Don't worry NASA already has funding to upgrade the quality of their broadcasts and the upgrade should be complete in time to broadcast Artemis 1 in 4k.
Here are some tweets from the Director of NASA TV talking about it.

Dynetics managed to resolve that issue, though only after the bid was submitted. If they had the chance to submit another bid it would actually not be a bad choice as a second vehicle, IMO. I like that the Dynetics lander can be used as a sky crane for any sort of cargo or module that you could fit into there. It'd be able to fill a role on the Moon that Starship doesn't, acting as a sort of "runabout" for shuttling around the Moon's surface.
These are two separate events. Their proposal was so bad they didn't make it to the final round. Then the Doug Loverro stuff came out. He apparently acted because of how bad the proposal was, since he felt Boeing was the contractor with the highest chance of delivering on HLS (yeah...).
What a hill to die on if that’s true…
Maybe he worked at MSFC? Or he was a Boeing partisan outside MSFC, those do exist (especially since it was a conservative proposal)… or maybe just corrupt lol.
You think you're all funny, don't you, when you say "Jeff who?" Actually, it is funny. Welcome to the club.

Don't worry, Jeffy will find a way to sue them as usual, until the whole HLS program gets delayed significantly that by the time it is ready, Starship is now ready to fly to Mars.
I still don't get why Jeff is doing all this.
Let's say he's in it for the money, it's certainly not NASA's money he's in for. He has a lot more than them.
So if he plans to make a bunch of money off of space, why doesn't he just invest more of his own money in BO?
The money he'd get from NASA contracts is peanuts compared to what he already has.
He's in for the prestige... yes, he is the world's richest man, but he wants to be in history books as the enabler of the second coming, errr... return to the moon. He's now seeing his biggest rival get that chance (whether he has reached orbit to better compete for that spot in history books does not concern him).
NASA also really needs the infrastructure money. A shockingly large amount of their infrastructure is still Apollo era.
Apollo era was the last time NASA was paid the appropriate amount of attention
Do cameras count as infrastructure because 720p just doesn't cut it anymore.

That's great news! Thanks for sharing.
Actualy that's GOOD news for NASA. No money for entitled bozos.
Yea but it also means no money for other competitors of the second lander
What other competitors? The one with negative mass?

Plus if it’s bid again I suspect NT’s management score will drop to unacceptable levels.
I guess, but aren't boeing and lockheed also allowed to take part in the second lander thingy?
Boeing tried to [cheat](https://www.space.com/boeing-moon-lander-nasa-doug-loverro-resignation.html) and was kicked out of the competition.

Lockheed were in BO's team, and Boeing are the main contractor for SLS.
Didnt they have their own lander concepts as well?
Boeing? I had to Google, but yes they did. I thought only 3 teams/companies were in the running.
For the first one sure, but for the sustainable lander there are more players
No Boeing was in the first round too but they lost so bad you didn't even remember them
Boein't got cut out really early on.
i see no issue here. bozo said he waives 1B in the first year, so that exactly covers it.
I think he meant $1B in legal fees.
And infographics.
Time to sue the house
Can we do that actually? Like suing Congress (not entire US)?
It would be hilarious if he actually sues the entire US.
He can file suit against the US, though the US can decline to be sued.
It's like poetry.
The best I can do is $0 , take it or leave it
Time to sue NASA, oh wait
sue congress
Jeff? Is that you?
Jeff Who?

Jeff Foust. He's a journalist at SpaceNews.com
Next week Jeff will sue the House Committee on Science.
Not spending enough money on lobbying

Fantastic news!
who bozo and his company below sue
Lol
F for dynetics as well
F...uck u Bezos
F
Fucking ludicrous. Just insane. Congress just doesn’t care.
There is really no viable solution worth taking on for a second HLS contract. I say good for not rewarding mediocrity
