Manufacturing We've partnered with Space Forge to provide expertise that informs the design of our Earth reentry vehicle, enabling the precise return of semiconductors from orbit to Earth. Learn more: intuitivemachines.com/post/intuitive…

#OTD in Space History 56 years ago, humans first set foot on the Moon, July 20, 1969, during the #Apollo11 Mission. On July 20, 2024, Houston honors the next generation of lunar pioneers by naming it Intuitive Machines Day. Image Credit: First Image: NASA




“Delivering life-improving pharmaceuticals from orbit is only valuable if we can recover and process them on Earth.” We’re building the tech and the talent to do just that with @SanJacCollege. Learn more: intuitivemachines.com/post/intuitive…

We’re expanding at the Houston Spaceport. With new government contracts and growing commercial demand, Intuitive Machines is scaling production, testing, and mission operations to support the next era of lunar and orbital infrastructure. Learn more: intuitivemachines.com/post/intuitive…


Only one Starr is beaming "peace and love" across space today. Happy Birthday, @ringostarrmusic, from your friends at Intuitive Machines and @goonhillyorg. Here's how the Moon bounce worked: intuitivemachines.com/post/ringo-sta…
This Independence Day, we honor the American spirit that put landers on the Moon—and keeps driving us farther. At Intuitive Machines, that spirit powers everything we build: ✅ Artemis-ready Lunar Terrain Vehicle solutions ✅ High-bandwidth communications networks ✅…
16 Years of Lunar Legacy 🌕 NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter launched on this day in 2009, and just five days later, the LROC team captured these first images of the Moon. Now part of Intuitive Machines at our Super-Moon facility in Arizona, the LROC team continues to shape…


American-made, built for the Moon. This #FlagDay, we celebrate American innovation powering a globally built, commercially driven autonomous lunar terrain vehicle. From our cleanroom to lunar surface, we're building for exploration that goes beyond boundaries.

Proud to support our fellow lunar explorers. Cheering you on from Houston, Texas!
☕🌕 A big thank you to our friends at @Int_Machines for the thoughtful fresh coffee delivery to our Mission Control Center in Tokyo! As ispace engineers prepare for landing day, your message of support and generosity gave us renewed energy! From one lunar explorer to another,…
New milestone ✅ After a year of engineering, testing, and design, the Moon RACER team held the Preliminary Design Review (PDR) for the Lunar Terrain Vehicle Services contract. This milestone tests whether the vehicle meets NASA's needs for the Artemis missions. Learn more:…
How it started ➡️ How it’s going From a bare frame by @RoushOfficial to a lunar vehicle—Moon RACER is real, tested, and evolving fast.


On #NationalAstronautDay, we honor the legends who walked on the Moon—and the future explorers they'll inspire. The Moon RACER LTV was shaped by Apollo astronauts, tested by suited crews on Earth, and built for astronaut safety, mobility, and efficiency. This is more than a…

From Apollo to autonomous exploration—innovation drives us forward. On #NationalSpaceDay, we honor the giants who took humanity’s first steps beyond Earth—and carry that legacy forward with bold, new missions. The future of space isn’t distant. We’re building it—right now.…


What does driving on the Moon really feel like? Our new LTV simulator is live—bringing simulated lunar gravity, terrain, and tech to life. Moon RACER is just getting started. Learn more: intuitivemachines.com/post/moon-race…
Intuitive Machines has been awarded up to $10M from the Space Exploration and Research Fund (SEARF) to drive space innovation. The grant supports the development of an Earth reentry vehicle and orbital fabrication lab—critical tech for microgravity biomanufacturing and future…
Self-driving goes lunar. On a simulated moonscape right here on Earth, the Moon RACER team just pulled off a major milestone — autonomous navigation using cutting-edge LiDAR and perception tech. Read more: intuitivemachines.com/post/moon-race…
Moon RACER has evolved: Round two of Crew Assessment Testing and Safety Phase (CATS II) is complete. Check out what we’ve completed in just over a year: intuitivemachines.com/post/moon-race…


Mother Earth, from our last visit to the Moon. Today, we celebrate the planet that keeps pushing us to dream bigger and do more—here and beyond! #EarthDay

We have selected @SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket for IM-4, our fourth lunar delivery mission. IM-4 is expected to include the launch of two lunar data relay satellites—a key step in commercializing the Moon. Read more: intuitivemachines.com/post/intuitive…
During our hearing this week, Stephen Altemus, President & CEO of @Int_Machines, highlighted China's ambitious space objectives and expressed his support for NASA's CLPS, which promotes entrepreneurial innovation and positions us to outpace competitors in the global space race.
