As with its original Human Landing System proposal, Blue Origin called the companies it partnered with on the SLD proposal the “National Team.” Draper and Lockheed Martin, who were part of that original proposal, rejoined the new team. Blue Origin also added Astrobotic, a company developing robotic lunar landers, and Honeybee Robotics, a space technology company acquired by Blue Origin in January.
“As the only company to successfully build a crewed lunar lander, Northrop Grumman will be an excellent partner as we support NASA’s inspiring efforts to return humans to the lunar surface,” said Steve Cook, president of Dynetics, in a statement, referring to the development of the Apollo-era Lunar Module by Grumman Aerospace. “We believe our partnership with Northrop Grumman makes us more than ready for the challenge.
