@Ryan Hall it's going ti be done because we want to do it, simple as, starship by itself will allow this, the most powerful and capable rocket who at the same time it's the cheapest and they are already preparing for the first orbital test flight in August of this year I personaly don't believe that we will have 1 million people by 2050, but man will go to Mars either this or the next decade that much is sure, at least try to Google about starship before talking and look a couple of videos, nasa spaceflight channel here on KZbin has an entire series of hundreds of videos dedicated to follow starship's construction and advancement and it's information that is widely available to the general public About being "meaningless" "stupid" and "unhelpful made up goals" i can notice from that alone that you are completly unaware of anything space related and your own biases and lack of knowledge cloud your judgement, space is the future of humankind, if we want to survive as a cohesive species we need to conquere space, the Mars goal only serves as a nice objective to center their efforts without running around as a headless chicken like other companies do like boeing or blue origin but the technology developed will and is already changing the world for the better in all aspects

3:08 while it's true that mars orbit is slightly more eccentric than earth's, it is not the reason for ever changing distances between the planets, that's just the effect of difference in orbital periods which is caused by differences in semi-major axes of the orbits and not their eccentricities

Just because a goal that benefits humanity as a whole is unrealistic does not mean that you should discourage him. As for the issues you stated: 1. Food can easily be transferred from Earth to Mars using Starship 100 tons cargo, or just simply by growing plants, start a farm, etc. 2. Oxygen can be created (How do you think people in outer space breathes?). 3. Water is literally inside of Mars, or just like food can be easily transferred from Earth to Mars.

Theoretically the mothership could be built more flimsy and with fewer engines so it can transport more cargo with less fuel, but that would mean assembling it in orbit, which may not be practical. And if it's capable of withstanding the stress of surface launch, then you might as well do that every time since it would save the tricky step of loading/unloading in orbit.

[@lassemjsvrholm2900]

Did you do the math? Did you!!? I tried. Only got to 159.001 martians wen i did the math. Assuming every woman is fertile, and get on avarage 2 children per year. I assume there must be screeining for fertility and chance for twins, triplets etc. Then there is 2000 children per year. Then we start with "child labour" at 16. As that is the general legal limit for that in Norway. At the start we have 1.001 martians. Then at year 15 we have 29.001 martians. Then is goes exponential as the first children become productive. So by year 25 we have 159.001. I dont think it is even remotly realistic to get a avarage of 2 birth per women per year. Remember that the first 1000 women now have birthed 50 children each. World record is 69. So we have already taken the 1000 most fertile people in the world. The burden on the man is not realy that big. 2,7 women per day need to... err... 2,7 per day. Time that by 5min, the avrage time neede... avrage time spent. And you have a workday of 13,5min. Once the chlildren are mature this will drasticly decreases the workload. I hope someone else can try and see what they get. Maybe if you reduce the age when you can... join the workforce. If you lunch Starhip from South Carolina where the age of concent is...11. Yes. That age is for people of same age, but that is not a problem in this case. Then you would in theory get great grandchildren for thte original man, so then maybe, just maybe you can get to 1.000.000. Edit: This all assume we stay at 0 TVs ALL 25 years. Edit: Bad news. Even lunching from South Carolina will only ressult in 359.001 martians. Good idea Rafael. But i just cant get the math to work.

In reality, Elon is taking the path of extreme optimism in the hopes that his attempts to go to mars will push technology forward faster than it would have otherwise.

[@oliverizzard8751]

Everything about that man is powered by wishful thinking. (Aka lying to the uneducated masses for popularity)

@@oliverizzard8751 It's mostly worked for his cars and is seemingly working for his launch systems. I have sincere doubts about things like hyperloop, BFR commuter travel and a bunch of other Musk projects.

He did the same things with Tesla. He was off by a couple of years but everything he said back in 2014 is starting to become true.

@@oliverizzard8751 stupidest take I’ve seen this year. Guy has the work ethic of a man w a gun to his head, and is dead set on doing everything he possibly can to get humanity into the next phases of technology. Many of his predictions have come to fruition through sheer force of will and you attribute all of this to lying so that he can be... popular? He’s trying to go to Mars to get away from dipshits like you 😂

[@jesusmora9379]

@@Enderia2 100 people is the objective, that doesn't mean it's going to be the final number. it might end up closer to 50 or 60. the space is there. the 18m starship is meant to solve this problem. the ISS is full of experiments, it is not meant to house many people. the most it has had was 8 people. the space shuttle was designed to carry 7 people, and it's far smaller. crew dragon can also carry 7 people and is even smaller.
