After warming up for about two hours, MOXIE produced 5.4 grams of oxygen. This is enough to sustain an astronaut for about 10 minutes.
Longer than I would have guessed. 5.4g is about 4L of Oxygen at 1 atm.

Blue Origin suing the government over it awarding a contract to SpaceX.

Uh, I've seen SpaceX launching stuff seemingly weekly. Meanwhile, your company had one successful launch that kinda went to space. It's no contest.

I like how SpaceX has an explosive landing, and says "we'll fix that. Next launch in four days.". Meanwhile, Boieng scrubs a launch for faulty valves and they're out for the year
