Elon Musk announced that SpaceX is now prioritizing the development of a “self-growing city” on the Moon, aiming for completion within a decade, while still planning a Mars city in five to seven years. This shift from Mars to the Moon aligns with a Wall Street Journal report indicating SpaceX’s focus on lunar missions, including a planned uncrewed lunar landing by March 2027. Musk’s comments also highlight the ongoing competition with China for lunar exploration and the importance of SpaceX’s commercial Starlink system for revenue. Meanwhile, Musk is directing Tesla towards autonomous driving and robotics, investing $20 billion this year.
