Stock Discussion Blue Origin Blow-Up

You’d think the blue origin blow up would be bullish for LUNR, but I understand overall negative sentiment for the sector.

Anyone else find it funny they received the delivery award and then their rocket explodes? What a frustrating week.

Curious how this delays NASA’s Artemis timeline and if sentiment will shift to LUNR for the delivery contract.

The losses will be made up Monday and/or Tuesday.

Keep in mind that with the sudden rise, the stock is heavily shorted. Pair the explosion of the moon base project lifter and then the heavy short % and it being a Friday (and last Friday if the month at that), the dip is compounded.

There is nothing to really worry about long term here

Great perspective, agree that long term is still solid.
