Elon Musk wants to put humans on the Mars in seven years but Richard Branson says he and fellow space-focused billionaire Jeff Bezos remain focused on the Earth.

"Elon is absolutely fixated on going to Mars and I think it's his life mission," Branson said on "Squawk Box" on Wednesday. "Jeff and ourselves [at the Virgin Group] are more interested in how we can use space to benefit the Earth."
