Life on Mars

from Truman’s Matrix · host Andi and Brian Hale

Elon Musk wants to go to Mars and he wants your help. Even as one of the richest humans in exsistence, he doesn’t have the money to build what he believes is entirely possible . . . a livable colony on Mars! Welcome to Truman’s Matrix! We are not going to explore if we think that’s even possible or not. After all, NASA doesn’t believe so. In fact, did you know NASA does not believe we could put a man on the moon currently? Weird, huh? Nope, we’ve discussed all that on other podcasts... In the 1950s, German-turned-American scientist Wernher von Braun (yes, the Nazis’ leading rocket man), wrote a science fiction novel called The Mars Project. It takes place in then-distant 1980 and features human colonists on Mars whose leader uses the title “Elon.” As in… SpaceX billionaire and guy who wants us to get us to Mars?
