This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Yeah, start terraforming other planets please... but don't use money to do it, I want the money. I'll give it to my friends instead, but please go terraform other planets for me.
Other than Mars, I'm curious as to what other planets (plural, his words) he thinks could be terraformed. Venus is too damn hot, mercury is too close to the sun, and the rest are gas giants.
Is he proposing to colonise planets beyond our solar system?
Or they just want to make Space(X) Stations. Make them all free market economies, so they can just vent you to the 'verse when you miss your rent payment.
People are thinking about planets but there are potential habitable satellites or moons in the solar system. One of Jupiter's moon, Callisto, has surface water and potentially habitable by terraforming.
Yes, but he said planetS and moons
No, see, he gives $1 billion to his friends so that they can put $1m toward terraforming other planets
