$AMZN 🤑I asked Ai about Bezos and out CEO Steve Altemus @
$LUNR and their affiliation and it ANSWERED:
Yes, Intuitive Machines CEO Steve Altemus has publicly mentioned that he is friends with both Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk. Intuitive Machines CEO Steve Altemus confirmed in a CNBC interview that he is friends with both Elon and Jeff Bezos.
During a 2025 CNBC interview with Morgan Brennan, Altemus discussed various business strategies for Intuitive Machines and how the government shutdown was affecting new space contracts. He was also asked about his personal relationship with Jeff Bezos. In response, Altemus mentioned that they are friends.
Bezos is heavily involved in the space industry through his company Blue Origin, and Altemus has a strong background in space exploration from his time as the Director of Engineering at NASA's Johnson Space Center before co-founding Intuitive Machines. Their shared professional interests in aerospace appear to be the foundation of their friendship
