Amps With Elon’s billions, it looks like we could see a human on Mars in my lifetime, fairly fuckin impressive imo.
Dan A scientist on 5 live reckons they’ll use the moon as a launching pad as it’s easier and uses less fuel. I can see Space X enabling this. I’d also like to see Richard Branson, Piers Morgan and Richard Hammond commandeer the flight.
Amps Dan I’d also like to see Richard Branson, Piers Morgan and Richard Hammond commandeer the flight. Surely they should be reserved for the next ‘Sun / Solar’ mission, just to make sure?

Was reading about this a while back, I think Elon’s idea is to build everything in orbit, which he believes will be even easier than the moon. The issue is the amount of propellant needed, think NASA is still keen on a nuclear option with Space X going for standard ish rocket fuel. I could be wrong on that though.
