"First, you have to bring enough food, water, clothes, and medical supplies for the crew in addition to all the scientific instruments you will want to take. You also have to bring all that fuel! In addition, if you are in space for nine months, you will need a lot of shielding to protect you from the radiation of the Sun. Water, and cement make good shielding but they are very heavy. All together, it is estimated that for a crew of six, you would need to 3 million pounds of supplies! The Shuttle can lift about 50,000 pounds into space, so it would take 60 shuttle launches to get all your supplies into space. In the history of the Shuttle, there have only been about 90 launches, and there are less than ten launches per year... So with the shuttle, it would take six years just to get the supplies into space. For this reason, you would probably need to develop a launch system that could lift more than 50,000 pounds into space. Even with a better launch vehicle, it is unlikely that you could launch the Mars mission all at once. You will have to launch it in several pieces and assemble them in orbit."

This is a load of stuff. Watch thunderf00t, he's debunked a stuff-ton of Musk's "innovations"

more like a natural 30, but yeah I know what you mean

No, more like a natural 20, lol.

1/20 = 0.05
2/31 = 0.065
2/29 = 0.069

You're actually more likely to blow up than roll a nat20. And yeah, aviation has to progress and all, but I don't pity the people that sign up as the first martian explorers, lol.

how gay do you have to be to have richard vision?

hahahahahahahhahah whoa ok slow down here

this thing can bring 450 tons of payload to mars, do you think 200 people weigh 450 tons?

of course they will bring food, you can get water on mars through something called ICE, and also if you didn't know you can extract Oxygen from water.

and mars already has an atmosphere but it's like 90% CO2, it's called habitation modules you don't just chuck the colonials on mars without spacesuits and let them fend for themselves how stupid do you have to get to not understand basic survival in harsh climates.

actually, I don't even know if you are trying to be satirical

but anyways if you are sceptical I suggest you read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_situ_resource_utilization
