It's been a dream of humans to set foot on Mars for a very long time and for about 50 years it has been advertised as being right around the corner. So if you had to guess today, what exact year will have the first humans land on Mars?

Whenever Elon Musk finally makes it happen.

Yeah I can't see anyone beating Elon there, but he has a tendency to fall behind. Let's go 2027!

2038. If not by then maybe for the 100th anniversary of the moon landings.

The 2026-27 transfer window seems like a good bet.

Sure I'll go with that one too.

At least that'd be before NASA lands on Mars  :P

(2028 isn't in a transfer window)

Early 2025 could happen.
