Description
Elon Musk is a trillionaire (or damn close). Is he the devil? A genius? Just a goofy rich guy? I'm not a scientist or a Musk stan, but as a lifelong space nerd, I break down why his wealth makes total sense — thanks to SpaceX revolutionizing rocket launches.
We talk:
Why reusability changed everything (Falcon 9 landings, Starship iteration)
SpaceX's insane dominance: ~50-85% of global/US payload to orbit
Musk's flaws: timelines, personal life, DOGE execution, cage fights on Twitter
Debunking common conspiracy nonsense about spaceflight
No corporate fluff. Just a real talk from a guy who loves rockets and calls it like he sees it.
If you think space is fake or all billionaires are evil... this one's for you. Think hard.
