Man, I’m SO glad newspapers don’t tell the whole world whenever I say something stupid. That would be really embarrassing.
Let’s send the billionaires first so they can show us!
First Katy Perry and all the Kardashians.
Putting a million people in space would require ten of thousand of launches if they were Boeing 737s carrying the people.
Housing a million people in space would require technology that won’t exist in 20 years let alone in time to have it built in 20 years.
This kind of shit is just so fucking stupid.
It takes them 2 years to build an Amazon warehouse in fucking Michigan. We’re supposed to believe they’re going to build space stations to support a million people in 20 years?
Who is this stupid? Who believes this shit?
Honestly it will be lucky if we have anyone permanently inhabiting the moon in 20 years. The Artemis program is our best bet and frankly that’s a pipe dream.
Lead by example, Jeff.
If that guys in charge, I would assume those millions are being forced to work in ‘Mars in Total Recall’ conditions. Basically slave labor in abhorrent conditions with food/air being withheld when you don’t slave away hard enough.
Start the reactor, Quaid!
when will we just tell these people to shut the fuck up and that we don’t care what they think? I’ve never heard a tech billionaire say anything remotely smart for decades now.
Communication with these parasites is one-directional. They spew garbage and we get rained on.
Nope
Not happening, and not even close.
We still don’t have a first moon base, and no idea how to even build one that’ll last.
First you’ll need a proof of concept base, it’ll take you a good decade to get that done
Then, millions? Any idea how many tickets that is?
The richer, the dumber
Ketamine is a great drug.
But Musk’s disciples believe we will one day be walking around on planets and moons with no air, and temperatures 100x more extreme than parts of earth no one can live in.
These are simple people, the common clay of the new space…
…you know, morons.
And on top of all this does he think we just send astronauts up to space to live in the ISS for extended periods of time all willy nilly? Or hell just sending people to the moon, that was just “ok, you’re going to to the moon tomorrow, pack your bags” no. It takes months if not years of training to get someone used to living in zero g for extended periods of time. Us silly meatbags need something called gravity to live. You can’t just shoot someone out into space and say “have at it”. So whose going to train these millions of people? There’s no artificial gravity spinny things on ships to do that. there’s hardly any on the moon.
And then what if these people want to go back to Earth for a visit? it wouldn’t work. Look at Astronauts who have been on the ISS for an extended period of time when they come back. They can’t walk, they look like they’re going to pass out. So everytime these millions of people decide to return for a visit they also have to spend time getting help to get used to being on Earth again? no way, that’s not happening. You would literally have to set up some sort of hospitals specifically for this and then train and hire a massive amount of people who deal only with getting people used to dealing with gravity again. 2045? be real jeffy boy.
I mean again the people who are floating around in space right now are specifically selected and are in peak physical condition. The ONLY way it would maybe work is if we managed to develop a form of artifical gravity and right now that’s science fiction. OR you set up a colony on Mars and right now that’s a one way trip. and I’ve seen/read/played a lot of media where one way mars colony trips never work out well in the long run.
Plus there’s a massive Dragon on Mars…
Yea, maybe they should show we can grow food and mone water ice on a large enough scale first. But, millions even in 50 years seems unlikley given the pace things have gone.
How has such an idiot talker been able to accumulate such indecent amount of resources?
Highly doubt many will live there, if anything it will have a couple of research stations like Anctartica .
When you shit money like diarrhea, saying stupid shit becomes common place.
Oh is he going to build a space elevator or something?
Even if we had cheap safe reliable rocket launchers (Which I think SpaceX is fairly adequately demonstrated that we do not have) millions of people wouldn’t be living on the moon in 20 years. It took decades after the invention of the jetliner before millions of people were doing transatlantic flights, and as unpleasant as Florida can be, it’s a lot more survivable than the moon (probably).
These idiots say so much crap, why are we reporting on it?
Doubt
Jeffy watches too much science fiction where at some point in history, massive rockets to space became free and people stopped breathing oxygen.
That’s 20 years and utterly ridiculous
I ain’t going…
