Stumble It!
According to Michael Belfiore and his source at NASA, the first round of COTS cuts has been made by phone. At least five of them are reported to be:
SpaceHab
Rocketplane Kistler
Andrews Space
Transformational Space Corporation (t/Space)
Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX)
To me this is the most exciting part of the VSE (at least in the near term). Stay tuned!
Update: Michael says SpaceDev is, in fact, the last finalist. Alan Boyle has more on the story.
So it is a who's who of New Space companies.
