My youngest brother was born on the same day as John Glenn’s first American orbital flight. My father was a mathematician and systems analyst for a major aerospace corporation and I was an avid reader of my dad’s Aviation Week & Space Technology magazines.”

    I thought the recording of Jupiter’s magnetic field sounded like the sound effects from Forbidden Planet.

    After watching the film again I guess I was mistaken. I did, however, catch and interesting coincidence in the dialogue. As Morbius is explaining the Krell power plant to Commander Adams and the doctor he says that the machine has 7800 levels and there are another 400 like it. 7800 / 400 = 19.5

    3. He’s not a fan of Donald Trump…
    Despite saying he gets involved in politics “as little as possible,” Musk did say he really doesn’t want Trump to get the Republican nomination. “I don’t really have strong feelings except that hopefully Trump doesn’t get the nomination of the Republican party.”
    When asked about government corruption though, he said he didn’t think there was as much as some people think, at least at higher levels of government. “On balance I guess it’s not that corrupt because if it was corrupt than SpaceX wouldn’t have a chance,” he said.

    “The greater the level of visibility, the less corruption there is… basically, how much attention people are paying, that defines how much corruption there is.”
