Hopefully with him inside it. Then he will be ruler of Mars.

Yeah, no. Not happening. Might be 2056 by a new company.

The first time he said it was 2015, promising Mars landing by 2016. A decade ago. In a full decade SpaceX managed to reach lower earth orbit.
Edit: grammar

Total bullshit. What happened to getting to the moon?

I don’t agree with the sentiment that it is totally unrealistic. Launching a rocket is not hard. Reenty is what’s hard. It should be very possible to have a starship ready to go to moon and mars by 2026. But the tankers doing orbital tanking will likely not be reused.
And landing in Mars atmosphere might not go as expected, but we have gotten rovers on there so even if starship can’t aerobreak into a landing, it could still deliver some payload.
Ok thats enough positivity, Now lets go on with bashing elon. I don’t hope he will be on the rocket to mars, that is too far in the future. I hope he succumbs to a ketamine overdose tomorrow.

No it won’t. Musk has been promising this Mars trip since 2015 or so. Starship keep blowing up. According to Musk 4x Starships, 2x Crew, 2x Cargo, were suppose to land on Mars in 2024. Musk is no genius, he really, really isn’t.

Unfortunately, spaceX is getting under fire from musks “influencer”. Just a reminder for everyone here to focus on the science, not the politics.
But if musk convinces the government to cut nasa funding then I’ve lost any shred of the faith I had in the “cool space entrepreneur”

Mars Immigration: How long do you plan to stay on Mars?
Me: Two weeks.
Mars Immigration: Are you carrying anything illegal?
Me: Two weeks.

I mean it’s probably feasible, if the real target is to go and crash on Mars ?

You would have thought that the article could at least link to Musk’s tweet:
*“Starship departs for Mars at the end of next year, carrying Optimus.“*
*“If those landings go well, then human landings may start as soon as 2029, although 2031 is more likely.“*

Well, that is possible, though not probable. Actually original Mask’s tweet make more sense that this statement adding „carrying Optimus“. Which is creating purpose for a thing – advertisement complain for Optimus. Very expensive complain but effective.
