Original statement is that NASA started to use "Northrop Grunman" as the

Well, no. Your original claim was that Antares was launched as
Orbital ATK and reentered as Northrop Grumman. That claim was
actually true, by the way, but you then confused yourself by not
knowing the difference between announcing an INTENT to merge and
announcing an actual merger.


aka: this indicated the merger had been consumed. I don't see why you
claim I am wrong.


Consumed? I think the word you're looking for is 'consummated.
