Elon Musk Wants to Live in a City on Mars, Let’s Hope he Takes His Weirdo Fans With Him

Elon Musk has been vocal about wanting to fly a manned mission to Mars, but he doesn’t just want to land there, he wants to build a city there that he can personally live on. I think this is the best idea he’s ever had and I for one can’t wait to have him on a different planet.

Did you know that Earth and Mars can be up to 22 light minutes apart? That means Elon could send a tweet manipulating the price of a stock of a company he owns from Mars and we wouldn’t know about it for nearly half an hour.

The Associated Press published a piece on Musk’s space taxi that NASA is planning to use to transport astronauts to the ISS and his peers all mentioned how his real goal is to go to Mars, and for once I really, really hope he succeeds.

It would be super interesting to see how Elon’s flouting of safety regulations and plans for space slavery play out with his base of devoted fans who would be dumb enough to follow him to Mars. I’m guessing after about a year one of the domes built by his indentured space servants pops due to lack of oversight and he gets sucked out into space.

But hey, Elon has devoted his life to getting to Mars, and all I can say is Elon… don’t let the ozone layer hit you in the ass on the way out.
