Musk replied, « An exhilarating future lies ahead. »

Trump tweeted at the SpaceX and Tesla CEO on Tuesday after the beginning of the Falcon Heavy (and its payload of a Tesla Roadster) from the Kennedy Plight Heart in Cape Canaveral, Florida. 

It would perhaps were a magnificent extra easy space-related moment for Trump than the time he regarded at once into an eclipse with out glasses. 

It became a moment of pretty mannerly camaraderie between the two — Musk and Trump hold an attractive sophisticated relationship. Sooner than the 2016 election, the SpaceX founder suggested CNBC, « [Trump] would no longer seem to hold the originate of persona that displays well on the United States. » 

Alternatively, Musk became in fact one of many completely different tech titans to attend Trump’s summit in Dec. 2016, alongside Apple’s Tim Cook, Facebook’s Sheryl Sandberg, Amazon’s Jeff Bezos, and Microsoft’s Satya Nadella amongst others. 

Musk served on the president’s change advisory councils, but in June 2017 presented he became quitting after Trump pulled the U.S. from the Paris climate settlement.

Alternatively, space exploration and interplanetary streak is clearly a priority for Musk, and Trump signed his first space policy in Dec. 2017, ordering NASA to come help humans to the moon, then be aware of Mars. 

Wager who’ll play a prime segment on this? Commercial space companies including SpaceX, already working in direction of Musk’s ambitious Mars plans and successfully launching rockets like Tuesday’s Falcon Heavy at a decrease tag level than pretty just a few companies.

Trump and Musk’s shared space ambition comes up even in Michael Wolff’s controversial 2018 memoir Fireplace and Fury: Internal the Trump White Rental, at some level of which he describes a assembly between the pair in Novel York’s Trump Tower. 

“Elon Musk, in Trump Tower, pitched Trump on the new administration’s becoming a member of him in his urge to Mars, which Trump jumped at,” Wolff wrote. A SpaceX spokesperson reportedly suggested Enterprise Insider that this conversation certainly occurred but that “it wasn’t about Elon in my knowing getting to Mars but pretty making humans multi-planetary, which is the SpaceX mission.”

Mutually priceless politeness it’s miles then.
