The dream of human beings landing on Mars may be realized in 5 years.

On the evening of December 29, Musk said in an interview that spaceX can send humans to Mars in the fastest 5 years and 10 years at the latest.

There have been many different answers about when SpaceX will send humans to Mars. In March, Musk said SpaceX would land its Starship rocket on Mars by 2030. Previously, experts said that if SpaceX's progress is not smooth enough in the three remaining launch opportunities before 2026, it may take longer to land on Mars.

Musk's ultimate plan is to build 1,000 Starship rockets that launch 3 a day and eventually send 1 million people to Mars.
