The Moon has inspired a race for the first time since the Cold War. But this time winning is about cash. The Moon's large mineral wealth could make the world's first trillionaires. Engineers try to make moon bases out of underground lava tubes, or 3D-print a lunar colony using moon dust. Competing against all the Moon 2.0 startups is China. Who will stake the claim first to the Moon's riches?
