Elon Musk, the chief executive officer behind SpaceX, tweeted on Wednesday that Jeff Bezos, founder of Blue Origin aerospace company is better off investing into space equipment than wasting money on hiring high-profile advisors to fight in US court.
"He should consider spending some money on actual lunar lander hardware, instead of shady lobbyists," Musk wrote on his Twitter page.
Blue Origin has hired Pallas Advisors firm after losing out to its competitor SpaceX on a multibillion-dollar NASA contract for a lunar lander. Founders of the advisory firm have previously worked for Amazon, after which they've taken positions at Defense Department during Donald Trump's administration.
