Yeah I will stay here as well for not but look at it this way. Every two years there is a launch window and a return window. So let's say it takes 3 months to get there with this system and 3 months to get back. That is 6 months in transit and 1.5 years on the surface of Mars. A person could do it as a trip that would last 2 years of their life but have the option to return. When you think of it like that it seems a lot more appealing. Because then you aren't going to live out your life there forever.

That does make more sense when you put it that way. What is the plan to do out there? Make fuel for the return trips to Earth and grow/build things?

Some people will just want to go to have the experience and then there would be a ton of people that would want to go to earn more money than they would here. Think about it this way. Let's pretend SpaceX get's really successful and then has a ton of investment capital. Let's say they end up allowing people to have a free trip and get paid $200,000 / year to commit for 4 years. So sort of like a military commitment. People would go. The more people that go then there would be other industries that would want to be there to service them. Think of it like an oil field up in some remote area where people come because the money is good. It think that will be sort of how this will be. And I'm sure there will be flight attendant type people on the ships to help out as everyone travels in both directions. He was saying in the video that eventually they think they could get the flight time down to 1 month which would be interesting. It is a ways off for sure. Maybe 25 or 30 years possibly but people will want to go for the adventure of it all I feel.

I'd go if Matt Damon went back too.

Hahah, what if he is mean in real life?

FWIW I liked the format of your article better than winchesters. I just made a post on Enceladus if you want to check it out, been trying my darndest to do well here. :D

Thank you for the positive support. I think it was coinidental that he posted his 3 hours after mine but I don't really like the fact that there is such a spread on the payout. Even if we say the post were equal but different it really shows you it isn't having good content that really gets rewarded here. I'm trying like hell as well to do well here and if I could make $100 / day I could survive focusing on this full time. But things have gotten far below that recently unfortunately. I will check your post out! Thanks for commenting.
