Elon Musk Unveils Starship's Mars Mission : Humans On Mars By 2029 ?

Elon Musk has revealed that SpaceX's Starship will have a mission to Mars by the end of 2026 with Tesla's humanoid robot Optimus on board. The uncrewed mission represents a major move towards Musk's dream of settling Mars. Successful completion of the mission could pave the way for human landings as early as 2029, though 2031 seems more probable. Starship, the biggest and strongest rocket in the world, first needs to prove itself in crewed flights as reliable and safe. NASA also waits for a variant of Starship for its lunar Artemis mission. SpaceX is not giving up on its plans to colonize Mars despite recent test flight failures.
