    That’s surprising. DSS was one of the CLPS providers that I thought wouldn’t bid again after getting merged into Redwire and changing directions. Redwire has some vehicle ambitions now, though, so best of luck.

    Ispace is such a weird player in this game. They’ve now launched private and JAXA funded missions to the moon. They’re building the lander for Draper for CLPS. Now they’re planning to build one for Redwire for CLPS. Hopefully Hakuto-R 2 sticks the landing in a a few months and the CLPS missions are set up for success.
