Lunar circumnavigation in 2023 by SpaceX, Japanese Billionaire

I watched the SpaceX presentation live last night, and Musk was at his usual best. The Japanese art collector-billionaire made a short speech in English wherein he explained why he was doing this.

Here's the SpaceNews.com story:https://spacenews.com/spacex-signs-up-japanese-billionaire-for-circumlunar-bfr-flight/

Here's the link to the entire presentation:https://youtu.be/DV2TLnMfoYo
