- The two richest men in the world are engaged in a vicious space race that has implications for us all. For years, Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk have squabbled in the media over everything from who is the wealthiest to who did what first. But their rival space programmes, satellite launches and plans to colonise the planets have launched a new Space Age.
With his company, Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos has thrown himself into space tourism and, in doing so, has revolutionised access to Space. He sees himself as the leader in this burgeoning ’New Space’ market. But he faces a determined opponent: Elon Musk, the eccentric head of SpaceX. Musk’s company has already disrupted the traditional aerospace launch industry and now he’s aiming for Mars.
When Musk first tried to buy a Russian rocket back in 2001, the chief engineer of the Russian Space Agency thought he was a joke. But that only made Musk more determined. Rather than buy rockets, he decided to build them and invested $100 million dollars, half his fortune at the time, in the creation of SpaceX. By 2008 SpaceX had a contract with NASA to supply flights to the International Space Station.
At around the same time Musk was founding SpaceX, Jeff Bezos was working on a secretive project to bring tourists to space. By 2015, he was ready to go public with a new rocket named the New Shepherd, the first reusable rocket to reach space. A year later, Musk announced an ambitious, widely ridiculed, plan to colonise Mars within 30 years. In the meantime, Bezos was working on plans to colonise the moon. When competition with China made returning to the moon a top priority for President Trump, there was one big question: which company would get the lucrative NASA moon contract?
Aside from colonising space and NASA contracts, the two billionaires are also racing to launch the most satellites. This allows them to deliver low latency broadband data services everywhere on the Earth… and to monopolise all future terrestrial communications. Jeff Bezos recently announced the launch of Kuiper, his network of more than 3,000 satellites. Jeff Bezos recently announced the launch of Kuiper, his network of more than 3,000 satellites.
So where will it end? How far will this intensive commercialisation of space go? We investigate.

There is no competition. Elon is so far ahead it's not even close.
Next time translate foreign languages into English. It's neither difficult nor expensive.
A veiled hit piece on Musk, with emphasis on building Bezos up in the public eye.
Jeff Bezos sounds like Peewee Herman… lol
Bezos can’t even get a rocket to Orbit.
When you said as the narrator that Jeff Bezos considers himself the leader, I laughed out loud and I’m watching this by myself. If true, that’s a ridiculous statement and probably the best example of living in denial that I’ve ever heard. Jeff Bezos has a baby phallus rocket doesn’t put you in the space it just sort of lets you jump over the fence and take a quick look. Elon Musk the other hand is not trying to put six people in the space at a time for a quick hop over the top of the fence, but build a platform that can put, dozens of people on Mars and hundreds of tons of cargo into actual space. So if you’re just doing colorful commentary, you shouldn’t do that because people will think badly of Jeff Bezos. If you did not say that, then that’s a mean thing to do, but if he actually said he thinks he’s the leader then everyone should be laughing.
Elon didn't crash taking a reporter for a ride in his car
Musk v Bezos: not even close
The way Elon musk speaks is unique as someone might get impression that he is just a novice but he is the humble guru kind of thing and resilient wizard hard to find.
The most valuable documentary.
hey, this is an interesting story. I'm glad someone is doing this space race because governments sure as heck won't
Competition?????Jeff Bezos with that weird phallic "rocket"??? Yah right

Too bad the documentary could not catch the news of these days. The Dear Moon cancelation, the machinations in the decision making in the lunar lander contract. My guess is, starship will not land on the Moon, or at least not as part of Artemis.
Very good doc. Donny is heading behind bars, not beyond mars though
Great documentary. Thanks for sharing it...
I would be scared to death if I know Bezos lock the capsule's door
