It depends what Boeing is willing to invest, quite frankly. We don't have currently the appropriations necessary to achieve that.
If we are putting American astronauts on those vehicles, without question, it is not just up to them, it is up to us as well.
I really believe it would be in the interest of success to start off with at least three different human landing systems that we could then down-select to two human landing systems.
