Make it a one way trip for him please..
Also, he's not allowed to take his money and assets with him, leave and disperse those assets for the rest of the people here.
He can go dig for his own gold and shit and establish his own worthless economy on his dead rock if he wants, assuming he would even survive...
Mom I want a planet to destroy. We have a perfectly good planet to destroy at home. The planet we have at home:
His father probably asked him "why just limit yourself to just one?" I mean... he's racked up the offspring, so why not destroy every possible option of a place for them to live?
Most of his offspring fucking hate him.
and no communication devices, cameras or things like that. I don't want to hear from him again.
Can we blow up the ship halfway and call it an oopsie?
Or just land it several thousand kph faster than planned.
Show kph but use mph might do the trick
As I understand it, There's no way with current technology for a trip to Mars to be a round trip thing really. It's a one and done.
Mars colonization was intended for the first settlers to settle. Not return.
Technically we totally could, if you can ship 1 kilogram to mars you can ship a spaceship to mars capable of getting back with enough un-manned trips in advance. Economically feasable however it is not.
it's even really difficult technically, because you have to keep the propellant cool on the surface of mars while you stay there, which is really difficult. in outer space, it's possible because there's only sunlight as a heat source, and if you create a shadow, then it's chilly as fuck, but on the planet surface, winds will carry heat to the fuel deposit and eventually warm it up, and cooling that amount of propellant is expensive (energy-wise) as fuck.
Ferry stage in orbit and solid fuel first stage? Could probably get away with it in martian gravity.
The money is of no use on Mars, and billionaires can't relocate many of their assets anyway
Let "it" take the money along, it will be of no use there and won't be available on the market here, if anything, it might counter inflation for a week or two to remove it from Earth.
Looking at progress of his rocket launch, the trip would end early.
Let me introduce you to a show called, For All Mankind. It's on Apple TV here in Europe, not sure about the rest of the world.
Spoiler: you get exactly your wish.
He famously claimed that you could give Mars an atmosphere and terraform it with nukes. He should try that once he gets there.
That's a take
