LOL! Elon Musk changes course and admits the story about colonizing Mars was just BS

Now, after using SpaceX to take him out of his position in xAI at a huge valuation, Musk says what he REALLY wants is to colonize the moon! lmao

https://futurism.com/space/elon-musk-change-city-moon

Just over a year ago, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk made it abundantly clear he was not interested in visiting the Moon.

In January 2025, the height of his bromance with president Donald Trump, he tweeted that the “Moon is a distraction,” asserting instead that “we’re going straight to Mars.”

He has lambasted NASA’s efforts to return to the lunar surface, accusing its Artemis program of being “extremely inefficient as it is a jobs-maximizing program, not a results-maximizing program.”

For many years now, Musk has made it his number one goal to establish a city on Mars, using 1,000 of the company’s Starship rockets in an interstellar colonization effort that was supposed to kick off back in 2024.

Having completely missed that goal, the mercurial entrepreneur appears to have had a major change of heart, contradicting his earlier statements by arguing that the plan is now to go to the Moon and build a city there after all.

Musk's investors a2m Musk, laughing at their continued gullibility

He also promised 1 million autonomous robotaxis on the road by 2020.  For those who haven’t figured it out yet… he’s the world’s greatest stock huckster.

I was reliably assured that every prediction Elon made has come true...

Elon Musk is almost certainly bipolar and suffers from hypomania often.

I wondered if you can breathe the atmosphere on Mars and it's just the wrong gasses? But no there's hardly any atmosphere, and no feasible way of creating an atmosphere.

^This.

I heard one of those rocket CEOs in a YT vid saying they would have to bring nuclear reactors in order to have the infrastructure needed to create a living atmosphere even in a small building like the Biodome. But they would still need to find a way to bring water there for the oxygen source.

It's just not feasible. And even if they found some way to do it, it would be limited to a small Biodome-type building. There would still be problems with the lack of gravity.

Last of all, the CEO said it's not feasible to bring anyone back. Even with an atomic reactor they couldn't create enough rocket fuel to get a ship off the surface.

Of course Musk knew this all along, and was laughing the whole time at the people who believed him. lol

Elon Musk is the richest man in the world, by far, and nobody else is even close.

Mars is red.   There's oxygen all around.

All of the surface rocks on Mars are oxides just like on the Earth.  The most obvious ones are the iron oxides that make a red colors.  It's totally possible to get the oxygen back out of these oxides, though I suppose not as easily as water.  In any case, there is water on Mars.
