I'd love to go to Mars and live in a shitty bunker while my lungs get shredded by irradiated razor sharp dust
Any competent engineer would have accounted for such a basic and obvious threat to life in space and mars such as radiation. Therefore no further inquiry is required we can just give him the benefit of the doubt.
It really all just boils down to “how DARE you question your betters” doesn’t it?
The whole eggs/fertility thing is really based on a huge (and largely deliberate) misunderstanding of reproductive biology and how ovarian follicles work and die. You're essentially at peak fertility at 30, most of the eggs die off before age 5.
ShowIt's so funny that the logical conclusion of this guy's life is Starlink satellites inevitably causing Kessler syndrome and preventing humans space exploration.
I prefer to dream big. Eternal night sky pollution with 20 TW geosynchronous powersats please. Death to Earth based astronomy, or something.
Musk creating a Mars colony is the Star Citizen of space travel.
I'm not as familiar with the Star Citizen situation aside from the posts about it on here but it's also funny how those devs are the whales for such a long time now, and yeah Musk has been getting away with it for decades.. low priced electric cars, self driving cars, sentient AI, Mars colony, you name it, the techbros were the biggest marks for it as usual
Elon make a post without being creepy about breeding challenge
I want him to be confident enough that him and his six richest friends go early on
4 years
Wow, in my lifetime the Mars LandingsTM have gone from being perpetually 20 years away, to perpetually 10 years away, to perpetually 4 years away. Truly impressive!
I wonder if we’ll be down to perpetually 2 years away in 10 years!
Moon is right there, and have same conditions (no magnetic field, no atmosphere, carcinogenic dust)
Putting nukes on the moon will probably be first case of building something there
Or maybe pog telescope
The great thing about Mars is there's no pesky age of consent laws!
How did that quote not be sus to anyone? Like that seriously implies that there is an earth law he wants to break, but he is smart enough to know not even he can get away with criticizing that earth law.
I genuinely believe the entirety of SpaceX only exists because he wants to be free from any semblance of consequences for SA
I hope his first class spaceship accidentally sets a course straight for the sun, communication from Earth gets cut off, and there’s nothing he or his billionaire friends can do as they’re slowly incinerated
I bet Musk creates a weapons program before he lands on Mars. If he wants to be emperor of Mars he'll need a threat in order to prevent rebellion and the colony declaring independence from him the moment it gains any kind of self sufficiency.
Longest [REDACTED] comment ever. Just plug in your own thoughts on adventurism here.
lol, no one has been able to build a self-sustaining city on Earth, but I'm sure that's just all the pesky oxygen and water that is freely available getting in the way, right? Do you think he's even talked to the Biosphere people? Hell, do you think he's even watched Bio-Dome?
