SPACEX AND BLUE ORIGIN BOTH SUBMITTED PLANS TO GET ASTRONAUTS BACK TO THE MOON FASTER, NASA SAYS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

SpaceX has pitched NASA a 'simplified mission' to put astronauts back on the moon following criticisms over delays. The company is behind schedule on building its lunar landing system for NASA's Artemis III mission, which caused NASA to reopen the landing contract for the mission. Blue Origin also submitted a plan. It has been developing a lunar lander for NASA and plans to launch a smaller-scale version of it, known as the Blue Moon Mark 1.
