  • I think his ambitions are bigger than anyone realizes right now. Buying the USA is not big enough. The titles don't matter. Subverting fascists is easier. I think he's looking to make a really big mark on history, like the half dozen names everyone knows. I honestly think he is going for an m-type astroid. The Isaacman move hints at that one specifically, along with a real reason for Starship when a Falcon Heavy is so capable and ahead of anyone else. The industrial capability of Tesla, batteries, small scale boring machinery, AI robotics, solar, those are all of the elements one needs to access and recover an m-type astroid. Gravitational differentiation of heavy elements is the primary cause of resource scarcity on a planetary surface. Any differentiated body has vast elemental wealth in its core. M-type asteroids are from differentiated planetesimal cores. One such object can have more wealth than the entire world combined. Accessing that wealth would buy the world. Flag planting and bases on the moon are silly nonsense, accessing an m-type closes a chapter and starts a new human epic. I'm not a fan of the guy. This is potentially civ ending level instability. It is probably speculative nonsense, but objectively disconnected logic with skepticism... the dots are lining up in an unusual way... Japan has already done a lot of the prospecting and required missions. The Dart mission showed how two body interactions will alter near earth objects as much as they did anything for proving planetary defense...
