If that's the case, I hope his toxic seed never reenters ANY atphmosphere...

Is he Catholic?

Because he’s a visionary who’s created massive value, maybe some of his kids will inherit that same spark.

...or not. There are all sorts of reasons some people excel in certain areas while others don't.

Musk is the first of the genetically engineered supermen, he will eventually send his superseed into space.

Hence the title “Space Seed.”

Love him or hate him, it's a good thing for the world that he has as many kids as possible.

whatever

Musk is a trust fund con-man who has failed his way in every part of life.

You support visions and value that require massive taxpayer subsidies?

To the last, I will grapple with thee... from Hell's heart, I stab at thee! For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee!

How exactly does Elon Musk have “good genes”? He’s an autistic nepo-baby edgelord.

He knows how to talk things up but most of the things that are attributed to Musk is his overpromises and what workers do while he tweets nonsense on twitter all day i hope one day workers will take back their accomplishments from those that extract from them. Lots of his wealth come from subsidies and carbon credit sales, the latest fraud he tried to perpetuate on the Canadian government shows this trend.

Best Star Trek movie of all time.

Indeed. ST IV & ST VI were also solid films. First Contact was the best of the TNG films. Don't get me started on the Kelvin time line Treks.

I couldn’t agree with you more! I’m not a hardcore Trekkie. I’m more of a Star Wars fan. Also, I haven’t seen an episode of a Trek TV show in at least three decades. But I love the concept of Star Trek and enjoy the movies.

Wrath of Khan is my favorite Trek movie of all time. The Undiscovered Country is my second favorite, The Voyage Home my third favorite, and First Contact is No. 4. The Motion Picture and The Search for Spock are good. The Final Frontier is deeply flawed but fascinating because it predicted the rise of Al-Qaeda and ISIS in ways that nobody could have imagined, so it deserves a lot of credit for that. Generations and Nemesis are bad but watchable. I hated Insurrection and the 2009 reboot. Never saw Into Darkness or Beyond.

NASA has always had this problem.

Some people still support the work they do and the projects they fund. Might seem weird to some, but it's true.

But @aociswundumho thinks taxation is evil and the government shouldn’t exist.

It’s weird that he supports visionaries who use massive amounts of taxation to support themselves.

For sure.

Without Musk we would still be paying Russia for flights to space. The best selling car on the planet would not be electric. Brave astronauts would be trapped on the ISS for years while pop stars jetted to space for fun. Parts of Australia would still suffer massive power fluctuations and outages.

That is the power of a small amount of tax dollars. It's really actually pretty awesome.

Trump calls Elon Musk by wrong name as his biographer says the candidate is 'hyper-aware' voters are doubting his mental acuity

Good genes

You do know who we are talking about, right?

If He's trying to avoid a large Federal Estate tax, He needs thousands more.

I don’t consider public investment to be a problem especially when the public benefits.

Neither you nor I can borrow against our NASA stock to pay off baby mamas or buy ketamine.

But Elon can borrow against his company stock - propped up by taxpayer subsidies - for those things.

That guy who runs Tesler.

Yes, NASA gives these subsidies to people like Musk. Using tax payer money to prop up people like Musk and companies like Boeing.

Has always been a problem. The fastest way to stop it would be to cut funding.

He’s a nepo baby who is excellent at attaining government funding.

People have been begging governments and liberals for many years to stop funding this guy. Ukraine buys his satellites, NASA buys his rockets and space capsules, Australia buys his batteries and California liberals buy his cars.

All of these people are responsible for Musk's power - we've been calling him out for at least a decade, but these rich assholes just keep giving him money, and they just won't stop.

Good genes. The opposite of idiocracy. A geniocracy.

OTOH, even the best genes are not going to make up for not having a father around. Even if that father is Elon Musk who is probably not winning any World's Greatest Dad awards. I think naming your kid Romulus or X is an automatic disqualifier for that.

Behold our new overman!

I can’t speak for individuals who may use Twitter or buy Teslas … which does not appear to be limited to “California liberals” based on the number of Tesla vehicles (including cyber trucks) here in mid-Missouri.

But, with regard to government agencies (generally) and NASA (specifically), agencies have always been caught between inventing the wheel (so to speak) and buying a wheel (or parts to do so) from the private market under pressure to “spend tax dollars wisely and judiciously.”

The trouble is not necessarily agencies turning to the private sector to provide it with goods or services, but when there is a lack of private suppliers such that the agency is beholden to the private market supplier and has no alternative (including fully in-house sourcing).

I mean if Staples sells pencils to NASA, then Staples can use the profit from that sale as it sees fit. NASA can buy pencils from other sources and Staples can sell pencils to others that need them.

That is not true - or does not scale - for launch vehicles … either from the agency’s perspective or the private marketplace’s perspective.
