Veracity of Failure: The Race to Mars

It takes failure to achieve innovation. Billionaires understand.
Governments do not.

Ego doesn’t pay. Success does. Mars is the prize. It is the future. The one who gets there will be rewarded.
A challenge to realize the greatest achievement ever – colonization of Mars, the first step in reaching the stars. Some want it more than others. Some are willing to do anything to climb over the competition.
Not everyone believes it should be done. Spend the money where it can do the most good.
How about ensuring the survival of all humanity?
The teams are created and the production facilities are running in high gear. Let nothing stand in the way of progress. Not death. Certainly not failure.
No one will remember second place.
The race is on.
Fail faster. Learn and do better.
Never take your eyes off the prize until you’re standing on Mars.
