Good luck to SpaceX if they can achieve landing humans on the Mars in 6 to 7 year, Musk can brag all the things in the world he wants like establishing human colony of at least 10000 people on Mars by 2040 some years ago put forward by him. NASA doesn't plan to send humans to Mars until 2040. Chinese Mars station should be build around late 2030s.
If SpaceX is saying it can and seeing its non-traditional non-"industry" ways then it will. And please have a read and watch of the MEGA drive post I linked below and which will realize newer kind of flying vehicles including spacecraft.
Okay. Now all you need is an engineer capable of going twice the speed of light to reach there in 16 years.
Or,
On teleportation, don't know what people believe here about teleportation. But let's say it's possible. Till when can we expect to crack the code ? And what are the theories ? Can we teleport ourselves to other planets ?
@jamahir
Teleportation can certainly work but only once the receiver / assembler is in place on the target world but then too beaming the info of the living or non-living source object may encounter problems like solar activity interference and rock or ice objects in space so the info many never reach and never be known for hours or days for far away places. But the technique is workable and useful for normal uses when the source object ( living or non-living ) can stay on at the transmission place in normal space weather but in emergencies in unusual space weather it is better to go in spacecraft, either chemically-propelled as now or using the in-development MEGA drive whose article and interview of the chief designer I posted here and the MEGA drive can supposedly propel the craft to light speed without any traditional fuel ( chemical or nuclear ) and with the only input being electricity.
Now I'm curious, have SpaceX already know the way how to re-launch their Star Ship from the Mars surface? I haven't seen SpaceX send their Starship to Mars, nor even land their space craft or even bring their space craft up, and leave the Mars orbit. Not to mention that Mars has minus 70 decree celcius, I think. So how could their 'human' survive in their first Mars human mission?
1. Starship plus the Super Heavy booster will soon be tested this year. The month @Hamartia Antidote may know. I believe just the Starship - not including the Super Heavy booster - has been tested before. Mars' gravity is less than Earth's. After the next test SpaceX may test Starship from some rocky ground on Earth to act as analogue to a suitable landing site on Mars. And then initial landings on Mars will be uncrewed.
2. Mars I believe is -60 celsius, not -70. But humans live in the Yakutsk area in -71 celsius in winter I think ( please watch the tour vid in this thread of mine ) so Yakutsk can serve as the training place for Mars crews.
