NASA May Shrink Boeing’s Moon-Mission Role While Handing SpaceX Core Rocket Responsibilities

President Donald Trump’s NASA chief could soon announce Boeing’s diminishing role in returning astronauts to the Moon, while leaning heavily on Elon Musk’s SpaceX rocket company to do the heavy lifting. Boeing’s Space Launch System (SLS), originally the rocket backbone of the Artemis mission, would no longer carry the Lockheed Martin-built Orion crew capsule to the Moon.

But most of the time, employees are left to fend for themselves, as one office worker discovered when her job description changed abruptly.
