I hope Space X can get it done—but I think it is a lot tougher than they think it is.

Elon Musk is about to face his biggest challenge—dead bodies on the moon are really bad public relations.

Sorry, the schedule has slipped at least 10 years now to 2034-2036. And may never happen due to many many problems stemming from the costs and needless complexity of the NASA plan.

The whole plan is some 20 launches just to get 4 guys to the moon, depends on SpaceX’s refueling concept, and on the Lunar Orbiter - which does not exist.
