Business, Economics, Space, Technology and Society Elon To Mars September 26, 2016 Rand Simberg 4 Comments What we know about the plans, and what we don’t. Presumably, we’ll know more tomorrow.

Transportation is always only a small part of an overall plan for settlement, particularly on other planets.
