Just as SpaceX CEO Elon Musk
prepared for the "most difficult launch" of his rocket company with
Falcon Heavy rocket, the space-enthusiast changed his display picture on
Twitter from an alcoholic monkey to that of an astronaut sipping hot
coffee on Mars.
The picture uploaded on Monday shows an
astronaut, leaning against what looks like the iconic red Tesla sipping
steamy coffee and looking into the infinite space while on the red
planet.
"On Mars, I like to drink my coffee in this mug," wrote
Musk revealing his space plans in a tweet that also carried a link to
his SpaceX store.
In what seemed like more of an advertisement
for SpaceX merchandise, the link directs users to a $15 worth of "Occupy
Mars 'Heat Sensitive' Terraforming Mug", which is currently out of
stock on the site.
"Colonizing Mars one mug at a time!" Musk tweeted later while replying to a user.
While
some users kept interacting with Musk over the Falcon Heavy rocket
launch, some others took a jibe at his electric vehicle company Tesla's
inconsistent finances.
"When u plug your merch (merchandise) to fund your project," a user wrote.
Musk
tweeted about his on-Mars coffee plans as a reply to his one of own
tweets that he posted on June 24 -- a picture saying "Occupy Mars".
Monday
night, Musk's Falcon Heavy rocket fired up into the space from a launch
pad in Florida, carrying a bunch of 24 experimental satellites that are
intended to be safely delivered into three different drop off points in
the orbit as planned.
For this mission, the US Department of Defence is a key customer that SpaceX relied on for the launch contract.
