  2. Very sudden. And very hard to shoot down. And you can keep BFRs in a geosynchronous orbit, ready to drop down on a spot. SYOT(Start your own thread)
  3. Balloon mission to Eve atmosphere. Use KAS tethers to lower a capsule to the surface.
  4. kiiiiiiinG digeeest oooooooooooooooooooon farady sdasnd
  5. Invasions(a drop ship)? Sure, it wouldn't be useful in day to day things, but they could get a huge defense contract.
  6. 'it was visually apparent that he had no further interest in cooperating with the spaceflight program'.
  7. 1 hour transport of 150 tons anywhere for less than 20 million?
  8. for the military though... So? With a smaller crew, the life support could last that long. The why are they devoting their employees to it? Even if it costs 10 times more than estimated, it will still be more efficient then any other rocket.
  9. Mars is pretty exotic. Also, its supposedly only going to be 500,000 dollars, so lots of people can go if they sell all their stuff and save up money for years.

SpaceX controls the majority of the launch market. He should. It allows him to do audacious things instead of backing away.
  15. Not my point. He could also have made normal, gas powered cars. We're getting kind of off topic. I think Mars One is not going to work.
  16. Teslas do function. So does Solarcity. And PayPal. For asteroids yes, but not for global warming, supervolcanos, war, ect.
  17. He could also use the boring company(that's the actual name) to drill for oil.
  18. Isaac Asimov and Artur C Clarke were completely realistic in expecting a spacefaring civilization. It was just political problems.
  19. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnold_J._Toynbee#Challenge_and_response
  20. He wants to improve life on Earth as well via clean cars, hyperloop, tunnels, AI, and solar panels.
