Dynetics accepted the decision.
So GAO confirmed NASA was well within its rights. SpaceX was entitled to the human lunar landing contract. After all, Blue Horizon is way behind in the space race. And their bid for the contract was way too high in the first place.
Bezos sues NASA
On Monday, Bezos’ attorneys filed a complaint in Federal court.
A NASA spokesperson says that “officials are currently reviewing details of the case.”
Bezos has also started a social media campaign attacking SpaceX and belittling NASA’s decision to use them for moon missions. The infographic campaign is very like the one he waged against Richard Branson when Virgin Galactic was able to jump ahead of Bezos in space tourism.
He claimed that Branson’s windows weren’t big enough and the Virgin Galactic wasn’t flying high enough.
This new Federal lawsuit shows that Jeff Bezos’ is not backing down. And that he doesn’t care what anyone thinks.
Since he was not able to compete effectively he will litigate, lobby and attack. It appears that Bezos is so disappointed he didn’t get the contract he is willing to try and keep NASA grounded.
