"Chris Hadfield's Lunar Dream: Flying SpaceX's Starship"
SpaceX's Starship, already selected by NASA for the Human Landing System program, has the potential to revolutionize lunar surface operations and enable exploration and industrialization of the Moon. By repurposing surplus Starships as permanent facilities on the lunar surface, SpaceX could solve the challenge of remotely building infrastructure and create habitats, lunar farms, and other components of a successful lunar economy. This strategy would lower the cost of creating infrastructure, accelerate the emergence of a lunar economy, and potentially generate additional revenue for SpaceX through the sale or lease of lunar facilities.
