Our Reading
The launch follows a familiar script.
SpaceX wants to build a mass driver on the moon to shoot AI satellites into deep space. Because that’s exactly what we need – more AI in space. Musk’s idea is to use the mass driver to propel satellites, because rockets just aren’t cool enough. This is the same guy who wants to colonize Mars, so why not? It’s not like we have better things to spend our money on. The moon as a launchpad for AI satellites – because that’s not a recipe for disaster.
