The billionaire Tesla executive on Tuesday said that he is “highly confident” that SpaceX will be able to send humans to Mars by 2026, if not earlier.

“We want to send an uncrewed vehicle there in two years,” Musk said “I think if you said [we’ll put a human on Mars] six years from now, I’d say I’m highly confident, and if we get lucky maybe four years.”

The world’s second-richest man, behind only Amazon CEO and fellow rocket company owner Jeff Bezos, said one of his main concerns is developing the technology necessary to make human life “multiplanetary,” saying he wanted to see a base on the moon and “a city on Mars.”

“I think it’s important that we strive to have a self-sustaining city on Mars as soon as possible. I’m optimistic about the future on Earth, but I think it’s important to have life insurance for life as a whole.”

Musk first unveiled his plans to colonize Mars in 2016. Two years later, he said there was a “70-percent chance” he would move to Mars but also admitted there was a “good chance” he could die on his way there.

How about putting all that money and resources to help the homeless? The people who barely get by? The issues on this planet?

The first thing he’d do is tweet that the Martians were pedofiles and then waste millions on private investigators to try and prove it

Quite the opposite because it’s even farther from the sun than we are :cryga:
