Unfortunately, china already is. Defenses are a lot harder to make than offense

I try to just recognize the side benefits of more money and tech into space.

But also there are a ton of natural resources. There is an insane amount of titanium on the moon. Even if they dropped it through orbit and lost most of it. It would be insanely valuable. More likely they will use it to build. The moon is a pretty outstanding launchpad.

I have to agree that it’s inevitable and more money going to space technology is a good thing.
