Firefly Aerospace Inc. (NASDAQ:FLY) said Wednesday it is collaborating with Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA) to enable rapid, on-orbit data processing for its Ocula Moon imaging service.

The effort integrates an Nvidia Jetson module into high-resolution telescopes developed by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, ahead of deployment on Firefly's Elytra orbital vehicle.

The Ocula service will be activated aboard Elytra during Blue Ghost Mission 2, targeted to launch no earlier than late 2026. Elytra will initially function as a transfer vehicle and communications relay for Firefly's Blue Ghost lander.

It will then operate in lunar orbit for about five years, capturing continuous imagery to support mapping, mineral detection, and reconnaissance.

Firefly said Ocula data will be processed onboard Elytra and transmitted back to Earth using the Jetson module and its SciTec AI software.

The approach is designed to reduce bandwidth constraints by converting raw data into real-time, actionable insights before transmission.
