Yes. Thanks to the Earth's gravity well, it is significantly less energy-intensive to deliver 100kg of mass from the moon to low Earth orbit, than to launch the same amount from Earth. This is the reason for SpaceX's recent pivot to the moon. Musk sees an opportunity to rapidly build AI data centers in orbit using lunar regolith without, say, community opposition. | ||
