I have debate whether a landing on Mars could be done by the private sphere . It run afoul with my very firm idea , conception , strong belief , that the first human existence to land on Mars should not come back to Earth . They should be the beginning of a progress - up of a colony / settlement , I call it a “ permanence . ” A settlement you may visit once or double , come back , and then settle you want to go down . Same with a dependency . But you want it to be lasting from the get - go , from the very first . I know that many citizenry do n’t finger that that should be done . Some multitude even regard it distinctly a suicide mission . Not me ! Not at all . Because we will plan , we will reconstruct from the moon of Mars , over a flow of 6 - 7 years , the landing place of different objects at the landing website that will be brought together to form a complete Mars habitat and research laboratory , similar to what has been done at the Moon .

There ’s not exactlya shortage of folks who are unforced to pass away on Mars , Elon Musk included , so the personnel department part of the architectural plan might not be too far - fetched . NASA seems to be a bittoo strapped for John Cash to pull it off , so peradventure Aldrin and Musk can team up on their programme to give people the hazard to crawl in on Big Red . The literal trick is stick them to build a dependency before they croak .

Humans will land on Mars by 2026 , says SpaceX Elon Musk
