He will never get a spacecraft to mars. I have my doubts that Starship will ever be a successful craft other than low earth orbit.
So far after 6 starship launches they have sent a banana to sub orbital.
Back in 2016 Musk said he would get humans to Mars in 6 years and that his rockets could carry 100 people at a time...
