Blue Origin and Dynetics are challenging the award going to SpaceX.

This is the entitled world of government contractors and it is annoying.

Blue Origin - Would cost more and give you less in return

Dynetics - Did not even meet the requirements in their bid.

Screw it. Let Musk build his own space agency and launch facilities from scratch. Cut out the government middle man.

Elon doesn’t need NASA to get to Mars or the Moon but NASA can’t even get to low earth orbit without Elon.

NASA is so full of shite. They never sent a man to the moon either.

Elon just completed a round trip to the ISS this morning. What has Bezos done?

Wasn’t Musk working on Starship before the damn contract was announced? I doubt he stops moving forward now.

Bezos’ Blue Origin is working on a philosophy of perfection on paper meanwhile SpaceX believes in rapid testing iterations where they can analyze real data. I’ll take SpaceX’s method as it has allowed them to already launch and return at least 2 crews to the ISS. Meanwhile Bezos has barely gotten a penis shaped rocket to the Karman line.

Agreed.

I wonder if Bezos is just doing the Far Left's bidding and all of this is really just a feint to slow down the program.

Chi-comms race to space; American commies always have a hardon to reduce/cancel the space program - you know: 'We can send a man to the moon but we can't feed the hungry children here on Earth!'...

Blue Origin also argues the decision extends SpaceX's "monopolistic" control in space exploration.


This is rich coming from Bezos. frick that dude. I thought he was all about “the best company win”. He’s just pissy that Elon has a better product and spacex is actually making money.

Billionaires fighting over government checks. I guess they really aren't that much different than poor folks.

SpaceX will be just fine. Hell, Elon will probably put people on Mars before Bezos gets a rocket to orbit the earth.
