Sunday, 08 February 2026 07:27 PM EST

Elon Musk said on Sunday that SpaceX has shifted its focus to building a "self-growing city" on the Moon, which he said could be achieved in less than 10 years.

"That said, SpaceX will also strive to build a Mars city and begin doing so in about 5 to 7 years, but the overriding priority is securing the future of civilization and the Moon is faster," Musk added in an X post.
