Elon Musk currently targets late 2026 for the first uncrewed flights of the SpaceX Starship to Mars, followed by crewed missions two to four years later. Over the years, these ambitious targets have been adjusted multiple times as development and launch testing progress.  A timeline of his evolving Mars targets includes:2016: Musk first proposed landing an uncrewed variant of the Dragon capsule on Mars by 2018, with crewed flights planned for 2024.2017: He shifted the target, aiming to send the newly conceived Starship to Mars by 2022, paving the way for the first humans to land by 2024.2020-2022: He revised the initial uncrewed target dates to 2024 and later 2026 to allow more time for Starship development and orbital refueling tests.2024–2026 Updates: Musk outlined a phased step-by-step approach. The uncrewed Starships are scheduled to launch during the 2026/2027 Earth-Mars transfer window. If the uncrewed landings are successful, he aims to send humans in 2028 or 2029.

I'd bet against Musk sending a rocket to Mars later this year.  Starship is a work in progress.  There's no real reason for him to send a mission to Mars, it's just looks good for the IPO hype.
