Starship
This website is not intended to ridicule Elon Musk, but rather highlight the harm to society caused by billionaire oligarches by showing why it is unwise to place so much power, influence, and admiration into the hands of a man who clearly appears to be a narcissist and clearly appears to have the mental abilities of an arrogant selfish bullying eight year old boy.
Elon Musk has shown in his public comments that he probably doesnt know the rocket equation. He might, but it doesnt appear so.
The rocket equation determines whether a rocket sputters and fails to lift off, has a successful liftoff, or explodes.
Every teenage (or older) model rocketeer has to learn the rocket equation and has to successfuly make the computations for the correct amount of propellant for a successful rocket launch of their model rocket.
Elon Musk named his rocket for his proposed Mars mission Starship.
Normally I would think that was mere narcissistic pretentiousness and grandiosity, but given Musk's lack of understanding of science, I wonder if Musk knows the dfference between a planet and a star.

How are seven simultaneous rocket launches in any way safe?
