**Astronaut Man** (0:00)
Latest interview of Elon Musk. Well, thank you, Gwen. Gwen Shaw has been an incredible partner, and was one of the first people to join the company. And thank you, Gwen. Oh, she's in New York, of course. Where is he?
And, yeah, it is certainly hard to believe that a little company that started in a warehouse in El Segundo.
Is now going public with the largest IPO ever. And let me tell you, if people had told me this was going to happen, I was like, man, you must be smoking some really good crack, because I think this company is going to fail. I mean, I gave SpaceX less than a 10% chance of succeeding at all, to be clear. In fact, I told people this. I said, look, we're probably going to fail, but we should give it a try, because if we don't, if there's not a new company that enters space, we will never be a truly space-bearing civilization. The other aerospace companies, they build good rockets and everything. They were simply not pursuing the technology that's necessary to make life multi-planetary, to make Star Trek, to make the exciting futures that we've read about real. And that's what SpaceX is all about. It's to take the fiction out of science fiction. And create an exciting, inspiring future for everyone. We want to be able to take anyone who wants to go to the moon, anyone who wants to go to Mars, or anywhere in the solar system, and maybe beyond the solar system at some point, we want to be able to take you there. Not just a few astronauts, I mean literally you. If you watch, whoever you are watching this, SpaceX wants to be able to take you to the moon, take you to Mars, and ultimately beyond. And I'm confident at this point that with the incredible team that we have here at NASA, that we will do that for you.
I always think about this, there are always problems on earth. There are always problems on earth, there are always things that we wish to be better, that we want to solve here on earth, and we should solve them.
Thanks for listening. See you in the next episode.
