Will Mars be migrated in the future? If it is specific.

Space exploration technology company, the first private company in the world to successfully launch a launch vehicle, has made amazing achievements. Elon musk, its president and founder, once again made surprising remarks. He revealed his grand plan to the media: to build a community on Mars.

Musk said: "If we control the cost of everyone moving to Mars at around $2 million, we can create a big market. It is estimated that there are 65,438+0,000 to 20,000 people on the earth who are willing to emigrate to other planets. People don't have to scrimp and save on buying a house on earth, and the money saved can be used to move to space. "

Not interested in developing space minerals

Musk is not an aerospace expert, but his ambition is to compete with state-led space agencies with low-cost space launches and seize the space freight market. Despite the bright future, Musk knows that the future budget of NASA, its biggest customer, will definitely decrease. Therefore, some employees suggest that space exploration technology companies should develop space minerals. Musk said: "I am not interested in hopeless things. Is it more expensive to develop earth minerals than to develop space minerals? "

24 billion yuan big single has strength.
