Musk's Mars ambition
Musk has emphasised his ambition to send an uncrewed mission to Mars by 2026 and possibly land humans on the Red Planet by 2031. The upcoming launch follows a series of eight test flights since 2023. While recent tests have ended in mid-air explosions, the rocket boosters performed as expected, safely returning to Earth.
Musk sees Mars as crucial to humanity’s survival.
"That’s one of the benefits of Mars—it’s life insurance for life collectively. We need to become a multi-planet civilization, because Earth will eventually be incinerated," he said in a recent interview with Fox News. NASA estimates that this could happen in about six billion years, due to the expansion of the Sun.
