"Mars trip with the same number of flights that's 170,000 launches to transport that 100million tons? And this guy is mad"
I think the idea that Starship will get us cities on mars is pure fantasyland. You could have a decent base on the moon, and maybe a visit to Mars, but if you want million tons to Mars, you have to go beyong chemical rockets, build a mars transit vehicle, etc.
It makes no sence to forgo those technologies if you are moving billions of tons.
