I do not fault Mr. Musk for the ambition. I do think he is doing most of it right, at least from a tech standpoint.
But in getting to space — EVERYTHING must go perfectly.
Every time.
And the main good news is that no human lives were aboard that capsule.
But expect delays now — certainly in his rumored IPO for the venture, and likely even in the Moon to Mars initiatives.
As I’ve said repeatedly, contra to his “techie-ethos” we simply cannot afford to lose human lives in space, due to “going too fast, and breaking things”.
And now, almost trivially, he has again broken the feeds of the NASA remote code — out of his X-itter social media site. Those are his partners in space — the ones who drive his engagement for any future IPO dream at SpaceX. Hilarious.
And, whilst speaking of the Xitter site, he is facing advertising walk-aways — from Apple, IBM and Microsoft, among others… due to his odious views.
He really lacks even a scintilla of emotional intelligence.
Out.
