Elon Musk is pretty focused on his mission Mars and to send humans to the red planet by 2026. Musk is clearly enamored by Mars as was apparent in his recent tweet. “Hey babe” is what he wrote to tweet that showed the red planet’s full rotation shared by NASA’s hubblE.
Recently, Musk, the SpaceX and Tesla boss, appeared on the exclusive audio-only Clubhouse app, joining The Good Time Show to tAlk about his plans to propel humans to Mars.
About Mars specifically, for the first time ever, Musk mentioned a timeline to get humans on the red planet. “Five and a half years,” Musk told hosts Sriram Krishnan and Aarthi Ramamurthy at the beginning of the show, reports CNET. While that’s not a hard deadline. Musk listed a number of caveats — there’s a raft of technological advances that must be made in the intervening years. “The important thing is that we establish Mars as a self-sustaininG civilization,” he said.
