Those are the it’s a pretty giant giant ones,” Musk said in a X Spaces conversation this week.Musk also confirmed that 2026 will see “major shipments” via Starship which will primarily be the next generation of Starlink satellites.

Elon Musk says manufacturing on Moon will be different

Musk’s SpaceX is partnering with NASA for upcoming Moon missions. When asked about ‘what it’s like to manufacture things on the moon because it can make different types of materials that you can’t make on Earth’, Musk said everything cannot be made on the Moon.“Well, I think the biggest option in the moon is to create is actually make silver cells and radiators.

And then, so you’re manufacturing on the moon, anything that weighs a lot. Chips maybe still come from Earth, but they don’t make they weigh very little,” Musk said.Meanwhile, Musk has also wished his followers “Happy New Year”, saying that “2026 will be a banger”. Musk also said that Tesla has made 9 million cars and “Tesla Model Y is now officially the world’s best-selling car for the third year in a row!”
