a record $314.17 billion” (Tuttle). The article points to private companies for the cheapest space exploration missions of our time. One such company, SpaceX, Tuttle claims, “has managed to offer private enterprise and government organizations some of the lowest launch prices in the industry”. It’s been shared that Elon Musk, the founder of SpaceX, has planned the company 's course towards manned space travel, and certainly in the direction of interplanetary mobilization to Mars.

Exploration of the Space “Space, the final frontier” is a popular phrase from the television show Star Trek. However, even though this show is fictional, the idea of space exploration is truly real. It may be interpreted in different ways, such as, a need for human exploration or the next destination for human expansion. For centuries, the stars have mystified people all around the world, and it was not until recently that exploration began. Within the last one hundred years, man not only…

contracts to the private sector so that America has a healthy space program that is capable of safely driving down costs for the consumer, while maintaining the integrity of NASAs’ primary goal which is the development of technology and science. SpaceX is one of the biggest players in the aerospace private sector and they have developed a plan to stay that way. In September 2016 Elon Musk announced his companies plan to colonize Mars by 2030. The companies plan is revolved around his freshly…

Some refer to him as the “Steve Jobs of heavy industry”, very serious about sending manned missions to Mars one day soon.
