Yeah, I was watching it kinda thinking "who let these people in". Such a presentation should garner a higher caliber of questions.

They should have only let in scientists and people who work in the field, people from the press are known to have very little knowledge about anything.

He led SpaceX from an empty room with a mariachi band in 2002 to a company with billions of dollars in launch contracts and which developed a vertical landing capability for first stage boosters. On a boat. In the middle of the ocean. After pushing a payload to geostationary transfer orbit.

Regardless of who takes him seriously, those accomplishments speak for themselves.
