The Astrobotic Peregrine robotic spacecraft are a class of lunar landers designed and operated by Astrobotic Technology to deliver small payloads to the surface of the Moon. NASA has awarded three Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) task orders to Astrobotic for Peregrine-class missions. The first mission, Peregrine Mission One, launched in January, 2024. That mission experienced a propellant leak shortly after the lander was deployed into orbit, and did not reach the Moon. The other two Peregrine task orders were awarded to Astrobotic in June, 2026.
