Its funny how that backfired on the interviewer. They thought it would be a funny topic but then Elon got all techinical and decided to take them to school HAHAHAHAHA
I don't really see that it backfired. It's a question that should be asked and an answer that should be elaborated on. The point of these kind of conventions is to hear wordy answers and perspectives from great minds
Let’s be real If aliens could travel from even the closest known inhabitable planet in a reasonable amount of time then they by far have weaponry that could evaporate earth, likely mostly for defense purposes only otherwise we would’ve been vapor by now.

@Dave Not true, although there is a correlation. Not being able to translate a language does not mean you don't have 100% grasp. It means you don't know the language you want to translate it to. You have to think deeper than just finding words to replace jargon.

Also the gravity on Mars is like 1/3 of the Earth , and whit the solar wind ,and the total absence of a magnetic field (strong like the one we have us ) the few ammount of wather release in the atmosphere, will be disperse in cosmic void.

@@astranc That is assuming the atmosphere was lost in the first place, and not simply established and maintained as is. I am definitely curious what all he could say in an extended interview. Elon definitely peaks my interest.
Solar Winds blew away most of Mars' magnetofield and thus it became too weak to hold its Earth like atmosphere. This was before Earth had even grown life.
NASA has shown that melting all the frozen CO2 on Mars would get us to just 1% of the way to a workable atmospheric pressure and they rule out nuclear fusion or nukes as viable options
the interviewer should have asked the very simple question "and how do you plan on generating a controlled, long lasting, massive fusion reaction on Mars to heat up the whole planet until you have sufficient CO2 in the atmosphere?".
You can't have any atmosphere. The entire planet only has enough gaseous elements left to create 50-100 mbar of atmosphere in total - and if you try using it all, you have no oxygen, carbonate or water left to bind to rock. You would have to bombard the planet with thousands of ice asteroids every year for hundreds of years.
I agree, but all his ideas to do these things are not his original ideas. He is just the brave man who says 'we are going to do these things' and find away to do them in a way that is economically viable. Most people who have these ideas do not have the money to do them, and the people who do have the money would not risk their money at such a great risk. Businessmen do not generally give a shit about the greater good of mankind, all they care about is how wealthy they will be in their own life time. Elon Musk does care, and he seems to be paving the way to prove that you can do good things for humankind and make a profit. That is were Elon Musk is a genius, its not just his scientific or engineering knowledge, because there are people around the world who are far better at both. But it is the whole package of being a scientist, an engineer and a big Businessmen that makes him unique, and I also really do think he would still do all of what he does if he didn't get paid as much as what he does.
I guess once upon a time earth was like mars, dinosaurs got overgrown due to its pre existing athmosphere and natural gasses, possibly they got extinct coz they got nuked or due to redirected celestial objects, well that could be also a possible solution
Yeah, Earth and Mars used to be in opposite positions as we're both in the Goldilocks Zone. Earth got hit with meteorites filled with ice and it slowly transformed. Mars was a world similar to Earth, but got its atmosphere blasted away and over time turned red and dead.

Not really, the idea could work but it is all about time-frame, and in this case the resource cost and time-frame is to high, so high in fact, that humans are likely to be extinct by the time we are able to terraform mars. It actually happens to be a reoccurring theme with most of Musk's ideas, give or take a few (Tesla, SpaceX etc.), he always seems to come up with ideas that could work, are "cool" and revolutionary but would simply take to long to actually finish and the return wouldn't be great enough to justify the time commitment.
Would his idea help to stimulate the core in to life though ? Without one their would be no magnetosphere and we would need to be in domes etc permanently and I can see issues with that like meteors and lethal radiation ☢️
Instead of Mars, why he doesn't make deserts habitable area, there is lots of surface there, many people can live there ( if there are the conditions).
Over 10000+ years. We'd need at most a hundred to begin forming an oxygen and nitrogen based atmosphere, and by then we should have the capacity to restart the core.
@@sandiknows6075 As a boy with stutter myself..I don't think I said it because he's worth millions. People don't appreciate us much and make us feel insignificant when we take a bit too log to come up with the word or say it correctly
Well, yes. It’s own gravity keeps it mostly together, but there’s no reason it wouldn’t form a sphere. It’s not like an explosion on the surface of Earth where it’s under the influence of gravity
No planet or star is 'perfectly' round, they're mostly round because of the gravity in the center, or close to it. But yeah, the Sun is a constant atomic explosion happening every second.
Sure it will. But does anyone have an idea how long this takes? If it´s decades, then life on mars won´t be sustainable. If it takes a couple millenia, that´s many generations of humans and thus basically an eternity. It may take a million years, who knows. That is still a short time compared to how old mars is - and yet there is still a lot of atmosphere left if you compare it to lets say the moon rather than earth or venus. Seriously. If someone as a good estimate and a valid source for how long a freshly created atmosphere on mars would last, I really would like to know it!
@Asingamaanda Makhuvha Why would you say this? You are insulting me and don´t even give a reason. That is unneccessarily rude. And what is dumb about a question of timeline? If mankind someoe creates an atmosphere on mars and it will hold a hundred thousand years, than that is a timescale, where you could consider it sustainable - kind of. You are allowed to disagree - but that does not give you the right to call me dumb.
@@andreaspeters8602 dont mind him people sometimes are very rude. I think from what I understand elon's plan will probably take more than 100 years. According to some scientists it could even backfire and start a phenomenon knows as ''nuclear winter". Look it up
@@tremendeouschamp2845 Thank you for being nice! I actually know quite some things about terraforming - for a non-professional, like most scify concepts and a few physics articles. About mirrors in mars orbit - ordinary to generally increase the amount of sunlight or convex to eaporate the ground, about super greenhouse gasses, about underground nukes in the polar regions, moholes (rather a concept for the further future) and of course I know wha nuclear winter is - altough this vidoe was the first time someone mentioned it in connection with mars. I know the major drawbacks of terraformation are dirt and nitrogen and that you just cannot produce gravity. And absolutely noone know how man does react to mars gravity. Earth gravity is good, microgravity is bad, mars gravity could be either - or anything between. I even once read an article about the econmic aspects of terraformation. People often compare it with the settlement of the americas, but that comparison has a lot of flaws. When people settled in america, they had earth, water and air and pretty much everything they needed. On mars, you have to import everything for a long while before ou become self sufficient. A better comparison is he panama channel. It is a large investment in the future and the greatest profitors may not be the investors but all our grandchildren. In view of terraformation, venus is the way more promising planet to create another earth, but at venus, we are not remotely close to develop the technology needed to terraform this hellish place. People however can develop it from what they learn on mars. That was a lot of unrelated information and I can write ten pages more if anyone asks, but for now: thank you again for cheering me up. I needed that.
@@andreaspeters8602 yes you are right that,Mars terraformation is pretty hard concept due to gravity. If it was not for gravity. Teraformation would have been much easier. I think we should first try to colonize Mars then we will be able to make Co2 plants on the planet that will be our first step towards terraformation. I personally think terraforming would not be possible for 1000 years for now. We can try it but the world right now has so many problems. Like the Gaza Israel problem is increasing very fast. Many people are still there who think NASA is a lying about moon landing, I dont think they accept that terraformation is real. We should concentrate on sending humans on Mars and creating sustainable base there, since the idea to colonize Mars came because of three things Research Curiosity And most important survival of spieces I understand you respect you These was my opinion. Correct me if I said anything wrong. Sry for my bad English. Thank you🙏
Eventually there will be, nothing we can do about it. It's all a matter of when nemesis comes through again. It comes in like a wrecking ball, pulling astroids and debris from the astroid belt on it's way, and rains hell on the solor system.
He wrong about the "new safer reactors". He's talking about MSR's. Edit: They aren't new. They have been around since the 60's. And they weren't very good at making weapons grade nuclear materials.
Do we even have enough resources for these missions? thousands of test 100 failed flights is gonna be there Probability of survival of astronomers will br so less. Man idk why can't we just live on earth for as long as it is habitable. And use resources wisely without degrading environment further more. Analyzing theory 100 times before using real life resources to build something big so chances of failing is less being patient is the key 💙

He has many valid points
Nah. Only without the numbers.
Not really, the idea could work but it is all about time-frame, and in this case the resource cost and time-frame is to high, so high in fact, that humans are likely to be extinct by the time we are able to terraform mars. It actually happens to be a reoccurring theme with most of Musk's ideas, give or take a few (Tesla, SpaceX etc.), he always seems to come up with ideas that could work, are "cool" and revolutionary but would simply take to long to actually finish and the return wouldn't be great enough to justify the time commitment.
Elon + Vitalik Buterin = Universe
Would his idea help to stimulate the core in to life though ? Without one their would be no magnetosphere and we would need to be in domes etc permanently and I can see issues with that like meteors and lethal radiation ☢️
A stronger and denser atmo like Earth would take care of meteorites and radiation in one. Nuking the caps would be the expedited way to heat Mars.
Do u think the radiation would travel throughout the planet or more so located at the poles because that’s the sight of the explosion?
Unless we can create a magnetic field around Mars "life as we know it" won't happen
Solar Energy? Oh, but then there's entropy - "You thought the devil was bad," - Elon Musk
“You can’t just shoot a hole into the surface of Mars!!!!”
Hahha 😂 you can

Instead of Mars, why he doesn't make deserts habitable area, there is lots of surface there, many people can live there ( if there are the conditions).
but it won't stay warm, it will just cool back down
Over 10000+ years. We'd need at most a hundred to begin forming an oxygen and nitrogen based atmosphere, and by then we should have the capacity to restart the core.
Elon's stutter is so cute.
You only say that because he is worth billions
@@sandiknows6075 As a boy with stutter myself..I don't think I said it because he's worth millions. People don't appreciate us much and make us feel insignificant when we take a bit too log to come up with the word or say it correctly
Nigga literally said that * we should become multi planet species* 🔥🔥👽

Can you imagine the first iguana that gets to go to mars :)
He's trying to melt the ice and get the thin atmosphere going and thicken up. It's not a stupid idea at all but rather quite the opposite.
"The Sun is nuclear explosion.ongoing nuclear explosion"
Me: and that exposion makes the Sun perfectly ROUND?
Listen to what he said again
Well, yes. It’s own gravity keeps it mostly together, but there’s no reason it wouldn’t form a sphere. It’s not like an explosion on the surface of Earth where it’s under the influence of gravity
🤣🤣🤣
Congrats, that's one of the dumbest comments which I read in my life.
No planet or star is 'perfectly' round, they're mostly round because of the gravity in the center, or close to it. But yeah, the Sun is a constant atomic explosion happening every second.
I hope he realises those must be some HUGE fucking bombs to have any considerable effect on Mars.
Even if Mars is "warmed" the gases released at the polar caps will escape Mar's atmosphere due to weaker gravity of Mars.
Sure it will. But does anyone have an idea how long this takes? If it´s decades, then life on mars won´t be sustainable. If it takes a couple millenia, that´s many generations of humans and thus basically an eternity. It may take a million years, who knows. That is still a short time compared to how old mars is - and yet there is still a lot of atmosphere left if you compare it to lets say the moon rather than earth or venus.
Seriously. If someone as a good estimate and a valid source for how long a freshly created atmosphere on mars would last, I really would like to know it!
@Asingamaanda Makhuvha Why would you say this? You are insulting me and don´t even give a reason. That is unneccessarily rude. And what is dumb about a question of timeline? If mankind someoe creates an atmosphere on mars and it will hold a hundred thousand years, than that is a timescale, where you could consider it sustainable - kind of. You are allowed to disagree - but that does not give you the right to call me dumb.
@@andreaspeters8602 dont mind him people sometimes are very rude. I think from what I understand elon's plan will probably take more than 100 years. According to some scientists it could even backfire and start a phenomenon knows as ''nuclear winter". Look it up
@@tremendeouschamp2845 Thank you for being nice! I actually know quite some things about terraforming - for a non-professional, like most scify concepts and a few physics articles. About mirrors in mars orbit - ordinary to generally increase the amount of sunlight or convex to eaporate the ground, about super greenhouse gasses, about underground nukes in the polar regions, moholes (rather a concept for the further future) and of course I know wha nuclear winter is - altough this vidoe was the first time someone mentioned it in connection with mars.
I know the major drawbacks of terraformation are dirt and nitrogen and that you just cannot produce gravity. And absolutely noone know how man does react to mars gravity. Earth gravity is good, microgravity is bad, mars gravity could be either - or anything between.
I even once read an article about the econmic aspects of terraformation. People often compare it with the settlement of the americas, but that comparison has a lot of flaws. When people settled in america, they had earth, water and air and pretty much everything they needed. On mars, you have to import everything for a long while before ou become self sufficient. A better comparison is he panama channel. It is a large investment in the future and the greatest profitors may not be the investors but all our grandchildren.
In view of terraformation, venus is the way more promising planet to create another earth, but at venus, we are not remotely close to develop the technology needed to terraform this hellish place. People however can develop it from what they learn on mars.
That was a lot of unrelated information and I can write ten pages more if anyone asks, but for now: thank you again for cheering me up. I needed that.
@@andreaspeters8602 yes you are right that,Mars terraformation is pretty hard concept due to gravity. If it was not for gravity. Teraformation would have been much easier. I think we should first try to colonize Mars then we will be able to make Co2 plants on the planet that will be our first step towards terraformation. I personally think terraforming would not be possible for 1000 years for now. We can try it but the world right now has so many problems. Like the Gaza Israel problem is increasing very fast. Many people are still there who think NASA is a lying about moon landing, I dont think they accept that terraformation is real. We should concentrate on sending humans on Mars and creating sustainable base there, since the idea to colonize Mars came because of three things
Research
Curiosity
And most important survival of spieces
I understand you respect you
These was my opinion. Correct me if I said anything wrong. Sry for my bad English. Thank you🙏
The Mars idea is great, but what if the sun burns out? Elon knows the sun won't last forever. Maybe his team should focus on a Sun 2.0 project.
I feel like one wrong move and you could be broke in this Mars colonization adventure.
He give me bright sunshine 🥰
You too
Watching this after "Don't look up" is scary.
Eventually there will be, nothing we can do about it. It's all a matter of when nemesis comes through again. It comes in like a wrecking ball, pulling astroids and debris from the astroid belt on it's way, and rains hell on the solor system.
Just one teeny weeny thing. The Mars atmosphere was ablated. So how can this theory replace that lost atmosphere.
It can be done. I cant repeat everything but Neil DeGrasse Tyson explained in some video 2 ways to do it.
He wrong about the "new safer reactors". He's talking about MSR's.
Edit: They aren't new. They have been around since the 60's. And they weren't very good at making weapons grade nuclear materials.
Elon is obviously a fan of Total Recall not just Space Balls
Elon gonna be taken out for trying to go to war with Mars
Dude in the middle is like... uhhhhhh
Do we even have enough resources for these missions?
thousands of test
100 failed flights is gonna be there
Probability of survival of astronomers will br so less.
Man idk why can't we just live on earth for as long as it is habitable.
And use resources wisely without degrading environment further more.
Analyzing theory 100 times before using real life resources to build something big so chances of failing is less
being patient is the key 💙
