As far as I understand they've done a significant amount of work related to HLS. It's not nearly as public facing as starship but they have crossed a lot of milestones that are part of their Nasa contract. Including a lot of work on orbital refueling, the HLS landing engines, and the crew version of starship.

Of course, this shit is still multiple years away so the meme holds true.

The Human Landing System contracts are fixed-price, no?

Yes, indeed it is. So far anyway. I was just being sassy.
