As Curiosity, the $2.5 billion Mini Cooper-sized Mars rover, touched down on the Red Planet on August 3, 2012, Elon Musk was already planning the next logical step – sending humans there. As with all of Musk’s space plans, his goal was not short on ambition. The Mars Messiah is not interested in merely ferrying people to Mars; Musk wants to make it possible for people to live there. Permanently. Musk acknowledges that one of the biggest challenges of colonizing the Red Planet is making the trip affordable, suggesting a round-trip ticket price should be around half a million dollars. It is a bold plan, but ‘bold’ is an appropriate moniker for the man who created PayPal, Tesla, and SpaceX.
