Musk is absolutely bloody amazing, solar panels that look like roof tiles., underground motorways, driver less cars and lorries, reusable space rockets, battery tech to store wind/solar power to use when no generation, etc. This one man will do the human race and our poor over exploited planet more good than all the Trumps, Tories, Royals and robbers that presently run the world - put together.

If you wrote that post today you'd include flamethrowers too...

Would love to be out there for it.

I was lucky enough to be in Orlando in May when there was a SpaceX launch. I rented a convertible Mustang and drove out to the Space Coast, watching it from Cocoa Beach pier with a beer (just the one, officer). I've had worse days.

I can think of far worse ways to pass the time than that - very jealous.

Feels like it may well scrub for today and try again tomorrow.
