Elon Musk Admits In Amazement About The Mission To Conquer Mars: "Many People May Die"

Elon Musk believes that some fatal crashes will occur when SpaceX begins sending people to Mars to explore and colonize the Red Planet.

"You can die, living on Mars is also uncomfortable and there may not be good food," Elon Musk told Peter Diamandis, founder of Xprize - a nonprofit that specializes in ideas and organizations. hold public contests to encourage technology development for the benefit of mankind.

"To be honest, a significant number of astronauts are likely to die in the first place," Elon Musk emphasized. Even so, the SpaceX founder also thinks it will be a glorious adventure, an incredible experience. However, it's "not for everyone" but "only for volunteers!".

Elon Musk's space company has launched more than 100 rockets in the past decade in an effort to send passengers traveling to the Moon and Mars. However, some of the SpaceX's unmanned prototypes caught fire. However, in December of last year, Elon Musk predicted that his company would put humans on Mars by 2026.

In 2015, Musk discussed building a city on Mars after the SpaceX rocket successfully landed. He then published a paper in June 2017 about turning humanity into an interplanetary species, setting out a plan to have as many as 1 million people on Mars by 2050.

Most recently, SpaceX signed a contract with NASA to carry out a mission to bring astronauts to the Moon worth $ 2.89 billion. As part of the agreement, SpaceX will build reusable Starship ships for manned flights outside of Earth orbit.
