Pentagon Space Commercialization

The Pentagon plans to continue purchasing orbital imagery from private suppliers, and is inviting bids for a new round of imagery contracts worth around $500 million.

One hopes the Aldridge Commission will recommend similar arrangements as part of the fleshed-out Moon-Mars plan. (Though I can't find it at the moment, I could swear I read something to this effect in the past day or two.)
