But how else will capitalists force people to pay for air, which seems to be the last thing necessary to support life that they haven't figured out how to charge people for?

Red pressure
The oxygen alarm in Sector C-7 was a silent, polite blink on the monitoring array. A minor pressure dip. Routine.

5. Al-driven autonomous operations Altman's optimism is grounded in Al's role in enabling space operations Tom's Guide +1. Required invention: • Autonomous spacecraft operations • Autonomous maintenance and repair • Autonomous construction • Autonomous hazard detection Why: Human labor in space is too expensive unless Al handles 95 percent of the work. Current status: • Early autonomy exists (e.g., docking systems) • No general autonomous space operations Realistic timeline: • 2035-2045 • This is the only domain where Altman's timeline is plausible.
6. A commercial reason to hire thousands of people in space Required invention: • A profitable industry that requires humans in orbit Examples might include: • On-orbit manufacturing • High-value microgravity biotech • Space-based data centers • Tourism at massive scale • Asteroid-derived materials Current status: • None of these industries exist • None are profitable • None require humans Realistic timeline: • 2045-2060 • Reality gap: 20+ years
Investors will pour billions into Musk’s and Altman’s promises, only to see that money wasted once those easily disproven claims collapse under scrutiny.

1. Ultra-cheap, ultra-reliable human launch Required invention: • Fully reusable heavy-lift rockets with aircraft-like reliability • Launch costs under $100/kg (currently $2,000-$10,000/kg) Why: You cannot hire thousands of graduates into space jobs if each seat costs $50M. Current status: • SpaceX Starship is the closest attempt, but not yet operational at scale. • No other system is close. Realistic timeline: • Best case: 2040 • Altman's timeline: 2030-2035 • Reality gap: ~10 years
2. Radiation-safe commercial habitats Required invention: • Mass-produced orbital habitats with shielding equivalent to 5-10 meters of water • Or artificial magnetic shielding (no prototype exists) Why: You cannot employ civilians in LEO, lunar orbit, or deep space without long-term radiation protection. Current status: • No radiation-safe habitat exists. • No artificial magnetosphere exists. • No industrial-scale regolith shielding exists. Realistic timeline: • 2045+ for safe, scalable habitats • Reality gap: 10-20 years
3. Cheap, high-capacity orbital logistics Required invention: • Automated cargo transfer • Orbital construction robotics • On-orbit fuel depots • Routine resupply at commercial scale Why: A "job in space" implies a functioning economy in orbit, not a one-off mission. Current status: • Zero commercial orbital construction • Zero fuel depots • Zero autonomous orbital logistics Realistic timeline: • 2040 for early infrastructure • 2050 for commercial scale • Reality gap: 15-20 years
4. Industrial-scale life support Required invention: • Closed-loop life support that works for years without resupply • On-orbit agriculture or biomanufacturing • Medical systems that don't require Earth evacuation Why: You cannot employ civilians in space if they must be evacuated after every medical issue. Current status: • ISS life support is fragile, maintenance-heavy, and Earth-dependent • No closed-loop system exists Realistic timeline: • 2040-2050 • Reality gap: 15 years
Altman’s prediction is physically possible but institutionally and technologically implausible on a 10‑year horizon. The six required breakthroughs (none of which exist today):

I am writing this #serial #Fiction place in the early years of establishing a #MarsColony to give people a much more realistic idea of what living there will be like. I don't have all the details prefect, no one does, but closer than most. #sciencefiction

Elon Musk believes SpaceX will land humans on Mars within just 4 years—and he says building a self-sustaining city there is the most important task humanity can take on.

An astronaut stands on the Martian surface, gazing at a newly built settlement under a yellow sky. Massive buildings rise in the distance, while workers prepare the structures for future colonists. Dust swirls around futuristic vehicles and machinery, shaping humanity’s next home.
🪐 Would YOU live on Mars? 🚀
No air. No water. No way back (yet). 😨
So why are we still planning to live on Mars? NASA & SpaceX are racing to build the first Martian settlements.

They are looking to pull the social security surplus for Rocket money! I guess, that #MarsColony won't build itself! 🤔😞
Although, with his current #wealth, lonE skuM would have to live for a thousand years, spending $40,000.00 an hour to spend all of it. So there's that. You know this money grab is only about #RocketMoney for his #MarsColony! I think he thinks "Total Recall" was a documentary! 🤣😬
"When the worst people on the planet are giving you a standing ovation, it's worth asking why that's true." Are you terrified yet? The devastation! 🥺Watch this! #StopTheLies #USAID is going to be funneling directly into lonE skuM's pocket, for #RocketMoney! #MarsColony 😳 youtu.be/LcDXwj-Hp5g?...
A photo of a paper collage. The background is all orange and coral pink with liquid fire and lava flows. Three white boys with blond, shaved heads in white tshirts and jeans are straddling a canon. More lava is flowing from the cannon like a faucet. Two sailboats are floating on the lava like water and two seagulls fly in the black sky.
Sometimes I make weirdo art just for kicks. This is a paper collage made with cutouts from a bunch of vintage National Geographic magazines.
I kind of want to call it, “Get In Losers, We’re Going to Mars!”
