“Heron, a small, female- and minority-owned company “

Translation... a massively smart guy with a hispanic or asian wife made sure to incorporate with her as a co-owner so they qualify of all kinds of advantages in bidding.

One would think that there has to be some kind of ability for ground control to intervene, in case orders change or as a safety measure. So my question is whether whatever signalling system used for that purpose can be jammed, etc...

Actually - everything that flies will be automated, soon.

Why risk human lives and make engineering restrict itself to protecting a temperature-sensitive, oxygen-requiring, g-limited squishy, space-using system when AI can do the job even better?

Careful. The Chinee are way ahead of us in AI. DiFi and others play footsie with the Chinee and our intellectual property may have already been xferred to the Chinee.

It’s worse than that. They are listed as a “small disadvantaged business.” Look that up and cringe.
