SpaceX's early missions to Mars will involve small fleets of Starship spacecraft, funded by public–private partnerships.The company hopes that once infrastructure is established on Mars and the launch cost is reduced further, colonization can begin.NASA is advancing many technologies to send astronauts to Mars as early as the 2030s. Here are six things we are working on right now to make future human missions to the Red Planet possible.The idea of sending humans to Mars has been the subject of aerospace engineering and scientific studies since the late 1940s as part of the broader exploration of Mars. Long-term proposals have included sending settlers and terraforming the planet. Currently, only robotic landers and rovers have been on Mars.

Will humans ever go to Pluto : "But it would be premature to send human beings to most places in the solar system, including Pluto, today, because we don't know enough about the planet to design such a mission. It's also very far beyond our technical capabilities, and there's no present need to spend the kind of money that it would take.

How much did Apollo 11 cost

Apollo 11, the first mission to successfully land man on the moon, cost approximately 355 million dollars, and the final mission, Apollo 17, cost approximately 450 million dollars.

Will Artemis go to Mars : The Artemis program is intended to reestablish a human presence on the Moon for the first time since the Apollo 17 moon mission in 1972. The program's stated long-term goal is to establish a permanent base on the Moon to facilitate human missions to Mars. Artemis 2 ( NET September 2025).

Mars may look hot, but don't let its color fool you — Mars is actually pretty cold! In orbit, Mars is about 50 million miles farther away from the Sun than Earth. That means it gets a lot less light and heat to keep it warm. Mars also has a hard time holding onto the heat it does get.

To take a spacecraft from Earth to Jupiter would take about six years, Phillips added, including another six years to return. So, no, humans can't travel to Jupiter right now. However, NASA is launching the Europa Clipper, a mission that is going to the Jupiter system in 2024.

Can we land on Neptune

In the future, an atmospheric probe may visit Neptune. But we can't land on Neptune because it has no solid surface, has temperature of -366°F at clouds to 12,630°F at its core and pressure there is also immense plus the winds on Neptune can reach speeds of 1,600 mph. We can land on its largest moon, Triton.Apollo 13 was to be the third lunar landing attempt, but the mission was aborted after rupture of service module oxygen tank. Still, it was classified as a “successful failure” because of the experience gained in rescuing the crew. The mission's spent upper stage successfully impacted the moon.Apollo 7 Cost

	original $	inflation adjusted $
Command & Service Module	$55 million	$463 million
Saturn IB Launch Vehicle	$45 million	$379 million
Operations	$45 million	$379 million
Total	$145 million	$1.2 billion

With Artemis missions, NASA will land the first woman and first person of color on the Moon, using innovative technologies to explore more of the lunar surface than ever before. We will collaborate with commercial and international partners and establish the first long-term presence on the Moon.

Is NASA going to the Moon in 2024 : NASA's Artemis 2 lunar mission in 2024 will send the first astronauts around the moon in nearly 50 years. The mission will launch four astronauts around the moon on a lunar flyby aboard an Orion spacecraft using a Space Launch System rocket.

Can we live on Mars : However, the surface is not hospitable to humans or most known life forms due to the radiation, greatly reduced air pressure, and an atmosphere with only 0.16% oxygen.

Does it rain on Mars

Mars is drier and colder than Earth, and in consequence dust raised by these winds tends to remain in the atmosphere longer than on Earth as there is no precipitation to wash it out (excepting CO2 snowfall).

As an ice giant, Uranus doesn't have a true surface. The planet is mostly swirling fluids. While a spacecraft would have nowhere to land on Uranus, it wouldn't be able to fly through its atmosphere unscathed either. The extreme pressures and temperatures would destroy a metal spacecraft.Neptune's environment is not conducive to life as we know it. The temperatures, pressures, and materials that characterize this planet are most likely too extreme, and volatile for organisms to adapt to.

How long is 1 year on Neptune : about 165 Earth years
Orbit and Rotation

One day on Neptune takes about 16 hours (the time it takes for Neptune to rotate or spin once). And Neptune makes a complete orbit around the Sun (a year in Neptunian time) in about 165 Earth years (60,190 Earth days).
