2024 for the date of the landing? Not too far away. I hope NASA and the contract companies can pull this off. I would bet that SpaceX and Blue Origin will play prominent roles Stephen, not sure there is room for both to be in on the same project though. It also looks like there will be enough money in the kitty to get the designs completed, before more Federal funding is needed. Thanks for the interesting article.
