Exclusive Robert Zubrin Interview Part 3: Will Elon Musk lead us into the future?

Welcome to Episode 9 of What about it!? In DEPTH

I sat down with Robert Zubrin - Scientist, Engineer, Inventor & President of the Mars Society - to have a talk about Elon Musk, SpaceX and the future of humanity. Robert Zubrin was able to provide me with most interesting answers and gave insights into what he learned while working and talking with SpaceX's Elon Musk

Since the interview took a little longer, I have decided, to separate it into three different parts. This is the final Part and the two other Parts are available here:
