The Mars2020 mission costs roughly $2.75 billion over 11 years. Musk, allegedly the richest person on Earth, is worth (checks https://www.forbes.com/profile/elon-musk/) $236B. That's 85 Mars missions, leaving $2.25B for Musk to live a peasant's life. Bezos is worth $148B, that is 53 Mars missions plus a peasant's pension. That's 138 missions to Mars for just two people retiring early.
Suddenly this is not funny any more. Not funny at all
The JWST team recently released this image of Saturn's moon Enceladus, showing water plumes extending out 10,000 km, 20 times the size of the moon itself, which creates a fuzzy torus of water particles around the orbit of Enceladus.
The inset shows a mosaic of Enceladus and its water jets, based on images taken by the Cassini orbiter in 2009.
Let's learn more about Enceladus and examine why the JWST image is so low-res and pixelated. https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/2023/webb-maps-surprisingly-large-plume-jetting-from-saturn-s-moon-enceladus #Enceladus#JWST#Science

Bezos' Blue Origin wins NASA contract to build astronaut lunar lander
Inevitable Bezos would win after Musk’s modified Starship got first pick. Blue Origin lander works with Artemis since Orion capsule flies but doesn’t land. Starship will eventually be able to do entire mission with one craft. And yes, billionaires still make great writing prompts.
...him. Well how far could you throw #Bezos who's been building data centers around the world, collecting information on millions and consumers and literally one of to go-to companies in the #West for globally scalable B2B cloud solutions.
But then, some animals are more evil than others, to borrow a bit from #Orwell again. Let's not forget about a forgotten #SciFi movie, #Wargames, which again--you might have guessed it, by #Elmo's former #DarthVader mentor,...
