SpaceX's Vision For The Future
SpaceX for Space Exploration Technologies was founded in 2002 by Elon Musk, which had just become a millionaire. It aims to create a private company in the field of space transportation, which he said would allow him to retire on Mars.
It considers that the most difficult to go live on Mars is not to live there, but to go there.
Thus over the years, he developed especially thanks to the acquisition of Russian technology, the Falcon launch vehicles and the Dragon capsule. The step was taken when the company landed a contract in 2008 with NASA that provides supplies to the ISS.
With its high capacity for innovation and its low construction costs, SpaceX quickly acquires a certain notoriety and makes a lot of attention.
But in the long term, SpaceX wants to become the largest shipping company in the solar system. What does that mean?
That means, that like what the shipping companies carrying the European settlers in America, SpaceX plans to send settlers on Mars or elsewhere.
The company is already working on it for many years, and is expected to unveil the MCT, Mars Colonial Transporter, which aims to carry passengers to destinations like Mars for a price of $ 500,000.
