YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDonald Trump has promised to 'expand US territory' and send astronauts to Mars. That, presumably, means in the next four years. But is that even possible?
Andrew Marr is joined by cosmologist Lord Martin Rees to discuss the feasibility of the pledge, and the logistics that would be involved.
Elon Musk has since doubled down on the pledge, remarking that it would be 'incredible to send DOGE to Mars'. The owner of Space X is an official member of Donald Trump's government, so will likely have a crucial role in the mission. But will it work and will it be worth it?
