With the increase in technology in recent years, the distance between humanity and space is gradually decreasing. The American National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and giant companies carrying out space projects shed light on the unknown with the missions they organize. These institutions still have great unrealized goals. These include a crewed flight to Mars.
According to Elon Musk, a crewed flight to Mars will take place in 2029
The SpaceX company, of which Elon Musk is the CEO, is currently conducting many joint projects with NASA. Among these, the Falcon 9 rocket launched to the International Space Station (ISS) can be shown as the biggest and most important example. Musk, the richest person in the world, who did not fall on the agenda with his tweets, responded to the crewed flight to Mars via Twitter.
It is known by everyone that NASA has fantastic goals related to space. Space tourism, space mining, crewed flights to the Moon and Mars are some of them. The institution wants to get one step closer to these goals by establishing partnerships with space companies. Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX, answered “2029” in the question of crewed flight to Mars.
Such a project target has not been determined by any institution or company yet. NASA has a crewed flight target to the Moon under the Artemis project. But even that is targeted for 2028 at best. The Mars target seemed unlikely to happen anytime soon. However, Musk’s sharing left a question mark in the minds. In an interview last month, Musk announced that they have a flight target to Mars in 10 years.
At an event last week, Elon Musk used the expressions of the most powerful rocket to date while talking about Starship. Musk spoke quite confidently that it was extremely reliable for a manned flight. It is already a matter of curiosity whether there is a target that has not yet been announced.
