Maye Musk Reflects on Elon's Mars Ambitions and Her Lifelong Reinvention

In an interview on Yahoo Finance’s Power Players podcast with Brian Sozzi, author and international supermodel Maye Musk discussed her son Elon Musk’s long-term vision of establishing a human settlement on Mars, remarking that he genuinely aspires to live in a Martian city in the coming decades.
Musk recounted how early conversations surrounding satellite deployment—which later materialized into SpaceX's ($SPCX) Starlink constellation—stemmed from a mission to ensure global connectivity during remote emergencies. She also addressed the public scrutiny directed at Elon, noting her frequent defenses of him on X while highlighting the family's shared focus on high-impact technology ventures across Tesla ($TSLA), SpaceX, Neuralink, and PayPal ($PYPL).
The interview coincided with the release of her memoir, "Timeless: The Art of Reinvention and Resilience at Any Age," which details her journey raising three children as a single mother in South Africa, building a private dietetics practice, and achieving late-career fashion milestones—including becoming a CoverGirl ambassador at 69 and a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover model at 74.
