Send Humans to Mars

Spaceflight Insider has a really good technical writeup on how we're going to finally move humanity off this rock!

Elon Musk shows off Interplanetary Transport System In a presentation akin from something out of science fiction, Elon Musk, founder and CEO of SpaceX, announced the Interplanetary Transport System.

"The cost of moving to Mars could ultimately drop below $100,000"
-Elon Musk

"[Expanding humanity to Mars] would be the most inspiring thing that I could imagine. Life needs to be more than about solving problems every day. You need to wake up and be excited about the future, be inspired, and want to live."
-Elon Musk
