description: "Intuitive Machines rose 0.89%, with its lunar exploration commercial contracts being the core support. Stock price fluctuated significantly around mission events, currently maintaining a moderate uptrend; Firefly Aerospace rose 2.8%, driven by increased demand for commercial rocket launch services leading to valuation recovery, with multiple contract progress announcements recently 🚀Both small space companies lack explosive catalysts. Their performance aligns with the overall market perception of the space sector as &#34;bullish in the long term but highly volatile in the short term,&#34; making them suitable for long-term positioning rather than short-term speculation."
