GoKawiilAxiom Space sues Vast Space over alleged copied ISS mission plans
Axiom Space has filed a False Claims Act lawsuit against Vast Space, alleging Vast submitted a mission-planning document to NASA that copied Axiom's proprietary work for NASA's Private Astronaut Missions program. The suit, unsealed November 4 by a federal judge, surfaced weeks before both companies' final private space station proposals are due to NASA on December 14. Vast has denied fraud, calling the case an attempt to use litigation against a competitor.
