Core Points - The Japanese space technology startup "iSpace" faced another failure in its lunar lander "Hakuto-R" attempt to land on the moon's surface on June 6 [1] - The CEO of "iSpace," Takashi Okada, indicated that telemetry data disappeared suddenly before landing, leading to the conclusion that a hard landing on the moon likely occurred [1] - The specific reasons for the landing failure are still under investigation [1] Mission Details - The mission named "Hakuto-R Lunar Exploration" was a follow-up to the previous attempt with "Hakuto-R 1" in December 2022, which also failed to complete the lunar landing [1] - The "Hakuto-R" lander was launched on January 15, 2025, aboard SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket and entered lunar orbit on May 7 [2] - The lander was equipped with several payloads, including a mini lunar rover, a water electrolysis device for the lunar surface, and a deep space radiation detector, with the planned landing site in the "Mare Frigoris" in the northern hemisphere of the moon [2] Technical Issues - It was confirmed that the laser altimeter measuring the distance between the lander and the moon's surface experienced delays, and the lander did not decelerate sufficiently to achieve the necessary landing speed [2] - The lander began its descent from an altitude of approximately 100 kilometers to about 20 kilometers, where the main engine ignited as planned, but telemetry data was lost during the descent [1][2]

Core Viewpoint - The article argues that the political alignment of tech billionaires, particularly their support for right-wing ideologies, is a return to their foundational beliefs rather than a sudden shift away from traditional Silicon Valley politics [1][2].

Group 2: Vision for the Future - Elon Musk's ambition for a self-sustaining colony on Mars by 2050 reflects a survivalist mentality, positioning space exploration as essential for humanity's future [3]. - Jeff Bezos's vision of a trillion humans living in space stations also highlights a similar ideal, suggesting that without such expansion, humanity faces stagnation and control [3][4]. Group 3: Feasibility of Space Colonization - Both Musk's and Bezos's plans for space colonization are criticized for being unrealistic due to the harsh conditions on Mars and the limited resources available in space [4]. - The notion that Mars serves as a backup plan for Earth is deemed absurd, as the challenges of living on Mars do not significantly differ from those on Earth [4]. Group 4: Corporate Control in Space - The envisioned space colonies represent a corporate-controlled environment, free from government oversight, creating a libertarian utopia [6]. - Musk's Starlink user agreement suggests that Mars would be governed solely by corporate interests, violating international space treaties [6]. - The potential for control over inhabitants in these corporate civilizations raises ethical concerns about autonomy and governance in space [6].
