SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk says his company's Starship could be on its way to Mars as soon as 2024. A prototype of the rocket system is currently being tested in Boca Chica Beach, Texas. Musk told a German media company on Tuesday about the timeline for his company's first mission to Mars. Musk said he definitely believes the Starship will be on its way to the Red Planet by 2026, but could launch by 2024 if the company is lucky.
