Great story, I read about it.
BTW, when I read government forms, I'm thinking, is this written by some former acid head turned government accountant/lawyer?
Even the simplest forms which should be 1 page, are 40 pages, convoluted, overly complicated and disjointed. I read government tax forms, and I want to put a match to them. I'm convinced, they just pull these scams out of their hats, and concoct their formulas out of thin air, all of which just happen to benefit government. Then you're forced to sign, under threat of extreme penalty and prison. lol...
Musk expects failures, since it's a part of learning and innovating and moving forward. He's more likely to punish someone that sits on dead-center and won't move because of fear.
Victory favors the bold, and NASA isn't well known for bold, these days.
