About Mars base in 2028

in #mars6 years ago

SpaceX plans to bring the artists led by Zozotown's Yusaku Maezawa to the Big Falcon Rocket (BFR).

However, Elon Musk CEO are looking forward to the colonization the Mars far beyond the moon. Although there is still a concept stage, Mr. Musk tweeted his concept design.

It is somewhat strangely SF like... There are small rocket departure and departure place, some colonies like a village, and trees growing in a big dome. From there to the lower right, you can see the solar panel also that a lot of are spread.

In response to the question: probably 2028. No doubt in ten years that it is unlikely that it will be possible to form colonies as per this image on far-off Mars... Maybe planning begins that year, is not it?

Training talent who moves to Mars now, who moves to but the technical part seems to take more.

It will be interesting to see the problems that will come during colonization of mars and also what steps SpaceX will take. Thanks for sharing, hope we will be multiplanetary soon.

Mars is very toxic. .5% of the soil is perchlorate. It's a megafund site.

What's more worrying for SpaceX is Musk's interview with Rogan. Whether you feel marijuana is something to be banned or not, SpaceX is an American Department of Defense contractor and the DOD has very strict rules of drugs, including 420, for its contractors. An investigation, I have been told, has begun and...he might have as bad happen for SpaceX (or worse) as what happened with Tesla. If he loses control of SpaceX, there won't be a private colonization of Mars by SpaceX.

Yes i too listen about it, what we want to see Musk in SpaceX and colonization of mars. And yes marijuana must also be banned as it is a major drug in India for rural people .

thanks for your comment @anzha
Also, these projects need money.., I think... not only SpaceX, other countries working for the same goal. The last couple of years, Dubai actively working on Mars project... to colonize. With the money, they can initiate s similar mission, they can buy new talent and technology at the same time.

The US government is working on it as well. The Gateway Station is meant to be used for the moon and where they assemble the Mars ship. 2028, iirc, is when they will build the mars ship and then do a year or two long test voyage in cislunar space. The reason for waiting until 2031 for the Mars mission is because NASA will get a free return trajectory to Earth for the Mars mission, increasing safety on the first one.

I cannot speak for other nations, really.

Excellent project! And it would be great if we can stay in Mars, too! Thanks for sharing. ;)
