NASA notified Resource21 LLC, a remote-sensing firm based in Englewood, Colorado, that NASA had rejected the company's US$500 million bid to provide Landsat-type data for five years. NASA had managed the bidding process for the Landsat Data Continuity Mission on behalf of the USGS, which was responsible for archiving and distributing Landsat data. Resource21 was the only company to submit a final bid in the competition to commercialize the U.S. government's satellite-based Landsat information program.
