Elon Musk's crazy talk: $ 100,000 for the price of Martian citizens

At 2 PM ACST (ie 11:30 am on September 29, 2017) in Adelaide (South Australia) at the 68th International Astronomy Conference (IAC), billionaire Elon Musk has The 1-hour speech spoke about Mars's "colonization" plan in detail from now until 2024 (the time to officially bring people to the red planet).

Before "G" , Elon Musk posted a social network status with a shared line: "" The price "of going to Mars would be just by buying an apartment!".

The status line posted by Theverge.com cited Elon Musk's quote.

Perhaps for South African billionaires, "realizing" the dream of bringing people to another planet living at the lowest price can be his "double dream" .

Therefore, Elon Musk and SpaceX's highest goals are: "Take people to Mars for only (even) price below $ 100,000!" - This is exactly what SpaceX CEO said on Theverge.com.

So, let's see, to become an interplanetary citizen , Martian citizen , and how did you and SpaceX have to prepare specific plans?

The main content of the presentation is as follows:

Part 1: Introducing motives for the process of conquering Mars

The theme of Elon Musk's speech: Develop a plan to make people become Becoming a multiplanet species.

Musk developed a plan to bring people to become interplanetary species.

Opening the lecture, SpaceX's billionaire went straight to the point, introducing a series of engines, missiles and spaceships to serve the mission of conquering Mars over the next decade.

Accordingly, the giant rocket type (BFR) is the key "key" to help people move to the red planet as quickly as possible.

SpaceX is putting all its resources into building BFR.

Next, Elon Musk introduced the structure (head, body, tail and refueling process) of the BFR super rocket:

1. The whole body of BFR

Introduction to BFR.

BFR boosters have a length of 48m, diameter of 9m.

Built in BFR missiles .

2. BFR header construction

3. Structure of BFR body

4. Structure of BFR tail

5. BFR refueling process

Elon Musk said, BFR is very versatile, it can be used to launch satellites, clean up space "garbage" and support ISS International Space Station.

With these capabilities, Elon said, just one more year, BFR will land on the Moon and build a base "transfer station " here.

Part 2: "Moon Base Alpha" : Leap to the red planet

The next part of the presentation, billionaire Elon Musk talked about the important base on the Moon called "Moon Base Alpha". According to him, this is a "pedal" base for astronauts to conquer Mars in the near future.

According to NASA data, the distance from Earth to Mars is 78 million km, building an important base on the Moon (satellite 384,400 km from Earth) is a strategy that Elon Musk and SpaceX cook. aiming to be the "last refueling" place for humans to fly to Mars nearly 80 million kilometers away!

Part 3: Mars "colonization" plan between 2022 and 2024

Elon Musk believes that, over time, Mars citizens will become increasingly crowded.(Cut from video).

With what has been prepared, Elon Musk believes in his plan to conquer Mars. The South African billionaire's approach to Mars is divided into two main phases with two clear objectives:

1. 2022 : Elon Musk launches two cargo ships to the surface of Mars. When approaching the red planet, astronauts will confirm the water as well as the dangers in the new land. After that, infrastructure will be built, mining and energy sources are here to serve flights waiting for people to live.
2. 2024 : 2 spacecraft carrying people will bring Earth citizens to Mars to live. Elon Musk will launch two more cargo ships to provide the necessities and equipment necessary for new life.

In the same year, the scientific team will set up a fuel production plant and build a base to prepare for expansion.

Transportation system to Mars.

Elon Musk calculated the expected time of the missile landing on Mars.

At the end of the presentation, to demonstrate how SpaceX's giant rocket will travel "as fast as a bullet" in the future, Elon Musk introduced the entire video conference over a minute long. The process of traveling around the world at a speed of 27,000 m / h, from the point of view of the continent to the city of another continent takes no more than 40 minutes.

Watch video:

Hopefully in the future, we humans will set foot on Mars, becoming "aliens" for the red planet in the Solar System.

Of course, not only does Elon Musk raise the ambition to conquer this planet, both NASA and China have "long-term" plans to "colonize" the Martian pond.

Who will come first? Who will mark the first person in history to send people to Mars? Who will put his name on this century's cosmic record? Wait and find the answer! Soon!
