We have Ariane space, rocket lab, blue origin.

We need more than one musk. Unfortunately that’s like one in a century.



I see you mistyped Shotwell.


she is good too. but musk did 0->1 work. She did everything else


Even Musk isn't Musk anymore.


He does not have a personally consistent track record but his company SpaceX seems to be executing just as good if not even better than it ever has.


It’s all good until he has his Spacex Cybertruck moment.


People have been waiting for that like forever. It may happen, it may not. I spoke to multiple SpaceX employees post Musk twitter and they are as committed as ever with an insane amount of dedication to the cause...so if he does not lose his top talent, the likelihood of screwups like what you are describing seem small.


He’s our generation’s Howard Hughes. One Ket trip away from becoming a recluse, shuffling around with kleenex boxes for slippers muttering about being unclean and denouncing conspiracies against him.


> One Ket trip away from becoming a recluse

This was literally debunked by nasa but I’m so glad HN is so captured by anti musk narratives it’s impossible to post anything good about him with getting downvoted.

Pretty sad state of affairs.


Musk almost bankrupted both SpaceX and Tesla, He was more lucky than good.
