"According to an Orbital spokesperson, the firm expects to recognize
between $55 million and $60 million in revenue from the abort system
contract in 2010. Revenues from the program were $200 million and $100
million in 2008 and 2009, respectively, the official said."
Shouldn't somebody from NASA have gotten on the phone with them and told
them to freeze work on it when Orion got canceled?
