Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--After some months of litigation, the U.S. Court of Federal Claims recently denied Blue Origin LLC's (Kent, Washington) protest of the award to SpaceX (Hawthorne, California) for the Human Landing System portion of NASA's Artemis program to return to the Moon, according to floridatoday.com.
This $2.9 billion program win will allow SpaceX to develop its Starship program to provide the vehicle for transporting astronauts from lunar orbit down to the surface and back. Blue Origin expressed its disappointment in the decision and its concerns about the procurement process, but said it would not attempt any further appeals at this time.
