Summary
Elon Musk wrote a 16-page article that described a plan to reduce the cost to bring one person to Mars down to $100,000.Elon Musk has a ballpark assumption that allocating one-ton of mass is enough for the passenger, supplies, and luggage.Elon sees the following key elements to lower the costs to Mars.Most of the improvement would come from full reusability somewhere between 100 to 500 times cheaper. SpaceX is on the way to making a fully reusable Super Heavy Starship.Refilling the fuel for rockets in orbit will lower the costs by about 5 times.Making the fuel on Mars will enable the rockets to be sent back.
