Reply to comment by JumboJetz in Realistically speaking When do you think we will land humans on Mars? by EnaGrimm

SpaceX will send Starships separately from Nasa, do the moon part of your estimate can be cut out.

They'll send them separately as tests but they will for sure partner with nasa for sending crew. No way would nasa not want in on that. And considering nasa will have already had experience using starship for moon landings they will be a lot more comfortable using it for mars landings. It's a win win for both to use the other for those first mars missions.

Of course, I meant that Artemis and the Mars missions don‘t have to happen each other. They can happen simultaneously.
