The head of “Roskosmos” commented on the proposal of Elon Mask to bombard the poles of Mars with thermonuclear missiles.
On Monday, the head of Roskosmos, Dmitry Rogozin, said that the proposal by Elon Mask about the possibility of launching 10 thousand military missiles on Mars for its terraforming testifies to the US course on space militarization.
“The head of SpaceX suggested“ terraforming Mars ”by conducting a large series of thermonuclear explosions at the poles of the planet. It is unlikely to explode Mars, but the pretext for the withdrawal of outer space thermonuclear weapons is obvious. Apparently, the United States is heading for the militarization of space, ” Rogozin wrote on his blog on the social network.
Recall, the head of SpaceX, Elon Musk, said on Twitter that the need to send 10 thousand military rockets to Mars to transform its biosphere is “not a problem.” According to Musk, the “bombardment” of ice caps at the poles of the planet will cause the evaporation of frozen carbon dioxide, which will cause a greenhouse effect and increase the temperature of the atmosphere of Mars.
