Elon Musk’s wants to use the biggest rocket SpaceX has ever built to ferry humans around the globe, promising passengers the ability to get anywhere on Earth in under an hour. If all goes according to plan it would rely on the same rocket the company is currently building to take humans to Mars. It would turn a nearly 15-hour flight from Shanghai to New York on a conventional airliner into just a 39-minute trip. It sounds crazy, but it is “definitely happening,” according to the President and Chief Operating Officer at SpaceX, Gwynne Shotwell. “Oh no, it’s definitely going to happen,” she replied.
