SpaceX to take private citizens on Moon flight

Musk has announced that SpaceX will be flying two private citizens on a round the Moon flight in 2018, using the heavy lift rocket and Dragon capsule. These two, obviously cashed up folk, approached SpaceX to do this. Richard Branson must be pissed. Is there anything Musk can't do?

Perhaps he could run for President? With growing fame from continued successes he'd have a good shot at it.

Lol, that's about the long and the short of it for mere mortals hey Barry.

That said, it never ceases to amaze me what some individuals are capable of.

What is it about the Elon Musks and Richard Bransons of this world that enables them to be so successful?

He doesn't qualify, as he was not born in the USA.

No problem, just lie about it and when someone brings it up accuse them of being fake news.
