My opinion is that Elon will get burned by his battery investment when hydrogen fuel cell technology beats him.

NASA’s long range plan is to be out at the asteroids and Mars within 20 to 25 years.

I’m pretty sure SpaceX will beat them to it.

I'll bet Elon misses fewer meals than I did in 2008, regardless of how his battery investment does.

LOL! Probably, since Elon has the lyin’ king’s blessings. When the lyin’ king visited KSC several years ago, they landed at the SLF and convoyed straight to Elon’s welcoming arms. All the riffraff KSC/CCAFS workers were instructed to remain inside during the convoy transit. Kinda messed up my regularly scheduled smoke break. As for the battery plant, it’ll provide some temp employment for the construction trades for a while then some more for the plant ops until the H cells become viable. Knowing how Elon works, he’ll somehow manage to survive that and maybe convert the plant to produce H cells.
