“Civilisation only passes the single-planet Great Filter when Mars can survive even if Earth supply ships stop coming,” he noted, adding, “One day, a trip to Mars will be like a flight across the country.”
This announcement aligns with Musk’s previous statements about ambitious space exploration goals. He noted that the SpaceX Dragon spaceship will take astronauts the furthest they’ve been from Earth in over half a century. Musk added that a lot of work will be required to live on Mars.
Musk’s plans with the Moon

“We should have a permanent human base on the moon, followed by sending people to Mars. There might be more beyond the space station, but time will tell,” he previosuly said.
