🚨 ELON MUSK: IF A COMET HITS EARTH, IT’S GAME OVER “Earth does not currently have any ability to stop asteroids. Now, with Starship, we then have some ability to stop an asteroid. Technically, a comet would be the real danger. There are billions, maybe trillions of objects in the outer solar system. Some of them are very long-period comets that we simply don’t know exist. The comet Shoemaker-Levy, when that hit Jupiter, it made a hole in Jupiter the size of Earth. So if that did hit Earth, it’s game over. Everything’s dead. The probable lifespan of life is just much greater if we’re a multiplanet and ultimately a multistellar civilization.”

Elon Musk: Consciousness is rare and fleeting. We must become multiplanetary to protect it. “The Universe is about 13.8 billion years old. Earth is about 4.5 billion years old. If you consider that civilization has only been around for a little over 5,000 years, all of human civilization is basically the blink of an eye. It's just a fraction, it's nothing. That probably means that consciousness is incredibly rare and perhaps fleeting. It may not last for very long because otherwise I think we would have seen aliens, some kind of sign of aliens. I think the most likely explanation is that consciousness is rare. Does that consciousness actually extend to another planet? Does that consciousness extend to another star system? Ultimately, if we're able to become a space-faring civilization, a multiplanet species, and ultimately a multistellar species, and go out there and explore all these star systems, I think we may find that there are many long-dead one-planet civilizations. We don't want to be one of those lame one-planet civilizations. We want to be a multiplanet civilization, ultimately a multistellar civilization, be out there among the stars. That's why I think that there's this high urgency to making life multiplanetary.” SpaceX Update, April 4, 2024

ELON: THERE’S HIGH URGENCY TO MAKE LIFE MULTIPLANETARY “If you consider civilization, it's only been around for like a little over 5,000 years out of 4.5 billion years that Earth has been around and the 13.8 billion years of the universe. All of human civilization is basically the blink of an eye. I think that probably means that consciousness is incredibly rare and perhaps fleeting. It may not last for very long, because otherwise I think we would have seen aliens, some kind of sign of aliens. I think the most likely explanation is that consciousness is so rare. Ultimately, if we're able to become a space-faring civilization, a multiplanet species and ultimately a multistellar species and go out there and explore all these star systems, I think we may find that there are many long-dead one-planet civilizations. We don't want to be one of those lame one-planet civilizations, we want to be a multiplanet civilization, ultimately be a multistellar civilization, be out there among the stars, make science fiction not fiction forever, kind of make Star Trek real.

ELON: MARS COULD SAVE EARTH JUST LIKE AMERICA SAVED EUROPE “I do think there is an important threshold if we are able to make life multiplanetary, that you can get to the point on Mars where Mars can grow by itself, even if the resupply ships from Earth stop coming. That's the critical threshold where the probable lifespan of civilization is dramatically greater. So, it's not enough just to go to Mars and have a small base or something like that. You've got to actually have enough resources on Mars that if resupply ships stop coming for any reason, and it could be that things on Earth ended with a bang or a whimper, and currently it's trending to end, it's sort of tragic, currently things are trending to end with a whimper in adult diapers because of the lack of birth rate, but as soon as we can make life multiplanetary, sustainably multiplanetary, the probable lifespan of civilization is dramatically greater. And I think that's really the fundamental test, can we get to that point before civilization collapses? Can we make life multiplanetary, sustainably multiplanetary before something happens on Earth to prevent that from occurring? And if we do, the future is exciting and bright, and Mars may one day come back and save Earth, just like America came back and saved Europe and saved the rest of the world three times last century. Three times, America saved the world last century. And what a disaster would have been if America had not existed. And one day, Mars may play that same role on Earth.” Source: Town hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, October 18, 2024

NEW: NASA Head on Life Beyond Earth “I have to believe that there is life out there somewhere” “I believe that if we are able to get to Mars and bring back samples from Mars, we will probably, with greater than 90% confidence, have some evidence of microbial life. Now that is not the aliens we see in the movies, but it would be a proof point that there is life outside of earth." LA Times Media Group LA Times Studios

ELON MUSK: WE SHOULD HAVE A SECOND PLANET TO PRESERVE CIVILIZATION "In my view, we should have a second planet to preserve civilization. Because let's say hypothetically I mean, maybe those are the ruins of a long-dead civilization That will probably happen to Earth at some point. You know, it's a matter of time before we get hit by an asteroid, or maybe we annihilate ourselves with nuclear war, or supervolcanoes"

.Elon Musk Delivers a Masterclass Takedown of Bill Gates and the "Extinctionists" “I meet many people who think that there are too many humans on Earth. This is not true. There aren't enough humans on Earth. In fact, you can fit all the humans on Earth in the city of New York on one floor.” “There are actually very few people on Earth. It's only if you live in a very dense city environment that it seems there are many people, that Earth is densely populated, but it is only densely populated in like 0.1% of the surface area.”

ELON MUSK: "If you think really long-term, then you realize that eventually there will be some natural disaster, even if it is not made by humans, that destroys all life on Earth. Eventually, the Sun will expand and evaporate the oceans, and we'll be like Venus, so hot that no life can really exist. The only way to prolong life is to become multiplanetary and ultimately multistellar. And if we do not do that, all life on Earth will die."

Elon Musk explains why the total silence from the galaxy is worse news than finding aliens. Lex Fridman asks him whether he has ever seen proof that we aren't alone. Musk: "a lot of people have asked me if I've seen any evidence of aliens and I haven't, which is kind of concerning" Musk: "if they're out there, they're very subtle. We might just be the only consciousness, at least in the galaxy" He then measures human civilization from the invention of writing, roughly 5,000 years. Musk: "that's one millionth of Earth's existence" The margin that produced us was thinner than that. Musk: "if life had taken 10% longer to evolve on Earth, it wouldn't exist at all" The sun is slowly expanding. At some point it boils the oceans and Earth becomes uninhabitable. Musk: "if we do not become multiplanetary and ultimately go beyond our solar system, annihilation of all life on Earth is a certainty" Musk: "this is the first time in the history of Earth that it's been possible for life to extend beyond Earth" Musk: "it may be open now and then never open again" Musk: "we don't want to be one of those lame one planet civilizations that just dies out" His point isn't that extinction is possible. It's that it's inevitable unless life expands beyond Earth. In his view, becoming multiplanetary isn't about exploration. It's about ensuring consciousness survives.

ELON MUSK: “Our progress toward a Kardashev Type II civilization, let’s have an aspiration that if we say that our goal is to get even a millionth of the Sun’s energy, that would be more than 1,000 times as much energy as could possibly be produced on Earth. About half a billionth of the Sun’s energy reaches Earth, so you would have to go up three orders of magnitude from that just to get to a millionth. We are very, very, very far from even having a billionth of the Sun’s energy harnessed in any way. So a reasonable goal would be to try to get to a millionth.”

Elon Musk: Our squabbles on Earth are very minor when you consider the grandness of the universe. “It's awe-inspiring to consider just how tiny we are in the grand scheme of things. And yet we often get sort of caught up in the sort of these sort of squabbles on Earth that are really very sort of minor things when you consider the grandness of the universe. And so I think it is important actually to consider the grandness of the universe and what we can do that is much greater than what we've done before, as opposed to worry about sort of small squabbles on Earth. There's not much point in that. We want to be a civilization that expands to the galaxy with spaceships that anyone can go anywhere they want and at any time that would be epic. And have a city on the moon, cities on Mars, populate the solar system and send spaceships to other star systems. That sounds like the best possible future.” From: Terafab announcement, March 21, 2026
