NASA originally planned to select two agencies to develop the lunar spacecraft in April this year, but due to the lack of funds allocated by the U.S. Congress, it finally chose SpaceX. NASA has previously announced funding of $2.9 billion to SpaceX by 2024 for the development of the moon landing spacecraft for the Artemis program < p > less than two weeks after SpaceX won the contract, blue origin submitted a 175 page protest document to the U.S. Government Accountability Office, accusing NASA of misjudging part of the blue moon spacecraft program proposed by blue origin. Blue moon project is a lunar spacecraft project jointly proposed by blue origin, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin and drebber On April 16, NASA announced that SpaceX's interstellar spacecraft system will be used as a lunar landing spacecraft, saying that the cost and freight capacity of the spacecraft are the key to defeat blue origin and dynetics. NASA said that according to the contract, SpaceX's starship will perform two lunar landing missions, one is a test mission for the spaceship to land on the lunar surface in an unmanned state, and the other is to carry < a target = "around 2024_ blank" href=" https://news.163.com/news/search?keyword=%E5%AE%87%E8%88%AA%E5%91%98 "> mission of astronauts to the moon "NASA's procurement of lunar landing systems was flawed and changed its target at the last minute," blue origin said in a statement released on Monday The statement said NASA's decision was "highly risky." "Their decision eliminates competition opportunities and significantly reduces the supply base, which will not only delay the return of U.S. astronauts to the moon, but also endanger the overall plan," the statement said. So we have protested to the U.S. government accountability office. " NASA has not responded < p > Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX, responded to the protest through his personal social media Twitter: "haha, I can't get things on track yet." He was clearly referring to the fact that blue origin had not yet put any equipment into earth orbit < p > the contract for the lunar spacecraft is the core of NASA's "Artemis" lunar program, which aims to re launch the first group of astronauts since the Apollo mission to the moon and build a springboard for future Mars landing missions on the lunar surface. Last year, NASA applied for $3.3 billion to purchase the lunar spacecraft, but the U.S. Congress allocated only $850 million. NASA says the lack of funds is the main reason for choosing SpaceX < p > Blue origin said in its complaint file that NASA did not give them the opportunity to modify the plan after learning that the funds allocated by the US Congress were not large. Blue origin also claims that NASA blindly favors SpaceX and deliberately ignores the technical challenges related to starships. For example, its so-called orbital refueling technology has not been verified at all < p > "NASA's assessment behavior of favoring SpaceX is not reasonable at all. It minimizes the major risks in the design and schedule of SpaceX, but maximizes the same or similar risks in the blue origin scheme. This assessment is unreasonable and biased against the origin of blue. " < p > the U.S. government accountability office can act as a court for procurement disputes between companies and U.S. federal agencies. In reviewing such protests as those made by blue origin, the U.S. government accountability office can choose to reject or support them. If the blue origin protest continues, the U.S. Government Accountability Office will make a series of recommendations to NASA. Of course, it's rare for the U.S. Government Accountability Office to support corporate protests, and it's even rarer for federal agencies to violate recommendations < p > in the protest, blue origin asked the U.S. Government Accountability Office to recommend NASA to cancel the original contract, re issue a new statement reflecting the shortage of funds, and negotiate with all bidders on the new process < p > this is not the first time that blue origin has protested the winning result. In 2019, blue origin also protested the US Air Force's decision to select two companies to launch defense satellites into space. The U.S. Government Accountability Office supported some of the protest contents raised by blue origin, but did not bring the desired results to blue origin（ Chen Chen) < / P > < p > <-- EndFragment-->
