• https://www.nextbigfuture.com, by Brian Wang

Elon Musk and Tesla and SpaceX teams have talked about adapting the Cybertruck for Mars. Elon has joked that the Cybertruck is the official truck of Mars.

Robotically controlled Cybertrucks could be part of a Mars exploration system that also includes SpaceX's Starship super-rocket according to mission plans suggested by Mars Society co-founder Robert Zubrin, retired NASA engineer Tony Muscatello and business analyst Kent Nebergall.

"We use Starship to deliver a robotic expedition that has already examined thousands of samples on Mars, gathered from hundreds of kilometers away by helicopters, and tens of kilometers away gathered by rovers, and then we land the crew to do follow-up exploration, including drilling in well-characterized sites to bring up water and see what the life on Mars is," he said during an Aug. 8 session.
