Elon Musk has a ticket to ride... and I'm sure he cares!
The TESLA/PAYPAL/SPACE-X billionaire - whos rockets are literally carrying US SPACE TRAVEL right now... just booked a ticket to space on SIR RICHARD BRANSON'S VIRGIN GALACTIC spaceship!
The billionaire real-life TONY STARK reportedly plunked down the $10k deposit after hanging with Branson over the weekend in New Mexico, home of Spaceport USA... where Virgin Galactic flights originate. Musk and Branson reportedly hung the morning of Branson's launch on Sunday and news of the SpaceX wizkid's flight plans emerged late day Monday.
The mainstream media including the jaded FOX NEWS has tried to spin some sort of "billionaire rivalry" when it comes to private space travel, but the Musk/Branson alliance seems to bring that theory to its knees. Do Branson and Musk have some sort of long-term plan in place which could lead to a partnership between Virgin Galactic and SpaceX? Have Branson and Musk teamed up to stop the emerging forces of the JEFF BEZOS, Amazon/Washington Post guru who also owns his own space-flight company, BLUE ORIGIN?
What does all of this mean??!
We're all going to find out... because this is the most fascinating kickoff to the new space-age ever!
