This is all pure bullshit, inspired by his fear that his failure to get anywhere near his Artemis mission goals would result in him getting his NASA public money tit turned off.
“I’ll just come up with some bullshit off the top of my head saying I am going to do something with satellites - it doesn’t matter that it isn’t possible - and the American public will lap it up like the mugs they are. They will insist on giving me billions via NASA.”
Trump appointed Musk’s crony as head of NASA so the grift will continue. Musk and China applaud. It will result in China winning the new space race, and is another nail in the coffin of the dollar as global reserve currency. Billionaire grifters will get rich over this period, while the average American will get poor.
