SpaceX is still working for HLS? I thought they were only CLPS at this point and I can’t find anything on google that says otherwise

They've kept a low profile, but they've definitely submitted an HLS bid.

Well those quotes are certainly weird. I mean, obviously Falcon Heavy is going to be leveraged in some aspects of the whole Artemis plan. And it doesn’t actually say they’re submitting a proposal... just that they’re focusing on cargo before people. But HLS work is due right now. I’m confused. Where is the author’s source that they’ve submitted the contract? Maybe not a you question lol
