Jeff Bezos space company Blue Origin has criticised Nasa s flawed decision to award Elon Musk’s SpaceX a $2.9bn (£2bn) moon lander contract, escalating an already bitter feud between the world s two richest men.
Blue Origin said it had filed a 50-page protest with the Government Accountability Office accusing the US space agency of moving the goalposts for contract bidders at the last minute.
It wrote the decision “eliminates opportunities for competition, significantly narrows the supply base, and not only delays, but also endangers America s return to the moon.”

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has poked fun at
Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) founder Jeff Bezos after the latter’s space exploration company Blue Origin protested NASA’s award of a $2.9 billion contract to SpaceX.
What Happened: The New York Times reported that Blue Origin filed a protest with the U.S. Government Accountability Office on Monday, challenging NASA’s award of a lunar lander contract to Musk’s SpaceX earlier this month.
Blue Origin CEO Bob Smith said in an interview with the New York Times that NASA’s decision was flawed as it misjudged advantages of Blue Origin’s proposal and downplayed the technical challenges related to SpaceX. He also said NASA had placed a bigger emphasis on bottom-line cost than it said it would.
