Elon Musk on Mars Colonization: „Bunch of People Probably Will Die in the Beginning”

In a recent interview, the founder of SpaceX - Elon Musk - referred to the risks associated with the colonization of Mars. The billionaire admitted that for some people the mission will end tragically - and probably at the very beginning.

Billionaire Elon Musk recently gave an interview to Peter Diamandis, founder of the X Prize Foundation. One of the topics of the conversation was the colonization of Mars. SpaceX founder admitted that it will not be an easy task - participation in the mission will have to be paid for with various inconveniences, and some people will probably pay with their lives.

"You might die… and you probably won't have good food and all these things. It's an arduous and dangerous journey where you may not come back alive. (...) I mean, honestly, a bunch of people probably will die in the beginning," Musk stated, while adding that it will be an amazing adventure and a great experience.

We have to admit that similar claims probably won't make too many people abandon Earth for Mars, but on the other hand - it's probably worth appreciating the billionaire's honesty.
