Get ready for humanity's next big leap into space, of course if it's not just another marketing strategy, Elon Musk, the visionary behind SpaceX, has just revealed more details about his bold plans to colonize Mars, stating that the first spacecraft His company's StarShip will leave for the red planet in 2026, with the first crewed missions scheduled for 2028.

Yes you read correctly, Elon Musk wants to turn humanity into an interplanetary species, it is not the first time that Musk makes daring predictions, some of his promises have come true, while others have been left behind, such as the futuristic cybertruck and the enigmatic hyperloop, but when it comes to space exploration Musk's track record is impressive, not only did he revolutionize the electric car industry with Tesla, but he also transformed the aerospace sector by creating the reusable Falcon 9 rocket that made autonomous landings a routine.

Technologically the StarShip is progressing rapidly if all goes well both stages of the rocket will return to their launch site where they will be captured by huge mechanical arms and quickly adjusted for new flights and Elon Musk's vision goes further, he wants to build a fleet of 1000 StarShip ships to colonize Mars, which according to him will require no less than 10 launches per day to assemble and supply this interplanetary armada.

With each new advance, the dream of making humanity a multiplanetary species seems closer to becoming a reality, now we just have to follow closely and see if the StarShip will really take off towards Mars in 2026.
