@ON D BIT will be happy to hear.
Remember:
One tiny crack in the hull and our blood boils in thirteen seconds. Solar flare might crop up, cook us in our seats. And wait'll you're sitting pretty with a case of Andorian shingles, see if you're still so relaxed when your eyeballs are bleeding. Space is disease and danger wrapped in darkness and silence.
Yes, ALL of them! LOL.
That's a very ambitious time line, but he'll try hard to do it. Question is, will he find volunteers to go on a probable one-way suicide run to Mars. There are things that money cannot buy, although it helps when pulling resources together for a really, really ambitious and nearly impossible venture like this one. I don't personally believe he'll succeed in sending humans (LIVE humans) to Mars by 2026. Too many big obstacles and challenges to overcome.

Some of you may die, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make.
After introducing the Tesla semi in November 2017, Tesla delayed production twice now til late 2021. So apply the Musk Multiplier to any Mars ambitions, and in this instance I think the multiplier is infinity.
They have talked about this before. Supply ships goes first.The only real way to go to Mars is to send a bunch of supplies in advance. You could never take that many supplies on the mothership. Also, no expert here, I believe depending on when you leave it can take 3 to 6 months to get there, depending on Mars' position, which changes every two years...
But hey, when they get there say hi to Arnold for me View attachment 1676110
This. It's a more difficult problem than many believe. We recently discovered that the Apollo missions were exposed to much higher doses of radiation than we expected. Once you get beyond the Van Allen Belts, you get pretty cooked.I am not shocked. It'll be interesting to see if he pulls it off.
I do wonder how they intend to overcome the lack of necessary technology. It would be serious innovation in a short period of time. Specifically thinking about the prolonged life in a Zero G environment, gamma/radiation exposure issues, and all the uber complicated things I have no experience or knowledge of.
Me, I’d do it to be the first one to rub one out on another planet.Honesty given my shit tastic life...
I’d be down.. why not. I’ll die eventually. Why not die on Mars
