SpaceX has a competitor! How 'bout that?

This will bear some watching. For now on, Blue Origin will get more attention here. (If I remember.)

Quick update:

There was some talk about using the Dragon to launch from the moon. In the comments section, there was a mention of the Falcon Heavy that it has the capability of putting a lot of mass on the Moon. Well hot dog if that's true. The Falcon Heavy could launch a return Dragon from the surface of the moon, and then use that to bring back the astronauts. You could land a Starship on the moon too, and all kinds of things.

Why should there be any problem at all in getting to the moon in a relatively short amount of time?
