Elon Musk SpaceX: Multiplanetary Species

The famous tech CEO and billionaire believe that people are meant to be multi-planetary species that can venture and prosper from one planet or space location to another. Musk greatly believes that SpaceX can bring one of the first vehicles in the world to transport humans safely from the home planet to the likes of Mars and other nearby systems.

Musk asks the public for their support in helping make humanity a multi-planetary species, with SpaceX as its top sponsor or benefactor for this venture.

With SpaceX, the public will have a chance to have a vessel for this aspiration, and the people will need to show their willingness to the cause for it to push through different regulations or laws.

Together, SpaceX and the people will make the dream of Elon Musk come true and bring the first humans to another planet. The Mars mission is not far from reality as they developed the spacecraft already, with the stainless steel Starship only awaiting its signal for its orbital flight tests.

Nevertheless, after the round of tests by the company, it would soon hold its uncrewed flight towards Mars.
