Blue Origin Mars mission delayed

A Blue Origin LLC mission to send satellites to Mars will be delayed until at least early 2025 over concerns about whether the Jeff Bezos-backed firm would be ready to launch as planned this year.

NASA said Friday that it would forgo an October flight “to avoid significant cost, schedule, and technical challenges associated with potentially removing fuel from the spacecraft in the event of a launch delay.”

Those first Mars colonists will be like "Okay let's see if we can make fuel from the Martian surface elements" which willl then be followed by "Unfortunately it was found that we cannot make fuel from elements found here so we seem to be stranded here forever...."
Plant potatoes, make Vodka, forget you are on Mars.
 
Ja, Elawn promises are usually a tad... overdone... and somewhat underdelivered, if at all.
When Elon promises that something ambitious will happen by a certain date take it with a gigantic boulder of solid salt.
