Elon Musk's father urged to focus on the Moon instead of Mars.

      April 10, 2026 18:01 Society Engineer and South African entrepreneur Errol Musk believes that humanity should rationally focus its efforts on exploring the Moon rather than attempting to reach Mars. He made this statement at a meeting with journalists on April 10, reports correspondent of NIA "Nizhny Novgorod". According to Errol Musk, his elder son Elon Musk currently acknowledges that a flight to Mars will not be feasible in the near future. Instead, his attention will be focused on the development and creation of lunar bases. "Personally, I think that this is, firstly, more practical, achievable, and for us as humanity, it is more correct and will bring many bonuses," noted Errol Musk. He also shared bolder ideas. In his opinion, in 60-100 years, technologies for gravitational jumps through space and time may emerge, allowing people to reach Mars and possibly other planets much faster. Earlier, it was reported that Musk's father called anti-Russian sanctions nonsense. NIA "Nizhny Novgorod" has a Telegram channel.
