Fresh from his flight to suborbital space, Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos is re-setting his sights on the Moon. In April, NASA awarded Elon Musks SpaceX with the lone contract to build NASAs Human Landing System HLS , prompting Blue Origin and Dynetics鈥攖he remaining bidders鈥攖o file a protest with the federal Government Accountability Office GAO . Blue Origins main gripe is that NASA backed down o

The Amazon CEO said Blue Origin would waive all payments up to $2 billion in exchange for the contract. The offer is not a deferral, he wrote in the letter, but an outright and permanent waiver of those payments. To which he added: This offer provides time for government appropriation actions to catch up. To make the carrot even sweeter, Bezos said Blue Origin will contribute to the development and launch of a pathfinder mission to low-Earth orbit of the lunar descent element, and at its own cost. This would be in addition to the uncrewed demonstration of the HLS. Artists conception of the Blue Origin lunar lander.

Prof Tim Schmidt, a chemist at the University of New South Wales, Sydney and co-author of the study, said that the windscreen of a future spaceship travelling through interstellar space might be expected to get a sticky coating.

That data in turn allowed them to use prior astronomical observations to estimate how much of the material appears to have accumulated in the vast expanses between stars, with the scientists concluding that said grease accounts for between quarter to half
