It has been described as 'the most powerful operational rocket in the world by a factor of two.

Unless I am mistaken Mr Musk is not a human:) or....his ambition will end with troubles in one of developed projects: Tesla, Hyperloop and/or Rockets.
My son told me that new Tesla 3 ( which I was about to order for our secondary residence) was not vastly tested like other new cars launched by big carmakers.
Instead of that Elon Musk proposed to the staff the first delivery with a big discount.
Clever, but not fully reliable. The junk bonds to rise the capital of the company is for me another risky factor of his ambitious business.
I will postpone my order and will keep my BMW 3 series.

He's from Pretoria, South Africa (South African-born Canadian-American business magnate, investor, engineer, and inventor).

Or we go along with him in any one or all his projects, or we don't. :b

The guy commands respect for his innovative ideas and ambitions. His reputation is on the line each day that we use one of his ideas in practice.
So far nobody met any alien for driving a Tesla. That might change with that rocket though, we'll see. :b

Yes, I mentioned the subsidies for the Model 3, which it is us who @ the end contribute for the development with our taxes paid to our leaders.
Without us Tesla wouldn't exist, and same for the next trip to Mars.
The money always come from somewhere, someone who uses it in our behalf...graciousness of our paycheques.
If it benefits all of us, great. If it benefits only the ones playing with everyone else's money, no good.

There is a world economic's system in place, run by world economic experts. It's a model system with couple flaws since its conception.
It's like an audio system; it requires updates and fine-tuning to work in sync and in harmony with the rest of the components...room, listener's ears, taste in music, cable connections and mathematics.

Elon Musk is young (46), hardworking (doesn't sit on his ass all day long), very busy, conscientious, protective of his family's interests and reputation, respectuous of his friends and collaborators and workers, ...he's an avant-gardiste, a poet of technological advancement. He's from the same planet you and I are coming from.
He lives today for the future...he's an active part of it. We might criticize him and we have the right to. But he's human, I can assure you.
He's not here to rule the planet, he's here to improve it. And the planet's improvement it sure needs it.

That rocket, that is something else, from a future visionary. @ the end of the fast tunnel of future human transportation, it's all good, very very good.
The tools to get there they just need some intelligent human touches; we can't blame him for other's mistakes, for a world economic system created by flawed humans. If all the world's leaders were flawless there wouldn't be all the flaws in the world today, true that? :b

If I was asked who I'd like to be, I'd say me, or maybe Elon Musk. Hey, he's much better than many pursuing much worst world's ventures.
He cares about people, about humanity, about his family, children, employees. That's how overall I seize it, his rocket to Mars included.
