SpaceX, Musk’s aerospace company, asked the FCC in a mid-August amendment to update its application for the company’s Starlink satellite internet project. The amendment asked that the filing include information on its Gen2 System that it said will expand Starlink’s reach and boost its “user connectivity.”
This statement follows the filing of a lawsuit by Bezos’ aerospace company Blue Origin over NASA’s $2.9 billion contract with SpaceX for future moon landings on the grounds that it believed NASA had “unreasonably evaluated” SpaceX’s proposals for its Human Lander System starship.
