Elon Musk on why SpaceX must think long term: “I really just need to make sure that I can focus on the long term. By long term, I just mean five to ten years. One of the challenges with being a public company is the pressure to have great... results every single quarter and to not really invest in things that may only pay off in full. And so I think it’s a good idea to invest in things that are going to pay off in five to ten years. In the case of SpaceX, I want to extend consciousness beyond Earth and have a growing civilization on the Moon, Mars, and elsewhere in the solar system. The return, I think ultimately, would be very high. But in the short term, we’ll be spending all this money on a Moon base or a Mars base, and then people are like, ‘Well, you missed your earnings this quarter because you spent too much on Mars.’ I’m like, ‘Yes.’”show more

Elon Musk: The long-term value of SpaceX is immense – it’s just beyond the planning horizon of most investors. WSJ: “Who's going to pay for [the Mars colonization]? Are your investors going to put the money up to do that?” Elon: “I think long-term, the value of it will be incredibly high. It's just beyond the planning horizon of most people or most investors. Obviously, if there's a thriving city on Mars and there's a lot of interplanetary commerce and SpaceX is the primary provider of that, it would be immensely valuable.” Interview with the WSJ, May 2023

Sam Altman: “One of the few arbitrage opportunities left in the market is time” “I don’t think you can beat the market in a lot of ways, but the one way I do is by making a long-term commitment to something. My new belief on how long I should hold stock in the best companies I invest in is forever. And I think in a world where people are increasingly focused on the tick and the quarterly earnings cycle, you should try to go in the other direction. This is a great way to generate value and wealth.” Sam continues: “And so I think that when you’re thinking about a startup, it’s really worthwhile to think about something you’re willing to make a very long-term commitment to because that is where the current void in the market is. You get paid as a founder for the wealth you create for other people… The best companies just create massive amounts of value for the world, and then they capture some of that for themselves. But they capture far less than they create, and they do it over a very long period of time. So if you’re going to be one of those companies, I think you want to make a super long-term commitment to yourself and others that are going to work on it with you… It is worth waiting because you will make far more money over the long term by doing this company really well than a bunch of short term things along the way.” Video source: Y Combinator (2016)

ELON: WE’LL NEED TREMENDOUS ENTREPRENEURIAL RESOURCES TO ENABLE CIVILIZATION ON MARS “Once there's a means of getting cargo and people to and from Mars as well as to and from the Moon and other places in the solar system, I think that's really where there's a tremendous amount of entrepreneurial resources that are needed. Because you've got to build out the entire base of industry, everything that allows human civilization to exist. It's going to be a lot harder in places like Mars or the Moon.” Source: SXSW, March 2018

Peter Thiel: Think of the future on three horizons “What you end up doing when you think of the future as indefinite is you pick a job that will be good on your resume because it will then lead to a different job later on.” Instead of viewing the future as indefinite, Thiel suggests that the students in the audience think of the future on three horizons: short term, medium term, and long term. Very short term is: Are you going to be happy and will you be learning a lot? Very long term is: Are you working on something important or meaningful? “I think we are in a skewed world where we overweight the medium term, and we underweight some combination of the short term and the long term.” Thiel would recalibrate it to: “Focus on some combination of short term and long term. And forget about the medium term.”

ELON MUSK: "We can make a moon base, and I think it'll be pretty cool if you could have a vacation on the moon, like that would be the most epic vacation. I think that will be possible in the future. And then Mars is another step beyond that. Mars is a whole planet, and with gravity much closer to that of Earth, and it has an atmosphere, and if you warm up Mars, you could one day make Mars like Earth, meaning with like liquid oceans and life, and where you could walk outside without a spacesuit type of thing."

🔊 Elon Musk did a live phone interview earlier today with a guest host of the Sean Hannity radio program, discussing his latest SpaceX timelines. I only caught about the last 5 minutes of it: “The best way to expand compute is really in space. There’s a lot of room in space and if you look at the size of Earth relative to the sun or relative to the solar system, you realize just how tiny Earth is. We’re very, very tiny. We only receive about half a billionth of The Sun’s energy. So if you really think of Earth as being like a tiny dust mote in a vast darkness. So the way to expand compute— without, ya know, using up all the land on Earth— is to do so in space. And then you can do it without using up space for power & water on Earth. You can just do it in space, so… I think we will probably be launching our first AI satellites next year and then we will probably be able to do that, I think, at large scale in about two years. Yeah, well, I’ve always had the philosophy that everyone at the company should receive stock in the company so that they can participate in the upside of the company and it’s great for aligning incentives as well, so as the company prospers, then the people at the company— the employees — also prosper, so that’s just been, ya know, my philosophy from Day 1 is just to make sure everyone gets stock in the company, so there are, I think, several thousand people who’ve been – it’s not just one welder – it’s several thousand people who were, you know, working on the production line and started at the company relatively early… then probably their stock is worth over $1 million at this point “Yeah, so, Mars is much harder to get to than the moon and you can only travel to Mars roughly every two years. So Earth and Mars align such that you can travel to Mars only once every 26 months. So that makes it a lot harder than the moon where you can go to the moon pretty much anytime and it only takes a few days to get to the moon whereas it takes about six months to get to Mars. So that’s why we can do the moon faster than we can do Mars. But I think, probably, if things go well, we can probably send the first people to Mars in about five years, and then rapidly increase the cadence of sending people to Mars thereafter, so every two years we could dramatically increase the number of ships going to Mars and, ya know, hopefully in a 10 or 12 year timeframe we’ve sent thousands of people to Mars.”

Chamath Palihapitiya on SpaceX today: "I think it’s an incredible company. I really believe in Elon Musk . I believe in SpaceX. I think that people are probably underestimating the short-term value of two things. One is the industrial logic of acquiring Tesla. There is a very obvious industrial logic to put these two businesses together, to have one capital structure, to have one balance sheet, to be able to raise money for the broad swath of things that he’s doing as one vehicle. And then the second is I think that you’re going to see an enormous business in the domestic cellular market before you see a lot of other revenue streams hit."

Elon Musk: Whoever you are, SpaceX wants to be able to take you to the moon, to Mars, and beyond. (Full Elon Musk remarks at the SpaceX Nasdaq debut.) “It is certainly hard to believe that a little company that started in a warehouse in El Segundo is now going public with the largest IPO ever. If people had told me this was going to happen, I was like, man, you must be smoking some really good crack because I think this company is going to fail. I gave SpaceX less than a 10% chance of succeeding at all, to be clear. In fact I told people we're probably going to fail, but we should give it a try because if we don't, if there's not a new company that enters space, we will never be a truly space faring civilization. While the other aerospace companies build good rockets and everything, they were simply not pursuing the technology that's necessary to make life multiplanetary, to make Star Trek and the exciting science fiction futures that we've read about real. And that's what SpaceX is all about, is to take the fiction out of science fiction and create an exciting, inspiring future for everyone. We want to be able to take anyone who wants to go to the moon, to Mars or in the solar system and maybe beyond the solar system at some point. We want to be able to take you there, not just a few astronauts. I mean you literally you, whoever you are watching this, SpaceX wants to be able to take you to the moon, take you to Mars and ultimately beyond. I'm confident at this point that with the incredible team that we have here at SpaceX that we will do that for you. I always think about this. There are always problems on Earth. There are always things that we wish to be better, that we want to solve here on Earth, and we should solve them. But there also have to be things that get you excited about the future. A future that makes you glad to wake up in the morning because you can't wait to see what happens next. And that's the future that SpaceX wants to bring to you.” SpaceX Rings the Nasdaq Stock Market Opening Bell, June 12, 2026

Peter Thiel on how to think about the future “What you end up doing when you think of the future as indefinite is you pick a job that will be good on your resume because it will then lead to a different job later on.” Instead of viewing the future as indefinite, Thiel suggests that the students in the audience think of the future on three horizons: short term, medium term, and long term. And he defines them as follows: 1. Short term = Are you going to be happy and will you be learning a lot? 2. Medium term = How good is it on your resume? 3. Long term = Are you working on something important or meaningful? “I think we are in a skewed world where we overweight the medium term, and we underweight some combination of the short term and the long term.” Thiel recommends recalibrating it to: “Focus on some combination of short term and long term. And forget about the medium term.” Video source: Radical Discourse (2014)

Elon Musk: Let's allocate 1% of our efforts to make life multiplanetary. I think it's worth it. "I do think that 99% of our effort should be focused on Earth, and really, 99.9% of our effort is focused on Earth. But I do think it's worth to say, let's take 1% and try to establish a self-sustaining city on Mars and make life multiplanetary. And I think there are a couple of good reasons for that. First of all, there's always the possibility that there could be some terrible thing that happens on Earth that we maybe don't anticipate. And if you look at the fossil record and the fact that there have been five major extinction events in the last 500 million years, and what happened to the dinosaurs? They used to be here. They're not around anymore. So, that's the defensive argument. And then, there's what I call the inspiration argument or the excitement. Building a city on Mars would just be this incredible adventure, that there be things in life that are exciting and inspiring, that when you wake up in the morning, you're like, yes, I'm glad to be alive. And I think having this great adventure would be like that." Interview with the Chinese Television, 2015

Saudi Arabia's Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud: I think for Israel to insist solely on the military approach in the long term will be very detrimental to Israel's interest. To me, the idea that a purely military approach is viable in the long term is completely incorrect and is not going to be in the interest of anyone. So I would really focus our efforts on diplomacy. And here I think the US obviously has an important role to play.

ELON MUSK: MULTI-PLANETARY MEANS EARTH'S GOT TO BE GOOD, AND YOU NEED ANOTHER PLANET "Tesla is mostly about making sure life on Earth is good, and xAI is about that too. Because multi-planetary means Earth's got to be good and you need another planet Sometimes people think because they have legacy mental templates, they think that going to Mars is an escape from Earth. Or that it would be some place where billionaires would go. But actually, Mars will be very dangerous. Even the moon base will also be dangerous. Much more dangerous and much less comfortable than Earth So the people that would go in the early days to make life multi-planetary on Mars or the moon, they would have a much higher risk of death than if they stayed on Earth. And things would be cramped and uncomfortable So that's the sales pitch for Mars. It's going to be uncomfortable, the food won't be as good as Earth, you might die. It's going to be a massive amount of hard work, and it may not succeed"

The goal will be to make Mars self-sustaining as quickly as possible. This is just a sort of rough idea of what things will be like for the first city on Mars. My guess is we'll probably put the launchpads or the landing pads a little further away, just in case. We're going to need a lot of solar power. Since you can't really walk around on the surface of Mars, at least until Mars is terraformed to be like Earth, you need to walk around with a Mars suit and be initially in kind of glass domes. But it would work. And eventually we can make Mars into an Earth-like planet.” Source: Elon Musk, SpaceX Update, May 2025

ELON: LET’S ALLOCATE 1% OF OUR EFFORTS TO MAKE LIFE MULTIPLANETARY “I do think that 99% of our effort should be focused on Earth, and really, 99.9% of our effort is focused on Earth. But I do think it's worth taking 1% and trying to establish a self-sustaining city on Mars and make life multiplanetary. There are a couple of good reasons for that. First of all, there's always the possibility that there could be some terrible thing that happens on Earth that we maybe don't anticipate. If you look at the fossil record, you see that there have been five major extinction events in the last 500 million years. What happened to the dinosaurs? They used to be here. They're not around anymore. That's the defensive argument. And then there's what I call the inspiration argument or the excitement. Building a city on Mars would just be this incredible adventure. There would be things in life that are exciting and inspiring, that when you wake up in the morning, you're like, yes, I'm glad to be alive. I think having this great adventure would be like that.” Source: Interview with the Chinese Television, April 2015
