Bezos strongly protested NASA's suspension of SpaceX lunar program contract

腾讯证券5月1日报道，美国国防承包商dynetics和杰夫·贝佐斯（Jeff Bezos）旗下的太空探索公司blue origin company向美国国会下属的"政府问责办公室"提交抗议文件后，SpaceX为美国宇航局提供的月球着陆器项目暂停。

Tencent securities reported on May 1 that the lunar lander project provided by SpaceX for NASA was suspended after the blue origin company, a space exploration company under the US defense contractor dynetics and Jeff Bezos, submitted a protest document to the "Government Accountability Office" under the US Congress.

Blue origin声称，美国宇航局与SpaceX就拟议价格进行了谈判，但没有与Blue origin进行类似的谈判。

Blue origin claimed that NASA negotiated a proposed price with SpaceX, but did not have similar negotiations with blue origin.

美国航天局回应说，预算问题和国会资金的缺乏意味着该机构只能选择一个投标人。据报道，美国宇航局原计划今年投资34亿美元用于月球着陆器的研制，但国会只批准了四分之一，即8.5亿美元。

NASA responded that budget concerns and a lack of congressional funding meant the agency could only choose one bidder. According to reports, NASA originally planned to invest $3.4 billion in the development of lunar landers this year, but Congress approved only a quarter, or $850 million.

此前，美国宇航局人类探索与运行任务副主任凯西·吕德斯（Kathy Lueders）曾表示，只有一家公司的方案"不是美国宇航局想要的最佳结果"，但它符合该机构的投标规则。

Previously, Kathy Lueders, deputy director of NASA's human exploration and operations mission, once said that only one company's proposal was "not the best result NASA wanted", but it was in line with the agency's bidding rules.

争夺首富头衔的斗争也如火如荼

The fight for the title of the richest man is also in full swing

随着贝佐斯和马斯克的太空竞争持续升温，争夺世界首富头衔的争夺也如火如荼。

As the space competition between Bezos and musk continues to heat up, the fight for the title of the world's richest man is also in full swing.

本周，贝佐斯的个人财富突破2000亿美元，稳步超过马斯克。美国媒体公布的数据显示，截至上周五，贝佐斯的净资产为2023亿美元。法国奢侈品巨头路易威登（LVMH）董事长兼首席执行官伯纳德•阿尔诺（Bernard Arnault）以1828亿美元的净资产排名全球亿万富翁排行榜第二，马斯克以1725亿美元的净资产排名第三。

This week, Bezos' personal wealth broke through $200 billion, steadily surpassing musk's. As of Friday, Bezos had a net worth of $202.3 billion, according to data released by US media. Bernard Arnault, chairman and CEO of LVMH, the French luxury giant, ranked second in the world's list of billionaires with a net worth of $182.8 billion, while musk ranked third with a net worth of $172.5 billion.

去年8月，COVID-19的股价再创新高，这得益于COVID-19的疯狂买入。其净资产已突破2000亿美元大关，随后又回落。最近，在强劲的季度利润推动下，亚马逊股价大幅上涨，亿万富翁的净资产再次上升。

In August last year, COVID-19's stock price hit a new high, which was boosted by COVID-19's buying frenzy. Its net worth had broken through the $200 billion mark and then fell back. Recently, boosted by strong quarterly profits, Amazon's share price rose sharply, and the net worth of the billionaire rose again.

值得注意的是，贝佐斯有望在今年晚些时候辞去亚马逊首席执行官一职。统计数据显示，自年初以来，亚马逊的股价已经上涨了9%以上。

It's worth noting that Bezos is expected to step down as Amazon's chief executive later this year. Statistics show that since the beginning of the year, Amazon's share price has increased by more than 9%.

几个月来，贝佐斯和马斯克一直在争夺世界首富的头衔。上个月底，马斯克短暂成为首富
