Lockheed picks Florida in NASA rocket bid
Posted on: Feb. 23rd, 2006 || Source: today.reuters.com | E-mail Article | Print Article
The deal depends on Florida legislators approving a $45.5 million incentives package and on Lockheed Martin winning NASA's approval for its proposed Crew Exploration Vehicle.
A partnership of Northrop Grumman (NOC.N: Quote, Profile, Research) and Boeing Co. (BA.N: Quote, Profile, Research) is competing for the work as well. Proposals are due in March and NASA is expected to select a team this summer.
