I love his answer… “Never. I don’t ever give up. I’d have to be dead or completely incapacitated.”

Elon Musk breaks down talking about his heroes testifying against him: "When something is important enough, you do it even though it's not in your favor." Four years after starting SpaceX, Musk rolled out his first rocket, an unmanned booster called Falcon 1. The first three test flights failed to reach orbit. The interviewer asks: "When you had that third failure in a row, did you think 'I need to pack this in'?" Elon responds: "Never." "Why not?" "I don't ever give up. I'd have to be dead or completely incapacitated." The fourth launch worked. But SpaceX's lack of experience bothered some NASA legends, including Apollo astronauts Neil Armstrong and Gene Cernan, who testified to Congress that the push to commercialize space could compromise safety. The interviewer tells Elon: "There are American heroes who don't like this idea. Neil Armstrong and Gene Cernan have both testified against commercial spaceflight in the way that you're developing it. What do you think of that?" Elon pauses. His voice breaks. "I was very sad to see that. Because those guys are... those guys are heroes of mine. So it's really tough. I wish they would come and visit and see the hardware we're doing here. I think that would change their mind." The interviewer presses: "They inspired you to do this, didn't they?" "Yes." "And to see them casting stones in your direction..." Elon, visibly emotional: "It's difficult." "Did you expect them to cheer you on?" "I was hoping they would." The interviewer asks: "What are you trying to prove to them?" Elon responds: "What I'm trying to do is make a significant difference in spaceflight and help make spaceflight accessible to almost anyone. I would hope for as much support in that direction as we can receive."

@InfiniteEmf @teslaownersSV I’ve seen this too. Then, have to designate places for them that aren’t in the way of children getting to school. Maybe is one solution?

I had occasion to speak with a young man of 28 years who had just come in from a decade on the streets. He'd gotten himself cleaned up, got housing and was working a full-time job. In the course of our conversion I asked him, "If there were a way to offer the homeless a guaranteed path off of the streets and into a constructive lifestyle, how many would take it?" This young man, based on his own personal experience on the streets, opined that he would be surprised if even 10% took the deal. The thing about homelessness is that the lifestyle demands no accountability from anyone to anyone, and people are willing to trade everything to be able to live a life — even a crappy one — where nobody's in their grill demanding accountability. Ever.

Elon Musk: “The homeless industrial complex is really dark… The network of NGOs should be called, the drug zombie farmers… The ‘charities’ get money proportionate to the number of ‘homeless’… so their incentive structure is to maximize the number…”

A Mount Sinai scientist says the new headlights being used in America are dangerous. Older headlights were softer and easier on the eyes. Now drivers are getting blasted with harsh bluish-white glare every night. This is the result of corporate greed in America.

Adopted boy has never had a birthday before. So his new family throws him his very first one. The way he clings to them tells you everything you need to know about the years he spent alone.

Dear college students who so fervently protested for months across America: Iran is hanging kids your own age for doing exactly what you did - protesting. Why aren’t you standing up for Iranians who desperately want freedom? nypost.com/2026/04/05/wor…

Listen to his statement on being the first black man to visit the Moon. He talks about us focusing on human history. Not black history or white history. This event is definitely about HUMAN history. Love his message here.

Scientists have confirmed something almost unbelievable… forests aren’t silent at all. Researchers from the University of Florence discovered that trees communicate using ultrasonic sound pulses — frequencies so high (20–200 kHz) that humans can’t hear them. In the forests of Casentino Forest, European beech trees under drought stress began emitting rapid ultrasonic “clicks.” These weren’t random noises — they were warnings. And here’s the wild part… Nearby trees heard the signal and reacted within hours. Before experiencing any drought themselves, they started closing their stomata (tiny pores on leaves) to conserve water proving they received and acted on the warning. Scientists traced the sound to tiny internal events called cavitation microscopic bubbles forming and collapsing inside the tree’s water transport system. These clicks travel through air and soil, reaching trees up to 50 meters away.

Rick Rescorla was the head of security for Morgan Stanley in the South Tower on September 11, 2001. A former Army officer, he had long believed the World Trade Center could be attacked, so he made employees practice evacuation drills regularly. When the North Tower was hit, officials told people in the South Tower to stay put. Rescorla ignored that order. Using a bullhorn, he immediately began guiding 2,700 workers down the stairs to safety. To keep everyone calm, he sang Cornish songs from his childhood as they escaped. Almost all of Morgan Stanley’s employees survived because of his quick action. Rescorla went back inside to help others and was last seen just before the tower collapsed. He is remembered as one of the great heroes of 9/11. See more rare photos: bit.ly/44OpIzi

THE MILKY WAY IS ABOUT 100,000 LIGHT-YEARS WIDE. That means light — traveling at 299,792 kilometers per second — would need 100,000 years to cross our galaxy from one side to the other. It contains an estimated 100–400 billion stars, including our Sun, orbiting a supermassive black hole about 4 million times the mass of the Sun. When you see the Milky Way arching across a dark sky, you are looking edge-on through billions of distant suns. You’re inside that structure.
