   Do you know something about SpaceX schedule for going to Mars that I   
   don't? Last I heard Musk wanted to reach Mars around 2026. I never   
   thought that SpaceX would keep that schedule, but I don't think that   
   Musk wants to push the development of Mars landing legs "quite a bit   
   down the development pipe".
