The Space X CEO added, “I’m not going to ask any venture capitalists for money. I realize that it makes no sense as an investment.”
Musk’s statement is coming after Eric Abbenante, Comedian, Filmmaker Documentarian, tweeted: “Neil Degrasse Tyson criticizes Elon’s plan to go to Mars:
Maher: “Can Elon Musk realistically send humans to Mars?”
NDT: “I have strong views on that:
For him just say ‘Let’s go to Mars because it’s the next thing to do.’
What does that venture capitalist meeting look like?:
Elon what do you want to do?
‘Go to Mars’
How much will it cost?
‘1 trillion dollars’
What’s the return on investment?
‘Nothing’
That’s a 5 minute meeting.”
Thank you guy who plays scientist on TV.”
Elon Musk quoted Eric Abbenante’s tweet and commented: “Wow, they really don’t get it.
Mars is critical to the long-term survival of consciousness.
Also, I’m not going to ask any venture capitalists for money. I realize that it makes no sense as an investment. That’s why I’m gathering resources.”
