"据我们所知,生命只存在于一个星球上,那就是地球。如果发生了什么不好的事情,它就会消失。我认为我们应该在另一个星球上建立生命——特别是在火星上——但我们的进展并不是很好。SpaceX 的目的就是为了实现这一点。"
— Elon Musk
Simplified Meaning:
Life, as far as we know, only exists on Earth. If something catastrophic happens here, all life could be wiped out. Therefore, it's smart to think about living on another planet, like Mars, as insurance. This idea is like backing up important files on your computer. If your computer crashes, you won’t lose everything because you have another copy. Right now, we aren’t moving fast enough to achieve this. SpaceX, a company, aims to solve this problem by working on technology to help humans live on Mars.
