    Question Does anyone think we SpaceX (Elon Musk) can land the first people on mars by 2024?

    Have you followed the planning for the Mars mission? The plan is to launch drone ships that will contain habitat and supplies that will be there when the colonists arrive. I fully expect that there will be a thriving colony there by 2030.

    Every time someone expresses some sort of doubt about Elon's capabilities it's like a "hold my beer" challenge to him. He WILL get people on MARS, alive and well. And if there is a tragedy then we chalk it up to the cost of human exploration.

    It's an exciting time to be alive. I truly envy the 20 and 30 somethings who are making this happen.
