“When you haven’t heard someone talk for four years, the thought that they might be able to talk again was mind blowing."

Elon Musk: "The goal of SpaceX is to make life multiplanetary in order to extend the probable lifespan of consciousness That's been the goal from the beginning; you can see videos of me talking about this 20 years ago We need to transport a lot of people and equipment to Mars. If we're able to do so, then we will get past the Fermi filter of being a single-planet civilization, which is a precarious situation. If we're a multiplanet civilization, the probable lifespan of civilization is much greater "Once we're a multiplanet civilization", we can then extend beyond our solar system and try to go to other star systems Get out there and explore the galaxy. Perhaps we'll find many long-dead one-planet civilizations out there among the stars For me, I'm motivated by curiosity about the nature of the universe Where are the aliens? Are there aliens? Where do universes come from? How do they end? Are we in the multiverse? what are the right questions to ask?"
