My favorite movie is Iron Man. And I’d like to share with people my thoughts on Lockheed Martin, Stark Industries‘ role model in the film, through medium.

Lockheed Martin, a combination of the most advanced military aircraft company, and Martin, a missile company, is the world’s largest military company. They have developed the Aegis combat system, called God‘s Shield, the apocalyptic high-altitude missile defense system, the THAAD, and also space satellites that induced missiles and sought enemy missiles.

And the one that impresses me the most is the Hubble Space Telescope. The technology of military companies is soon equated with the technology for space exploration, so war also provides mankind with the opportunity to develop space exploration technology. The vision of humanity through the Hubble Space Telescope has been broadened and this is also the basis for the benefits of war.

If you go to Lockheed Martin’s homepage, you‘ll see the picture above. This shows five different worlds, each consisting of the Army, the Navy, the Air Force, the Space Force, and the Cyber Forces. And each area can only be dominated by monopolizing the platform, such as landcraft, hovercraft, aircraft, spacecraft, and cybercraft. Perhaps if there is a war, it will happen in these five regions, and I think the decision to win or lose the war is important in reverse order in the order I just said. And cyber warfare will soon bring AGI development.

Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk, who founded the world’s largest crypts, Amazon and Tesla, respectively, are heading into space through Blue Origin and SpaceX. And they have a fierce competition for each other in NASA‘s Artemis plan. Because lunar pioneering is so important to humanity that it is clear that the group that monopolizes as much as AGI will have power. Lockheed Martin is also one of those groups.

What should we do to become the most powerful group in the space-pioneering era? When it comes to terraforming or Mars, of course, transportation technology through rockets will be important, but the most important thing is to build a place to live there. Maybe in the future, it seems likely that a super-giant company that has monopolized the AGI, construction, energy and resources sectors will be stronger than a country and become a country itself.
