In response to Maher show’s claim that SpaceX would need venture capitalists or the government to fund for its ambitious mission of going to Mars, billionaire Elon wrote on his X that “... I’m not going to ask any venture capitalists for money. I realize that it makes no sense as an investment. That’s why I’m gathering resources.” SpaceX successfully launched the 6th flight test of Starship on 20th Nov from its Starbase in Texas, “aiming to expand the envelope on ship and booster capabilities and get closer to bringing reuse of the entire system online”. The event was witnessed by President-elect Donald Trump.

Mars is critical to the long-term survival of consciousness.
Also, I’m not going to ask any venture capitalists for money. I realize that it makes no sense as an investment. That’s why I’m gathering resources. https://t.co/XVCpHKlusD
