After a long wait, fans are finally set to experience a large-scale Sci-Fi open world title. The countdown to the Starfield launch has begun. Undoubtedly, the forthcoming Bethesda giant is among the most talked about titles already before its launch. Not just the gamers, the open world space exploration is being awaited by astronomy lovers beyond the community. Talking about space explorers, Elon Musk’s prediction has been questioned by Starfield’s latest revelation. 

The race to Mars is running prominently in the real world. While various government space organizations have shown interest in taking the man to the planet Mars, Elon Musk’s SpaceX already has a year planned for the same. But Bethesda, with their latest gameplay detail reveal, might spoil the Elon Musk Mars mission projection. According to the virtual Mars race in Starfield, SpaceX chief might have overestimated their potential of reaching the planet.

The developers have constantly emphasized the realistic approach of Starfield toward its open world. The game’s detailing is credited to a lot of research and study. Moreover, the game does not take factual astronomy for granted and looks to imbibe it in the narrative of the game. As a result, science fiction looks like a promising and accurate representation of interstellar space. In their latest Instagram post, the developers shared a timeline of human civilization’s inception on various planets. The title predicts humans to have started a civilization on Mars by 2100.

As intriguing as the prediction sounds, it is in disagreement with the SpaceX chief. Elon Musk is an enthusiastic astronomical passenger himself and has always expressed his interest in going to Mars. In fact, the latter had a target year to achieve the feat. And it is not 2100. Almost a year back, a user asked the entrepreneur about his plans for Mars. “2029“, he had replied, making a bold prediction for the Mars human civilization. Here’s the Twitter thread from the interaction.

Well, it seems like Bethesda’s virtual space programs are in disagreement with the man. It is important to understand that Starfield does not make a prediction about astronomical advancement without prior research. What makes it more interesting is to research Starfield, the developers’ team had a major collaboration with SpaceX! Quite ironic right?
