    that’s all beautiful but what about get the problems on earth solved first? Like peace, water, housing, food, education, energy, transportation etc etc for all and then, when all people are happy and well educated, we can think about that and it will be a much faster achievement because we can use the power of 9 or 10 billion happy brains wotking together towards it! Is that hard to understand?

    Considering all Elon says here, I think all technology should be set-up for use, & produced in Space, as Space is comparatively more favourable to technology, than here.
    Following which, all of Earth should be left to flourish naturally on it’s own, unless we may sometimes need some technology here, which we should be able to access from Space, as it is abundantly produced there, & so could be got from there.

      You missed the part where a single data center uses more electricity then dozens of International Space Station solar panels, massive. And that in a vacuum radiating the heat would be equally large. On a system that will be obsolete after a few years in a orbit that will eventually decay. And they want 100s or 1000s of these orbiting centers. LOL

    Here we have a guy who has been truly captivated by sci-fi movies / books. He is controversial and we all tend to forget that he has Aspergers.
    .
    Howard Hughes obsessive-compulsive germ phobia would make him look like a freak in his time, but today we respect how he overcame his mental issues and we herald his accomplishments.
    .
    I hope we some day do the same for Elon.

    sounds like he’s trying to scam investors again. Data centres in space? Come on man… let’s be for real. Would’ve made a lot more sense if they focused on small scale nuclear reactors for data centres instead of that massive solar array

    After watching this , I remembered WALL-E movie… First create a problem which was non-existent. Then scale it until it become big problem. Then create another problem to solve the first problem which became big problem and the chain goes on and on… 😢 Space Debris , Land Debris , Underground Debris, Air Debris … Just garbage upon garbage upon garbage… 😢 Until these multi-billionaires force humans out in the space making them slaves…😢 Destroying Mother Earth… 😢

    I gotta say. The use of a mass driver on the moon to save fuel and cost is really smart. The tech is all there. While I don’t like Elon as a person this is a really good idea. But having enough radiators to bleed off heat will be one of the biggest challenges.
