I LOVE his projects, I’m a fanboy.

That SINGLE photo of him with the joint..?

He went from brash idealist to unsteady pothead faster than the model S.

I think people are now going to splash that onto his EVERY new project.

Fuel tanks no where near big enough. Off by close to an order of magnitude.

Maybe he's planning to use Red Mercury as a fuel.

I’m willing to wager heavily that among the engineers, the “F” doesn’t really stand for “Falcon”.

The weight of those windows, and the risk they pose of leaks, is completely out of line with reality.

What we need is a continuous propulsion system and I think the trip will be weeks not months.

This image and it’s captions are enough to prove to me that we are no where near ready for this trip.

And the berths convert so that people can shack up ? Wow, he thought of everything.

And the hydroponics is for morale more than food. And there is plenty of space for solar panels which he thinks are all we need to be happy on Mars.

I love how calling a space the hydroponics lab makes marijuana plants that grow here on earth grow inside the space ship and help sustain the crew even though there isnt a single solitary marijuana plant on Mars.
