Musk and Bezos Moon Landers Could Leave Artemis Astronauts Stranded, NASA Watchdog Warns - Gizmodo
Overview
A watchdog report found serious problems in the Human Landing System program, citing delays, weak oversight, and inadequate testing that could jeopardize future lunar surface operations. Recent Blue Origin failures — the New Glenn payload mishap and a later rocket explosion that likely removes the company from Artemis III contention — amplify those oversight and testing concerns and increase NASA’s reliance on a single commercial provider. That concentration of dependence on SpaceX heightens the program-level risk if additional commercial or technical problems arise.
