This is a clip from a 60 Minutes interview. The amount of passion and determination in this clip, is absolutely breathtaking. http://youtu.be/H3u0IIQj6FY?t=11m13s

The fact that he chokes up and finds it difficult that Neil Armstrong has testified against his work makes him so human and makes me respect him so much more.
I really hope he gets an apology from Neil Armstrong and other critics if (when) SpaceX actually delivers on its promises. It must be very tough to even have your heroes root against you, and like you say it shows a lot about what you stand for.
The sad reality is that Neil Armstrong will probably die before SpaceX does anything seriously significant, if it does. He's 81 now.
SpaceX Dragon becoming the only US means of successfully delivering cargo to the ISS and moving the US away from dependence on Russia was not seriously significant?
Does anyone else somehow get the idea that Elon Musk never gets tired?
He doesn't have time to be tired. He's making electric cars and spaceships.
Don't forget that he's also trying to power things with the sun!

A future built by Musk, quite frankly, sounds awesome.

Elon Musk doesn't get tired. Fatigue gets elonmusked.
