Elon Musk plans to build thousands of spacecraft, send millions of people to Mars

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk says his next goal is to build 100 Starship spacecraft a year and send 1 million people to Mars by 2050.

According to the US financial website Benzinga, Elon Musk thinks that to migrate to Mars, it will probably need nearly 1 million people, to ensure enough human resources to survive on this red planet.

Recently, a popular Youtuber 'Lex Fridman' asked what exists beyond our universe and whether humans can explore that deep space. In response to this question of 'Lex Fridman', Elon Musk said: 'That's why we have to expand the scope and scale of consciousness, then we can understand the answer to the question. these questions.'

Recently, Elon Musk also talked about humans and how he can create multi-planetary life by transporting life to Mars.

When a Twitter user asked Elon Musk about his space plans, Musk replied that he plans to build at least 1,000 giant Starship spacecraft to send humans to Mars.

According to Business Insider, 1,000 Starship ships that can be reused over the next 10 years are being built by SpaceX. If truly successful, Starship will become the most powerful rocket launch system ever created. With each launch, it can carry 100 people into orbit at once.

Elon Musk said that Starship will be able to establish a self-sufficient city on Mars, but of course, this ambition will require a million tons of materials taken from Earth.

Musk said he plans to 'build more than 1,000 Starship spacecraft to transport life to Mars,' essentially 'a modern version of the Noah's Ark.'

Noah is the legendary ark mentioned in chapters 6 to 9 of the Book of Genesis in the Bible, describing how Noah built this ark according to God's will, to save him and his family, and the animals from escaping. perished by God's cataclysmic punishment.

In the past, Elon Musk has talked about his long-term space plan, which is to build a human settlement on Mars, which he hopes will eventually create a city and migrate all living things. land animals there. In this tweet, it can be said that he has revealed more details about the 'Noah's Ark' plan.

In March of this year, Elon Musk also predicted when humans will set foot on Mars. He tweeted that the first time humans could land on Mars would be '2029.

Earlier, Rick Fisher, a senior fellow at the 'International Assessment and Strategy Center' (IASC), wrote in the English Epoch Times that in the space sector, Elon's success is on the rise. Musk and his company SpaceX are closely involved in the interests of the United States Government.

In space, Elon Musk and China are big rivals, and their ambitions will determine who will control the Earth-Moon-Mars system.

Thanks to America's democracy and free enterprise, in less than 20 years, Elon Musk has been able to build SpaceX into a leading global innovator, producing more and more, Mr. Fisher said. Space-launched transport rockets can be reused, greatly reducing the cost of space exploration, specifically saving about 10 million USD for every 100 tons of materials put into space. Elon Musk thinks this is possible in a few years.

"It appears that China is viewing Elon Musk as a formidable challenger in space, replacing Tesla's previous priority of stealing electric vehicle technology," Fisher wrote.
