A #MassDriver* is a very long track stretching across the lunar 🌙 surface, angled skyward 🌌 at its far end, which is lined with hundreds of #electromagnetic coils. These fire in a precise sequence. The bucket 📦 never makes mechanical contact with any surface, guided entirely by the interplay of magnetic 🧲 fields, which is why these systems have a theoretical operational lifespan of up to millions of launches with negligible wear https://fastcompany.co.za/co-design/2026-02-24-how-elon-musks-moon-cannon-could-transform-space-travel
