SpaceX Starship Update Elon Musk Wants To Send One Million People To Mars By 2050!
SpaceX's billionaire founder and CEO Elon Musk outlined some ambitious goals for the company's Starship Mars-colonization system.
Musk answered a volley of questions over Twitter on 16th January Thursday evening, providing more details about SpaceX Starship and how it will eventually need to work in order to achieve Musk’s goal of making humans an interplanetary species with a colony on Mars.
The SpaceX Starship architecture consists of a big spaceship called Starship, which Musk has said will be capable of carrying up to 100 people, and a giant rocket named Super Heavy. Both of these vehicles will be reusable; indeed, rapid and frequent reuse is key to Musk's overall vision, which involves cutting the cost of spaceflight enough to make Mars colonization and other bold exploration feats economically feasible.
He has discussed some of this before, but Musk reiterated that SpaceX Starship will need to operate on a brisk schedule, ferrying many megatons per year of cargo to the Red Planet in order to establish and maintain a human presence there.
In this video Engineering Today will discuss Elon Musk’s ambitious goals for the company's Starship Mars-colonization system: where Elon Musk gives details about sending 1 million people to Mars by 2050.
Lets get started.
