SpaceX CEO Elon Musk recently announced the company's Starship rocket would embark on a journey to Mars at the end of 2026.
The spacecraft will carry Tesla's humanoid robot Optimus onboard.
Musk shared the information through a post on X, saying "Starship departs for Mars at the end of next year, carrying Optimus."
He further added if all goes well with those landings, human landings might begin as early as 2029 or more likely by 2031.
