Musk says he’ll launch a Starship to Mars in 2 years and the takedowns are out of this world
It’s easy to forget that Elon Musk‘s job isn’t amplifying far right disinformation on social media, but he’s the actual CEO of SpaceX, and he has made a mission to Mars his, well, mission.
He recently posted a prediction relating to that goal.
Do we need to actually put the ‘Sure, Jan’ gif here, or has it already fully formed in everbody’s head?
The scepticism was stratospheric.

If Musk was as invested in saving planet earth as he is in plans to travel to another planet we might get somewhere towards safeguarding the future of humanity. https://t.co/uf2viNw8pc

The existence of an Earth-Mars transfer window must mean that there's an Earth-Mars transfer deadline day.
Looking forward to the coverage on Sky.

Didn't you say in 2011 you would put man on Mars in 10 years?
SpaceX hasn't even landed humans on the moon yet.

Can you imagine being in a small colony on Mars with him….?

Perhaps Mr Musk could sort some more earthly issues with his products before he worries about getting to Mars.
he can't even hire people to design a decent looking truck and he thinks we'll be colonizing mars under his guidance
