F2Pool co-founder Wang Chun: The Mars flyby mission will advance the process of "multi-planetary survival".

On May 23, CoinFeed reported that Wang Chun, co-founder of F2Pool, published an article on the X platform detailing the core motivation for undertaking the first manned Mars flyby mission aboard SpaceX's Starship. He clearly stated that he places Mars above the Moon, personally driving the progress towards multi-planetary survival for humanity. Wang Chun stated that the debut of Starship V3 brings humanity one step closer to multi-planetary survival. Looking back at the Fram2 training, besides the Dragon spacecraft, the team's most discussed topic was the reliability of landing on Phobos, highlighting their technological focus on the Martian system. Although Musk announced three months ago that SpaceX would shift its focus to the Moon and believed that AI data centers could be a viable path to commercialization in space, Wang Chun insisted that the target must be Mars, not the Moon. He frankly admitted that he was uncertain whether humans could land on Mars within this generation's lifespan, and therefore hoped to personally drive this process.
