Elon Musk, founder and CEO of SpaceX, has revealed a grand plan to send millions of people to Mars. On Sunday, February 11, he wrote on his X handle, "We have a game plan to take millions of people to Mars".
This announcement has sparked a huge discussion on the internet net media. Many have called Musk a genius, while others have criticized him as a freak.
Musk also said that Starship, the largest rocket ever built, will be used for missions to Mars. He believes that civilization will be so advanced that one day going from Earth to Mars will be as easy as getting on a plane from one place to another.
Musk's new announcement is consistent with his previous statements. He previously said that SpaceX would be able to send astronauts to Mars within the next 50 years. The Martian environment is not suitable for human habitation, so Musk's plan has many challenges to overcome.
Musk also recently announced the success of Neuralink. Neuralink is another Musk company that is developing technology to replace wireless chips in the human brain.
Both of Musk's announcements could have important implications for the future of humanity.
