In an engineering feat, mechanical SpaceX arms catch Starship rocket booster back at the launch pad

[K.I.T.T.]

That's very noble of you.

I have family and friends there, and they've been sending me pics and videos. It just seemed like the right thing to do.

Laws mean nothing if you're the only person with the ability to travel to and maintain a new territory. The Earth governments can try to stop him all they want but once Elon is on the moon with enough resources to make it self sustainable he won't need to listen to the laws of Earth. Just like the 13 colonies disregarded the laws of the Crown in 1776.

Please let Elon Musk go live on the moon as soon as possible.

 

[D.O.A.]

He's not going to declare himself Mar's Emperor until he doesn't need Earth anymore. He'll have no reason to return to Earth once he has agriculture, mines, and factories all operating on Mars. Plus he may meet a sexy alien bride up there to make his queen 😛👽

Mining rights will be the good one. Capital raise to RC and diamond drill mars? Fuck yeah I'm in, let's see what we come up with - minerals, gold or dust. 150 ton payload on his rocket so if you bring 100 tons of space gold back that's 6 billion US dollars.

If Musk physically travels to Mars he could claim the planet for himself and all the resources on it, which is insane to think about. 1000 years from now his children may still own large swaths of its surface through inheritance. They will live there, each in command of legions of workers who toil in the agriculture domes and mineral mines.

So is it Americas moon or Mankinds moon? I'm confused now.
Mankinds moon has a better ring to it tbh.

A UN agreement from 1967 says no nation can own the Moon. Instead, the fantastically named Outer Space Treaty says it belongs to everyone, and that any exploration has to be carried out for the benefit of all humankind and in the interests of all nations.

So no mcdonalds or incest on the moon just yet
Apparently nigs were the first in space trying to build a stow to rob

my brother-in-law is a part of that space x program. even though hes retired, musk still has contact with him on things,because he helped write some of the programs. pretty cool shit.
