I don't think so, Have you seen the movie "Marshan"?
In that movie, he was left there alone because his companion thought he was dead after the accident.
with enough knowledge to live on Mars, he still struggling to make himself survive for a few years.

And out of nowhere, they gonna tell us to move 1 Million people to mars? That's insane.
I mean, how they gonna do that? even in my own imagination, I cannot see a hundred people living comfortably there.
also the movie is far from reality, right? so that means he was just dreaming all along.

But Musk has a different need for the nukes than he is telling everyone. He is in the process of building this... https://newatlas.com/orion-project-atom-bomb-spaceship/49454/.

in fact, your question is only a technical matter,
and surely ELON had thought about it long before he planned a colony on Mars.

no, ELON has already tweeted that he really wants to detonate Nuclear Bombs on Mars (the NUKE MARS project)
so, that Mars can become a place to live, you can see it on google about what he plans to make a colony on MARS,
and not just as a human transport service to MARS.

He said first spaceship with humans will land on Mars in 2025 and he will move atleast millions before he leave to mars.

There are people who have tons of money but don't know what to do with that,those kind of people were attracted by Elon Musk because its kind of business to make billions or trillions.

In 5 years i don't think so. Perhaps you mean the first humans ever stepping on Mars, and perhaps they could set up a small base, but that is still far away from the plan of moving a million...

How would humans develop and adapt to the lower gravity for long periods? Also living indoors, possibly underground years and decades, rarely ever going out in full space like suits? And what kind of people would want to live there and even pay for the ticket themselves? How would they earn their living there?

No its not impossible, but i don't think it will be that big. Living on Mars won't be too different than living in a space station. And if a serious terraforming project ever starts, it would take centuries to develop.

Remember, Elon's intention is only to provide the transport service, he expects the people that goes there to solve the rest. He is thinking the Railroad conquest of the west era, he wants to build the railroad and operate the trains and stations, nothing more. He doesn't even want to go there himself.

Having the capacity to move a million, is possible, but i doubt the demand would come. What could possibly drive that many humans to move there? Oh and 40 minutes lag, you are not going to like the internet much...

But perhaps that business will finance SpaceX to then build a (proper) Space Station (with artificial gravity, such as O'neil tube or such).

Until now this is just a mission from Private company called Space X and this is only for making money not to find anything new to get support from government.

That's a great news!!! It is possible to move people from earth to mars since but i don't think that the mission to make a new civilization in Mars will take on 2025 since there are a lot of planning, research and tests and especially money since this is a very huge projects of Elon Musk himself and there's no doubt that government will be have a participation in this project.

He got big amount of money and people will help him if money is the only thing needed to make it possible.

People can live in mars with the techology we have but can we make it as our home to live permanently?

We all are going to live with the mask on us forever in Mars?

I think this was possible but requires big amount of money. This was great to hear and is possible because of our new technologies. This wasn't a sci-fiction story today, many articles are stating that humans can able to live to Mars and this might happen in the next five years. However, a lot of things should be consider, like how sure that Mars can able to sustain life for Earthlings.

I think this is entirely possible but not in the next five years. We need more time, maybe 20 to 30 years.

Here's a cool interview of Elon Musk by Tim Dodd from Everyday Astronaut.

Elon Musk is just the most impressive person alive. He is a true visionary. He might not be the most intelligent but he knows how to lead intelligent people.
There are many reasons why Elon would fail. I'm quite sure we'll not be in Mars in 2025. Capital would be a big issue. But sooner or later this man would lead us to Mars.
No government agency would ever match the creativity of the free thinkers.

Too bad Musk doesn't funnel his funds into Christianity. All people die, but they will all be raised in the resurrection. True Christians will rise to everlasting life in Heaven. The others will rise to everlasting destruction in Hell.

I wonder where Musk is headed.

Nobody knows how long it will take for Jesus to return and call the people out of their graves. But even a life of 10,000 years isn't worth losing eternity in Heaven. So, if science figures out how to let us live to 500, we still lose if we don't have Jesus salvation.

The whole Mars idea is simply a distraction from life.

I really admire the dedication of this self made millionaire. I  think Musk, inspire more  youth with his dreams and projects. He is a futurist,a great  visionary. His project putting a person on Mars is remarkable  and I believe he can do  it. Just give more time with this man and we will witness what he can achieve, more than what we expect, I believe.

OH MY GAWD,he is supposed to make people live there rather than sending alone.

Wait a minute here...

I know Musk was talking about sending people to Mars, but was that live people?

Chances of surviving in the Mars is really low,even with the most developed technologies present at the moment.

And reaching Mars also the big issue before talking about round trip from Earth to Mars.

Yeah! I mean, most people die, and their grave is the tiny space that they occupy for the rest of Earth's existence. Or maybe it's even the smaller space of the urn (cremation). But think of having all of space as your tomb.

It seems elon musk is really serious in getting people into space. Can't help but admire this guy's vision and dedication. I just watched cosmos last night and i imagine how carl sagan would have reacted to what elon is doing and achieving right now. If only there were more of this guy in the world today.

I watched that movie few times and the name of movie is "Passengers" but it is a romantic drama not the movie let us know about anything about the space.

I believe this will happen, Elon Musk is always trying to realize what is in his mind, and it has been proven that all his creation is needed by modern humans like Paypal.

I always follow the news about Elon Musk on his personal Twitter, and I really admire his thoughts, humans living on Mars will not be fiction story anymore in the future.
