The [tunnel’s] accelerants cure the grout that seals the tunnel’s concrete supports, helping the grout set properly and protecting the work against cracks and other deterioration. They also seriously burn exposed human skin. At the Encore dig site, such burns became almost routine, workers there told Nevada’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration. An investigation by the state OSHA, which Bloomberg Businessweek has obtained via a freedom of information request, describes workers being scarred permanently on their arms and legs. According to the investigation, at least one employee took a direct hit to the face. In an interview with Businessweek, one of the tunnel workers recalls the feeling of exposure to the chemicals: “You’d be like, ‘Why am I on fire?’”
You have to look at the bigger picture: Musk’s “I know how to build a colony on Mars better than anyone!”
That requires:
indentured labourvolunteers willing to work for the privilege (tons of applicants already)There are some other details missing, and maybe there are other projects I’m not aware of, but the general plan is pretty clear.
Imagine the roaming costs on Mars… one liners is all most will be able to aff [message too long]
Solar Roof
Good point, although I think they’re planning something nuclear powered, like for the Moon.
He thinks he knows how to build a colony on Mars better than anyone. He hasn’t considered that maybe there are good reasons why it hasn’t been done yet. His first colony will be a death trap.
He’s planning it mostly as a one-way trip, sort of a “live the rest of your life taming the wilderness” pitch. It isn’t all that different from the colonizing that went on Earth, and even the casualties might not be much higher.
A rocket is just a truck. A fleet of trucks don’t build or make possible whatever we dream them to carry.
A giant truck doesn’t meet all demands. Starlink is just the Internet and does not count towards the existing, now saturated “market”.

Neurolink was an existing company, it’s founder quit in shame after they faked/stole existing research. His own professor, the leading expert in the field, declared it all bunk with the metaphor “Elon Musk couldn’t find a brain of he tried”.

Musk is a sociopath hijacking reality so real issues are ignored.
Sorry, but that’s too many ragebait videos, and I’m not going to debunk them one by one.
Neuralink has been FDA approved for human trials, and had its first subject implanted in January 2024. Whether it’s going to end up in “death from uncontrollable vomiting”, remains to be seen.
A businessman. 🤷
How would people on Mars even claim their rights? I never heard a country recognize their own jurisdiction on Mars.
If Musk enslaves these people, not return them to earth, etc., how can they stop that from Mars?
Poorly. There would have to be a revolution after a generation or two, might take longer.
