An industry team led by Leidos’ Dynetics business has submitted its proposal for a human landing system that will support NASA’s Artemis mission to the moon slated for 2024.

Blue Origin has commenced the latest series of assessments for the company's BE-7 engine that will power a human landing system for the Artemis mission to the moon.

Northrop Grumman has completed the initial preliminary design review (PDR) for the Habitation and Logistics Outpost (HALO), the company reported on Wednesday. The module will support NASA’s Lunar Gateway by working as a crew habitat and docking hub for vehicles. “Maturing HALO through its preliminary design marks a major milestone in the module’s production,” said Steve Krein, vice president of civil and commercial satellites at Northrop Grumman.

Sally Richardson, program director for the Human Landing System at Northrop Grumman, said the company completed on Oct. 8 a system readiness review of the HLS' transfer element and is preparing for two more assessments in December and January, NASASpaceflight reported Friday. 

Dynetics has produced a full-size mockup of its human landing system three months after the Leidos subsidiary received a design and development contract to support NASA's Artemis moon mission.
