The billionaire entrepreneur, Elton Musk, has revealed proposals for one of his most ambitious projects to date - intercontinental rocket flights for passengers that will take only half an hour, or less.

He proposed that BFR, which stands for 'Big F****** Rocket' will be able to fly to most places on earth in less than 30 minutes, with the cost roughly equivalent to an economy flight on a passenger jet.

The reusable rockets would apparently have a maximum speed of 27,000km per hour (16,777 mph), although earth flights would travel at just over 7,000mph, allowing flights of thousands of miles in as little as 22 minutes ---how remarkable is that!

Musk also says that the rocket will be able to travel to Mars, and is due to be launched for the first time in 2022 before colonizing the planet from 2024.

SpaceX claimed that the rocket will be able to fly from Hong Kong to Singapore in 22 minutes, New York to London in 29 minutes, and Sydney to London in 51 minutes. They later added that the cost per seat should be about the same as full fare economy in an aircraft.

An animated video released by SpaceX shows passengers embarking on the rocket by taking boats to floating launchpads. Once in orbit, the spacecraft would split from its booster and vertically land on a launchpad in another city. By re-using rockets, Musk plans to dramatically bring down the cost of travel.

This means of travel would be, by far, the fastest..

Very Innovating.

Yeah
