Jeff Bezos’ space company Blue Origin is suing the US governmental agency NASA over a moon exploration contract awarded to Elon Musk’s SpaceX.

The $2.9 billion contract was awarded to SpaceX in April. It was protested by the other bidders at the time, who alleged that the evaluation process was unfair.
