They really need to hurry, because China is well ahead in exploring the best clean energy resource, Helium-3 found on the Moon.
We have known that Helium-3 has been on the moon in significantly higher quantities than on Earth there whole thing was just going to the far side. There SMR's and "advanced" reactors like sodium-based ones are US designs from the 50s and 60s.
Once of those been there done that but now that it is economically viable again the US is dusting off everything once more.

Correct, but massive amounts of Helium-3 are on the dark side of the moon. What is the only nation that has reached there so far, China.

If Elon was asked to put people on the moon we could have them there in a year or two but instead he’s gunning for Mars. Starship isn’t perfect and complete yet but the sheer pace of its improvement should have every nation state shook

They did all this, but they didn't land on the dark side of the moon. If it were that easy they would have done it already. There are interests that go beyond the private sector, such as national sovereignty
