Musk shared his expectations on Twitter. One of the users asked the businessman when humanity will land on Mars. The American billionaire answered the subscriber’s question as “2029”. According to Musk, humans will be able to set foot on the surface of the Red Planet by the end of this decade.
Musk previously suggested the year 2026
Musk previously said that SpaceX would send a human to Mars by 2026. He probably now thinks this date is out of reach. Some users think that even 2029 sounds ambitious and there is still much to be done to pave the way for such a mission.
Subject to regulatory approval, the Starship launch vehicle may make its first orbital test flight in the next few months. The future of SpaceX and its possibility of conquering Mars by 2029 will depend on how these tests pass.
