Mars by 2026? The 4 key takeaways from Elon Musk's Starship update
SpaceX's billionaire founder Elon Musk says that despite Starship setbacks, the space company hasn't taken its eyes off the ball — and that ball is big, red, and roughly 140 million miles away. In a 42-minute video posted to X on Thursday evening, Musk laid out a plan to launch the mammoth spacecraft to Mars for the first time as early as next year. His ultimate vision has been to use a fleet of Starships to send 1 million humans to Mars by 2050. To be clear, he doesn't just want to visit the planet; he wants to establish a permanent, independent city there. The new timeline is hard to fathom, especially for those who watched another Starship prototype explode this week. Though the ship reached space during the test, it failed to achieve many of its goals. Musk has earned a reputation for wildly underestimating schedules — he once aimed to send an uncrewed ship to Mars by 2018 — but that didn't stop him from presenting yet another ambitious timeline. "If we have two planets, we keep going," he said. "We can be out there among the stars, making science fiction no longer fiction." Here are the key takeaways from Musk's latest Mars update: SEE ALSO: Listen to the eerie sounds of Mars recorded by a NASA rover Elon Musk gave a presentation called "The Road to Making Life Multiplanetary." Credit: SpaceX / X screenshot Musk is now targeting late 2026 for the first uncrewed Starship flight to Mars, taking advantage of an orbital alignment that would shorten the journey between planets. The ship would arrive seven to nine months later in 2027. 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. In order to head to Mars that soon, SpaceX first has to master how to refuel a Starship in low-Earth orbit, after it has already blasted off the planet — something that, by the way, has never been done before. Though the first flight won't carry people, SpaceX still intends to put some butts in seats. The "crew" will consist of humanoid Optimus robots, built by Musk's electric car company, Tesla. During his talk, Musk presented some renderings of the sci-fi robots, including one meant as an homage to the famous Lunch atop a Skyscraper photo, with Optimuses (Optimi?) sitting together on a steel beam. "That would be an epic picture to see Optimus walking around on the surface of Mars," he said. NASA's Mars Odyssey spacecraft looked at Arcadia, a region with ice, in 2001. Credit: NASA / JPL / Arizona State University SpaceX is looking at several potential areas on Mars where Starship could land, but the lead candidate so far is a region known as Arcadia, which also happens to be the name of one of Musk's children. It's one of the few regions where lots of shallow ice exists relatively near the Martian equator, according to NASA. SpaceX will be prioritizing a location that isn't close to the poles, has ice as a source for water, and isn't too mountainous for the rockets, Musk said. With each Mars alignment launch window, SpaceX wants to increase its cadence of flights. To do that, they'll need a lot more rockets and ships. Right now the SpaceX plant in Starbase, Texas — which residents just voted to make a city — can make a new Starship every two to three weeks, Musk said. The company will build two so-called "Giga Bay" facilities — one in Texas and another in Florida — to ramp that up to several per day. He envisions 1,000 to 2,000 ships heading to the Red Planet every couple of years, with the ability to catch and reuse boosters within hours. The goal is to send enough people, infrastructure, and supplies so that if for some reason cargo shipments from Earth stop coming, the Martian city won't die. "My guess is that's about a million tons, but it might be 10 million tons. I hope it's not 100 million tons," he said. "That'd be a lot."

Xbox Ally vs. Nintendo Switch 2: Microsoft enters a handheld console war that lacks actual competition
(Xbox Image) This isn't quite what we expected to see last year, but the ROG Xbox Ally still marks a new chapter in the rapidly developing 'handheld war.' Microsoft's announcement of the Ally during its annual Xbox Showcase broadcast on Sunday only came a few days after Nintendo's release of its latest console, the Switch 2. While it's probably not intentional on Microsoft's part, that does set up a natural clash in the marketplace between the Xbox Ally and the Switch 2. Both are portable gaming systems, and both are major players in the international console market. At almost any other time in console history, this actually would've been a deliberate shot across Nintendo's bow. Microsoft is one of the few players who could actually hope to diminish Nintendo's hammerlock on the portable gaming scene. That's not what this is, however. Microsoft has shown a notable unwillingness to actually compete with Nintendo in recent years, instead preferring to publish former exclusives like Grounded and Hi-Fi Rush on the Switch. Further, the Xbox Ally from the jump is aimed at an established audience of PC gaming enthusiasts. One of its marquee features, in fact, is the ability to consolidate your games library into a single menu via the Xbox app. If you're at all into playing games on your computer, it's easy to end up with a big library spread out across a half-dozen storefronts: Steam, Epic, GOG, Itch, Microsoft Store, Game Pass, etc. As presented, the Ally can keep your entire collection in one easy-to-browse place, although individual games' compatibility with the Ally is not guaranteed. The Xbox Ally is also intended to ship with Copilot for Gaming integrated into the experience, so each Ally will come complete with an AI-powered 'companion.' If you grab the more expensive Ally X, it contains a high-end Ryzen chip that's apparently meant to future-proof the device to some extent against any further AI projects Microsoft might bring to the unit. Those two features are meant to appeal to a couple of specific audiences: people who already primarily play games on their PCs, and serious gadget hounds. The Xbox Ally is a huge new spoke in Microsoft's established 'Play Anywhere' initiative, but much of what it does is there to streamline the experience for people who are already heavily invested in the Xbox gaming platform. At Nintendo's Switch 2 launch event in San Francisco, executive VP Devon Pritchard hands a fan the first Switch 2 unit sold. (Nintendo Image) The Switch 2, by comparison, arguably has a different version of a similar issue. Nintendo famously does not follow the same sales plan with its consoles as Sony or Microsoft, preferring to put out cheaper devices with lower-end tech that can be produced for a per-unit profit. As a result, Nintendo's hardware tends to be dramatically less powerful than its competitors'. The original Switch was already having profound growing pains, as even some games by Nintendo itself (i.e. Pokemon Scarlet & Violet) did not run well on the Switch, especially in its portable mode. The difference is that Nintendo has, well, Nintendo. For 40 years, the biggest reason to buy a Nintendo console is to play Nintendo's exclusive in-house productions like Super Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, and Super Smash Bros. While some of Nintendo's franchises have appeared on mobile devices recently, the actual marquee titles — Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey, Mario Kart 8, etc. — have never been officially ported to anything besides official Nintendo systems. Unlike Sony, which has begun bringing first-party PlayStation games to PC via Steam in recent years, Nintendo wants you to have to buy its consoles to play its games. I could give you a laundry list of complaints about the Switch as a whole, not least of which is the peculiar and uncharacteristic fragility of its hardware, but Nintendo has always been its own biggest advantage. That does mean that the primary reason to buy a Switch 2 is the promise of whatever new first-party Nintendo games will eventually be released for the system. Like the Xbox Ally, it's already aimed at a specific, established audience: fans of the company's established franchises. The real X-factor in this discussion, however, is the Xbox Ally's price tag. The Switch 2 currently retails for an MSRP of $499.99, and while its launch lineup is fairly weak, it's backwards compatible with most if not all of the existing Switch library. The ROG Xbox Ally will ship with two separate SKUs: the cheaper, less powerful base model, and the higher-end Ally X. Microsoft has yet to reveal their respective prices at launch, but since the Xbox Ally is a customized model of the existing ROG Ally, it's hard to imagine either version will cost less than $650. In theory, the Xbox Ally can make up some of that difference through a cheaper software library. Digital storefronts have flash sales and free weekends all the time, and there's always Game Pass. Meanwhile, Nintendo has become infamous for almost never lowering the prices on its games, digitally or otherwise; the Switch 2 is significantly more expensive than its predecessor; and any die-hard Switch fan will tell you that you'll want to pick up a Pro Controller ($89) eventually. All in all, this is an unusually pricey console launch for Nintendo. At the end of the day, the Switch 2 and Xbox Ally are laser-focused on two separate, specific audiences. They have points of overlap, but only in the vaguest possible sense, and at least one of the two companies is less interested in active competition than ever before. If you're looking to break into portable gaming in 2025, it's going to come down to your particular fields of interest, as well as whatever Microsoft decides to charge for the Xbox Ally.

Cathie Wood says the Musk-Trump feud reveals how much Musk's companies rely on the government
Ark Invest's Cathie Wood has weighed in on the public feud between Elon Musk and Donald Trump. Wood said the feud reveals how much Musk's companies rely on the US government. Trump said Saturday he had no desire to fix his relationship with the Tesla CEO. The public feud between Elon Musk and President Donald Trump has shown investors just how much control the US government has over Musk's companies, Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood says. "I think the way this is evolving is Elon, Tesla, and investors are beginning to understand more and more just how much the government has control here," Wood said in a video posted to the company's YouTube channel on Friday. Many of Musk's companies have key links to the government and have received billions of dollars in federal loans, contracts, tax credits, and subsidies over the years. "Elon is involved in companies that are depending on the government," Wood said, pointing to Tesla, SpaceX, and Neuralink as examples. SpaceX's COO, Gwynne Shotwell, said last year that the company has $22 billion worth of federal contracts. Neuralink, Musk's brain chip company, is subject to FDA regulation, and a less friendly regulatory environment could impact Tesla's robotaxi rollout plans. Tesla stock fell more than 14% on Thursday after Musk and Trump became locked in a series of increasingly bitter clashes. The feud appeared to begin, at least publicly, on Tuesday, after Musk criticized Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill." He called it a "disgusting abomination" and said it would increase the national budget deficit. Tensions rose fast between the once-close allies on Thursday. Trump threatened to cut Musk's government contracts and Musk said SpaceX would immediately begin decommissioning its Dragon spacecraft — which returned stranded NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore from the International Space Station in March. Musk later retracted that threat, which Wood said was a sign he was "beginning to walk this back." Wood said the rift with Trump could, in part, be Musk's attempt to further decouple himself from the Trump administration. Musk announced in April that he would be stepping back from his government work. "One of the hypotheses out there is that what has happened was partly — not entirely — orchestrated," Wood said. "Clearly, there has been some brand damage to Tesla, which he readily admits, and I think he's trying to disengage from the government and being associated with one party or the other." Moving forward, Wood said neither Trump nor Musk needed to get "bogged down" with a fight and that she believed both would eventually heed that reasoning. She also appeared to be confident that Musk could make the situation work for him. She said Musk "works really well under pressure" and that "he creates a lot of that chaos and pressure himself." Trump, however, signaled Saturday that he had no desire to fix his relationship with the SpaceX CEO anytime soon. "I have no intention of speaking to him," Trump told NBC News. "I think it's a very bad thing, because he's very disrespectful. You could not disrespect the office of the President," he added. Vice President JD Vance struck a somewhat friendlier tone when asked about the possibility of reconciliation during a Thursday interview with podcaster Theo Von. Vance said that while he thought it was a "huge mistake" for Musk to "go after the president," he hoped Musk "figures it out" and "comes back into the fold."
