People familiar with the matter revealed that Boeing, the troubled company, is considering selling its famous NASA business, including the troubled Starship project and supporting the operation of the International Space Station. This effort is part of Boeing's new CEO Kelly Ortberg's strategy to streamline the company and curb financial losses. It is currently in the early stages and may not reach a deal. For decades, the company has been working closely with NASA on large-scale projects, including Apollo astronaut missions and the creation of space stations. However, in recent years, SpaceX has replaced Boeing as the most important partner. According to some people familiar with the matter, it is expected that Boeing will continue to be responsible for the space launch system. People familiar with the matter also said that before Ortberg joined, Boeing had discussed taking over some NASA projects with Blue Origin, a space company owned by billionaire Jeff Bezos.
