SpaceX gets you there.
Tesla gets you around there and batteries store power.

Boring Company to dig tunnels and create radiation safe locations for humans on mars.

I think he is all consumed by his vision of humans surviving on mars and thriving. And when you look at things from this view suddenly his crazy becomes less crazy.
