The Dark side of the moon

I watched this clip with some questions; I saw Joseph with DJ on their latest effort talking about Trumps request for Musk to make a mission to the dark side of the moon.
And it sounded like that might be a more clandestine operation than just harvesting the moon for its minerals,but then again; the ones who first get to harvest the moon for minerals and energy sources like “helium 3” will position themselves the best for building bases for further space travels.
I would assume controlling the dark side of the moon is essential in such a scenario.
But what could be other scenarios Trump is envisioning with going to the dark side of the moon?
And what is the metallic object in question?
