SpaceX founder and Tesla co-founder Elon Musk is not pinning his hopes on God\u2019s plan for a new Heaven and a new Earth.<\/p>\n
He is offering an astonishing and remarkably detailed Plan B: to escape the confines of Earth before the apocalypse arrives, colonize Mars, and eventually move out to other planets and stellar bodies in the far reaches of our solar system.<\/p>\n
Musk sees two paths diverging in the years ahead. \u201cHistory is going to bifurcate along two directions: One path is we stay on Earth forever, and then there will be some eventual extinction event\u2014I don\u2019t have an immediate doomsday prophecy\u2014but eventually \u2026 there will be some doomsday event,\u201d he declared.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe alternative is to become a space-faring civilization and a multi-planet species, which I hope you agree that is the right way to go.\u201d<\/p>\n
He delivered these remarks in a 63-minute talk, \u201cMaking Humans a Multi-planetary Species\u201d before the 67th International Astronautical Congress in Guadalajara, Mexico on September 27.<\/p>\n
From a secular perspective, it might be considered one of the most momentous talks in human history. The audience greeted Musk like a rock star, interrupting his remarks on numerous occasions with boisterous cheers as they began to grasp this daring plan for humanity\u2019s future.<\/p>\n
His plans are so detailed and so far along in the implementation, they cannot be dismissed as the wild musings of someone obsessed with sci-fi fantasy. No, Musk is well on his way to achieving his objective, bankrolled initially by contracts with NASA and his own billions.<\/p>\n
