The billionaire says that if he doesn't successfully colonize Mars at some point in the next few years, you can blame Kamala Harris.

"These will be uncrewed to test the reliability of landing intact on Mars," Musk said in an X post.

"These will be uncrewed to test the reliability of landing intact on Mars," Musk said, adding if those landings go well, his space company will launch its first crewed flights to Mars in four years. "Flight rate will grow exponentially from there, with the goal of building a self-sustaining city in about 20 years," the billionaire said.

SpaceX founder Elon Musk says that the first of his company's Starship spacecraft will set off for Mars in two years and the first crewed missions will follow in 2028. He sees this as part of his plan to make humanity an interplanetary species.
