SpaceX’s Starship, Blue Origin’s moon lander and Dynetics’ spacecraft will return Americans to the moon’s service after all three companies were chosen by NASA to build human moon landers, the space agency revealed Thursday.
NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine announced Thursday the agency had selected three companies to carry astronauts back to the moon for the first time since the Apollo program.
In September, NASA sought proposals for human lunar landing systems from American companies and by the November deadline all the big names in space had thrown their hard hats in the ring, including Boeing, Blue Origin, SpaceX and Dynetics.
