(cont'd from yesterday's post)
"Fundamentally, the future is vastly more exciting and interesting if we're a multi-planet species than if we are not. You want to be inspired by things. You want to wake up in the morning and think, things are going to be great. It's about believing in the future, that the future will be better than the past. And I can't think of anything more exciting than going out there and being among the stars," Elon Musk speaking at the International Astronautical Congress a week ago
Decades ago, NASA was making dreams come true. Not so much anymore. Today, the inspiration comes from Elon. He inspires because he actually believes we can go to Mars, and because he (and his company SpaceX) are going to figure it out - and do it.
(cont'd tomorrow - Elon explains how they're going to get this done)
