After 15 years of development, Lockheed wins new cost-plus contract for Orion
From Ars Technica:
"On Monday, NASA announced that it had awarded a new $4.6 billion "production" contract to Lockheed Martin for six additional Orion spacecraft, which will be used for Artemis missions to the Moon, mostly during the 2020s."

Another of the behemoth defense contractors gets another cost-plus contract from NASA. Let the bleeding begin!
