  Elon Musk is swiftly refocussing his aim from Washington to colonising Mars. Less than a day after stepping down from his role at the Department of Government Efficiency, the SpaceX founder laid out a sweeping vision for interplanetary colonisation. At an event on May 29, Musk detailed the company’s roadmap for launching its first crewed Starship mission to Mars by 2026, starting with a Tesla Optimus robot. If all goes well, human missions could follow just two years later.

Musk considers the odds of launching in that upcoming window to be about 50-50. If SpaceX misses it, the next opportunity wouldn't come for another two years.  The first missions would carry only a handful of early settlers tasked with setting up infrastructure and solving challenges on th...

Moreover, while Pakistan may have leveraged Chinese commercial satellite imagery, the CDS said there is "no proof of real-time targeting support" provided by Beij...
