SpaceX, founded by Elon Musk, released a video explaining how his creation, the BFR (Big F*cking Rocket- yes, we’re serious) would take passengers anywhere on Earth in under 60 minutes.
The rocket could go from New York to Paris in 30 minutes and Honolulu to Tokyo in 30 minutes, says Musk
Watch the concept video:
Since the design of the Rocket will be reusable and refuelable, the BFR will be able to take trips to the moon, which will aid in the creation of Moon Base Alpha.
First opportunity to land BFR with cargo on Mars is 2022, followed by BFR crew and cargo missions to Mars in 2024. https://t.co/kCtBLPbSg8

Although skeptics are tearing down his ideas with regards to safety, cost, and practicality, Elon Musk can’t be bothered. His vision for commercial rocket travel is merely a stepping stone to his larger goal of building an Interplanetary Transport System. In doing so, he hopes to disrupt the way we travel on Earth and beyond.
