Tourists On Mars For Only $500,000 By Space X
Elon Musk, the Space X CEO, is convinced that in another 20 years or so the commercial travels to Mars would be not only possible but pretty affordable, costing as low as half a million dollars per person. To materialize this, he plans to create a re-usable space craft which will bring down the cost of orbit and over the orbit travel just to the cost of propellant. Per pound cost to orbit should equal to just $10-20. Till that happens all average people dreaming to become Mars tourists have enough time to save the necessary $500,000, as for now the Space X Falcone 9 rocket is hoping to crack the $1,000 per pound cost.
