So Elon says "1M on Mars in 20 years, maybe 30"

Starship can take 100 people - so 10,000 flights to take 1M, plus 10 flights to refuel it to fly to Mars. So, 100,000 flights in 20 years. 5000 launches a year. 13 launches a day, every day - if using Starship. Plus additional launches for resources.

If you're someone who attended my 2016 Spirits of Place event in Liverpool, or who enjoyed the SoP book I put together for @dailygrail.bsky.social soon after, you might be interested to know that I'm currently having meetings about a new SoP event. October 2024. Birkenhead. More details soon.
