Well, I want to summarize how the inventor Elon Musk compared with Henry Ford - for his contribution to automotive, Howard Hughes - for the development of Sky and Space, with Thomas Edison - for the ability to turn the invention into a large-scale business, which is called "enterprise". And of course, with Steve Jobs - for the ability to turn the existing industry and for centuries to create a fundamentally new for everyone something.
And despite the age of 45 years Ilon continues to amaze with their new, albeit sometimes not successful, but further refined inventions, both on the ground and in space.
