Has anyone been following this story?

Putting a colony on Mars sounds interesting. (Not that I want to go.wink)

Wayne met some of the SpaceX guys yesterday. His plant made a prototype part, for the Mars rocket.

If they get the contract, Baker parts will be going to Mars!

LOL! Pretty cool!biggrin

I need to get an update from my niece's husband who is part of the team. Maybe he has some links he can share.

I heard that those who go up won’t be coming back to earth and may not be able to even if they wanted to.

As crewed missions arrive on the surface, the first priority would be scouting and processing local supplies. Starships are designed to run on liquid methane-oxygen fuel, Wooster said, in part because of the low cost of those ingredients on Earth but also because scientists believe they can be produced on Mars. Among the first tasks for Starship missions would be mapping the availability and accessibility of the raw materials for that fuel, so humans would have a way to get back home to Earth.
