It’s no secret that a new Space Race has been brewing over the past few years. This time, rather than being a competition between two federal space agencies, the race has more competitors and is more complicated. In addition to more state competitors, there are also commercial space entities vying for positions and lucrative contracts. Add to that a network of public-private partnerships, and you have Space Race 2.0!

Maybe this is a good thing. Having competition with the Russians back in the day is what got us to the Moon in the first place. So, maybe this competition among civilian companies will lead us back to the Moon.
