I think we'll be able to launch some starships to Mars in two years. So, the next Mars window, which is in about 26, 27 months, but we're just about to start or the beginning of a mass transit window now, and there are 26 months. So, just over two years, we'll be sending our first uncrewed starships to Mars. And then, if those work out well and we don't increment the crater counts on Mars, then we'll send humans two years after that.

Starships are expected to be launched to Mars in just over two years, during the upcoming mass transit window.

The first uncrewed missions will take place in 26 months, with human missions planned for two years later, depending on the success of the initial launches.

The goal is to avoid increasing the crater counts on Mars during the missions.
