Why Does Elon Musk Want To Nuke Mars?

Elon Musk wants to ignite nuclear bombs at Mars’ poles with the ambition of terraforming the planet, making the Red Planet liveable for humans.

The fast method is to release thermonuclear weapons over the poles according to Musk that could make Mars habitable for settlers by heating it with greenhouse gases.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has designed two T-shirts to promote his idea to drop nuclear weapons on Mars. Musk revealed the theory of nuking Mars recently which, according to him, will transform the exterior of the planet liveable for human beings.

The billionaire CEO was also spotted wearing the T-shirt in the first look of his upcoming appearance on Saturday Night Live. SNL shared an image of Musk in the t-shirt on Twitter.

Nuking Mars is the quickest way to melt martian ice is to detonate nuclear weapons above the poles which would release enough energy to melt them.

There is a caveat, though: there is simply not enough CO2 to kick-start a global warming.
