Congressmen from Texas wrote a letter to NASA administrator Jim Bridenstine saying Johnson Space Flight Center in Houston should lead the lunar lander project over Marshall.
The 3 congressmen, including U.S. senators Ted Cruz and John Cornyn, said Texas has served as the lead center for years, and should be in charge again for Artemis.
