Actual "commercial" space exploration is still a ways off, but the whole goal of NASA was to do the basic R&D and funding of space exploration and leave it up to private industry to come up with assembly lines to make commercial products for space in terms of ships, equipment and other common components. But as far as an individual company paying for a full space mission to the moon or mars on their own dime. Not going to happen any time soon without some way of making a profit on such a venture.

"who would be the first nation to land people on the moon?" we are still waiting for it to happen.

I could be wrong but we are able to witness one of the greatest technological advancements and a turn in human habitation. Not only are we working on nuclear engines to power these ships to go faster for a longer period of time but set up living quarters on other planets to ensure the human race survives and to study. Very cool

Space exploration, i.e. exploration of outer space, is a high risk venture business as there are a large number of variables that cannot be foreseen and need to be controlled. Blue origin and Virgin galactics have launched operations in the low orbit space tourism, which have different characteristics and safety requirement from space exploration indeed. These include ship design, telemetrics, radiation shield, crew training, etc etc. The only company potentially capable to manage an extraorbital mission at this moment in spacex.

The title is really misleading.. It says "private companies" but it's only 1/3 of the documentary's content.

The custom of which we saw the robot and mecanism to install the by product where as the computer in action to problem.

2 things come to mind 1) The song sang by Count Basie and Frank Sinatra 2) The habitats for the Moon and Mars should be done underground. Why? think meteors and asteriods and that's why. One tiny meteor will destroy whatever habitat we create, it would be a shame to fund a mission to Mars or the Moon just to have it destroyed by a tiny rock or a big one travelling at 72 KPS. I think the scientific community are thinking too linear about the problem of living out in space and thinking too much of the buildings we have here on Earth. They need to be thinking like insects and how they burrow underground to create their living space to escape danger. I also think it will help with solar and cosmic radiation. They need to think like that Sci fi program called Sylo. That's how we survive out in space we need to create adaptations of how resilient insects survive here on 🌎. Scientists are not designers they look at problems differently to architects.

Who the heck is down-voting this documentary?!

Putting a habitat on the surface is nuts /crazy, they will need resources so mine with robots, and then turn the tunnels into a under ground settlement. Dust storm, radiation all the rest of stuff that could kill you on the surface, no brainer really.
