[i]Sierra Nevada on Wednesday asked the U.S. Court of Federal Claims in Washington to prevent Boeing and SpaceX, as the Southern California company is known, from receiving payments under separate contracts awarded last month by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to develop, test and operate commercial-crew vehicles to take U.S. astronauts into orbit. ...Mark Sirangelo, head of space systems at Sierra Nevada, on Wednesday confirmed that "we have filed with the federal court." A NASA spokeswoman declined to comment on the litigation. Both the original protest and the court papers filed Wednesday remain under seal, covered by a GAO protective order that is common while such a protest is being considered. The GAO, which received a draft version of the request for an injunction before it was filed, declined to comment except to say that the agency would continue to evaluate Sierra Nevada's underlying claims of contract irregularities.[/i]
