Elon Musk: we can launch a manned mission to Mars by 2024

Elon Musk gives an update on the progress SpaceX, his commercial space agency, is making on interplanetary space travel. Musk tells the audience that he believes a cargo mission to Mars will be possible by 2022, with a manned mission following in 2024. He envisages the creation of an inhabited city on the planet, with up to 100 people able to travel to the base per trip

We're here, in 2024. Recent test burned up during re-entry. The ship can't even orbit the earth yet. Let alone send people to Mars. Will never happen. At least where they survive.

OK, well it's August 2023... any progress?

[GreenPartyHat]

We will never cross the ocean, we will never fly, we will never go to space, we will never go to the moon....

[faisalsvideoworld]

lol 2024 and they havent even got back to moon yet and they were talking about crewed missions to mars in 2024 haha what a joke

[focus]

It is embarassing that we´ve landed on the moon in 1969 but in 2024 we are nowhere.

Elon Musk, as always, selling snake oil.

[nightowl]

Oh no! We aren't going to make it in 2024 but guess what? We are alot closer now than we otherwise would have been.

Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids ...

[jasoncavitt]

(SPOILER ALERT)

There will be no manned mission to Mars in 2024.

[charliemcnuggets]

anyone still talking combustible engines...your not smart..your rich and fortunate...how dare you...

[PM-jmmd]

Wrong...always failing his time schedules, see Tesla...

[Reconseal]

But problem is Mars doesn't have a magnetic shield so it makes it tough to go outside

[mattizzle]

Mars is a really bad destination compared to Titan. Too bad Mars is so close and Titan would take 7 years or so of travel.

[tankourito]

This didn't age very well. It looks like 2030 at the very earliest now. Probably 2034.
