Even Musk is multinational, mother is Canadian and Musk himself was born in South Africa. Many of those who work for him are not from United States.

My point is this is great for everyone on this here rock wasn't trying to insult just pointing out how good the man is for humanity.
-
Has nothing to do with where he was born. Ingenuity is fostered in an environment that encourages it, welcomes it and doesn't stunt it with governmental burdens. FREEDOM. His success started in the United States of America...not because we are "better", but because we are FREE.

Why don't we get to see the fairing attempt live? With no booster landing its getting routine (and dare I say... boring...). We need some extra action.
-
Seeing the initial booster landing failures turned out to be SO beneficial, because it made people aware of how difficult it is, and made it 10 times more exciting when it succeeded. This could do the same. Lets all be excited the first time we see it live after seeing failures.
-
Maybe they'll release another "bloopers" video once they successfully retrieve the fairing. Though I believe
@elonmusk was the one who actually edited together this wonderful masterpiece:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvim4rsNHkQ …

i think the answer is all of the above! we have already colonised a space station. For me the next step is a bigger better station near the moon. Then a based on the moon......then on to mars.....then to other places!
-
I tend to agree! But I only have time to talk about one so I wanted to gauge where the public imagination is. Its always Mars. It's funny; Mars is the only place in the entire Universe where we have a word for the non-existent indigenous people.
-
That's actually not true. While Martian is definitely the most well known, there are others, such as Jovian for Jupiter and Venusian/Venerian for Venus. That being said, we probably tend to focus on Mars due its similarity to Earth. Makes it easier to suspend our disbelief.
-
That is true! I can't believe I didn't think of these. However, in pop culture/general public I'd be surprised if most people have heard the other terms
