Elon Musk calls Jeff Bezos a 'copycat' on Twitter, for launching satellites via CNBCMakeIt
div > div.group > p:first-child"> In response to an article from the MIT Technology Review that announced Amazon's plans to launch more than 3,000 internet-providing satellites, Musk called Bezos a copycat, with the"cat" portion of the word replaced with a cat emoji.Presumably, that's because in February 2018, Musk's SpaceX launched satellites to provide"global broadband" to the"least served" areas around the world.
And according to CNBC, Bezos hired a SpaceX executive, Rajeev Badyal, to run the Amazon's satellite project after Musk fired him. Last year, Bezos wished SpaceX luck with a Falcon Heavy launch. Musk's response then, too, was cheeky — he included an emoji blowing a kiss along with his thanks. Bezos then tweeted rocket emojis back at Musk.Musk and Bezos, after all, are both billionaires with a mission to make it possible for people to live in space.
For Musk, life on Mars would start with a single outpost:"Build up the base, starting with one ship, then multiple ships, then start building out the city, then making the city bigger, and even bigger. And yeah, over time terraforming Mars and making it really a nice place to be," he said in September.
