Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are two of the richest men on the planet. In the remarkable second act of their careers, they are pitted against each other in one of the defining corporate struggles of our times: the space race - which they both believe holds more profit for the winner than even the Internet can offer.
Now Musk and Bezos are leveraging their limitless wealth and power to build a new space economy from scratch, creating an underlying infrastructure for the space economy that did not exist. The results are nothing less than pure box-office - and could forever alter the frontiers of human life.
