Elon Musk, focusing on the Moon, is not only opposing Jeff Bezos but also setting himself the goal of creating a "self-sustaining city" on Earth's satellite. This statement was made this week, marking an unexpected turn in his plans, which were initially aimed at Mars colonization.
Like Bezos, Musk is also expressing plans to establish factories on the Moon, which is part of his ambitious strategy to create data centers for artificial intelligence in space. This also explains the merger of his successful AI startup, xAI, with SpaceX.
As for Blue Origin, the company founded by Bezos, it is preparing to carry out its first cargo flight to the Moon early this year and has reconfigured its resources, shifting focus from suborbital tourism to lunar exploration.
