When you think of Musk, what comes to mind first? I believe that many people will say Tesla Motors, Tesla Cars do bring great convenience to human travel, and Tesla Cars break the concept of human beings on traditional cars, the future with the progress of human technology, electric vehicles will tend to be bigger and bigger, but Musk in addition to manufacturing cars, he has many other industries, aviation is his important industry, on April 8, 2022 at 11:17 a.m., the five-handed rocket Falcon 9 was successfully launched. Three tourists embarked on their 8-day space trip, and it is worth mentioning that none of the flight was active professional astronauts, and the tourists only paid $55 million (equivalent to 350 million yuan) to achieve space tourism.
Space tourism has always been a dream of human beings, from the human out of the earth, human beings are full of curiosity about the universe, human beings want to explore the boundaries of the universe, want to explore alien life, but also want to personally go out of the earth to see the real look of the universe, in order to explore the mysteries of the universe, human beings in the universe to establish a space station, but before the space station has been a professional astronaut can reach the place, and the launch of the Falcon 9 means that the International Space Station ushered in private, commercial tourism, And this space trip will also be recorded in history by mankind, which is the first time that human beings have completed a space mission in an all-private manned spacecraft.
I have to say that Musk's scientific and technological vision is indeed admirable, and Musk is a very dreamy entrepreneur, this time the Falcon 9 let mankind see the future development direction, that is, to explore space, in fact, according to the original plan, this space exploration period should be 10 days, of which 8 days on the space station, in the space station of these 8 days, they will participate in various experiments with astronauts, experiments include life sciences, physical sciences, chemistry and other projects, in this space tourism, The main person in charge is NASA's retired astronaut Mike Lopez-Alegria, who has spent 258 days in space and is very experienced in space.
The first space traveler is The Canadian Mark Pathy, who was once a philanthropist, and now he has established the second Canadian person to go into space, the second is the American real estate tycoon Larry Connor, the traveler is older, 71 years old, but he likes adventure, likes exciting sports, so this time he also chose to explore tourism, the last is the Israeli businessman, his name is Eytan Stibbe, he is in addition to being an entrepreneur, He is also a former Israeli fighter pilot, and can be said to have a lot of flying experience. The space travel of several of them will become an important teaching material for human beings to explore the universe in the future.
Once we thought that space tourism is very far away from us, now see, space travel has been getting closer and closer to us, but all this is thanks to Musk, Musk is not only an entrepreneur, he is also an explorer, Musk once said that he will achieve the Mars immigration plan by 2050, and to build his own factory on Mars, for this plan, he also did a lot of preparations, Musk is not only tesla's boss, he has many companies, SpaceX, for example, is a company that studies spacecraft, and the spacecraft developed by this company is equipped with 37 of the latest Raptor engines, which are quite powerful.
In addition to this company, he has many other companies, such as SolarceX (Sun City), Starlink (satellite interconnection company), TheBoring Company (a company that solves traffic congestion), Hyperloop (Hyperloop company), OpenAl (artificial intelligence), Fyture of life institute (Life Future Institute), etc., from the names of these companies we can see, These companies are basically preparing for space exploration, and now that more than 20 years before 2050, can Musk's Mars colonization program succeed? For Mars, I believe many people know that Mars is the fourth planet located in the solar system, compared to other planets, the environment of Mars is already the best.
However, after the exploration of Mars by scientists, it was found that Mars has no atmosphere and magnetic field, because Mars does not have the protection of the atmosphere, so the Martian ground will be directly exposed to the sun's ultraviolet rays and cosmic radiation, which is fatal to living things, and the fundamental reason why Mars does not have an atmosphere is that Mars has no magnetic field, take our earth, the earth has a strong magnetic field, the magnetic field can firmly grasp the atmosphere is not blown away by the solar wind, the atmosphere can resist all kinds of radiation in the universe, and because of this, Life on Earth can only continue to develop, and without the protection of the atmosphere and magnetic field, then life will soon die.
Therefore, if you want to immigrate to Mars, the first thing to transform is the Martian magnetic field and atmosphere, although it sounds relatively simple, but it is not an easy task to modify the magnetic field and atmosphere of a planet, not to mention how does human technology now make Mars have an atmosphere? In this regard, Musk believes that 10,000 nuclear bombs can be used to bombard the poles of Mars, which will produce a large amount of carbon dioxide, so that the concentration of the Martian atmosphere will increase, resulting in an atmosphere, but scientists say that this practice can only increase the atmospheric density of Mars a little, and it is difficult to rely on human strength to rely on human strength to have the same thick atmosphere as The Earth.
But everything is not absolute, although Musk's plan looks very far away, but Musk is moving towards this plan, in another 20 years, maybe human technology has become very powerful, then we really colonize Mars is also possible, but again, Musk's space travel may be realized earlier, at present, the United States has signed a plan with many commercial companies to build a space station, they plan to build a space station with a size of 830 cubic meters, can accommodate 10 people, The space station is expected to start operations in 2023, and if the commercial space station can be successfully completed, then human beings can truly achieve space travel.
And this is only the first step for human beings to achieve space travel, in the future with the development of human technology, we will also establish bases on other planets, so that we can travel to and from other planets, to achieve the real space travel and interstellar migration plan, although it is not yet known when human beings will be able to achieve such a dream, but Xiaobian believes that human beings as the most intelligent life on the earth, the future with the development of human technology, human beings will be able to achieve their dreams, what do you think about this?
