[Wang Chun on Choosing Mars as the Target for Interstellar Flight: Exploration Should Not Be Delayed for the Next Generation, Giving SpaceX a Reason to No Longer Forget Mars] BlockBeats News, May 23: F2Pool co-founder Wang Chun discussed why he chose Mars instead of the Moon as the target for participating in SpaceX's first interstellar manned flight. He believes that even without private investment in lunar missions, humanity will still reach the Moon, and likely very soon. With the intensification of space competition, governments around the world will establish lunar bases. He is content to watch all of this unfold. On the other hand, he remains uncertain about the progress of Mars exploration within our lifetime and feels that something should be done about it. By purchasing a mission to fly by Mars, he hopes to give SpaceX another reason to no longer forget about Mars. Because we truly should not delay Mars exploration for the next generation.
