A Canadian entrepreneur has proposed a real estate project that would take Dubai’s skyscraper-studded skyline to new heights— by building a replica of the moon.
Michael Henderson’s new project, simply dubbed MOON, will be just like the real moon that Earth’s billionaire space tourists may one day visit, only 0.008-percent the size.
The project Henderson proposes includes a destination resort inside the spherical structure, complete with a 4,000-room hotel, an arena capable of hosting 10,000 people and a ‘lunar colony’ that would give guests the sensation of actually walking on the moon.
The $5 billion real estate project would see the 900-foot (274-meter) replica sit atop a 100-foot (30-meter) building somewhere in the shadow of the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, which is 2,722ft tall (829m).
‘We have the biggest “brand” in the world,’ Henderson told reporters, suggesting that the moon itself was his brand.
