I am so excited to be here.
Today we make history again.
We have a history of making history.
So I want everyone to know that we did open this morning in a rather exciting way.
Falcon 9 launched Starlink satellites to orbit.
So what company would do such a thing on the day that they open in the public market?
SpaceX would, right?
I am so proud of this team today we're 24 not today this year we are 24 years old Elon founded this company in 2002 initially to build rockets and spaceships that will take humans to Mars the moon and even beyond we've done we've not quite gotten to Mars we're almost at the moon but let's just quickly run through the amazing things that you guys have accomplished 2008
Six weeks after a failure of Flight 3 Falcon 1, we got the first liquid-fueled rocket to orbit from a private company.
Yay.
Yay.
By the way, I should have prefaced this with, everyone said we could never get to orbit.
Check.
But it was a little rocket.
Then everyone said, well, you can't get a real rocket to orbit.
Two years later, we got a real rocket to orbit, Falcon 9.
Oh, well, you'll never get to the space station, because that's what we really want to do, right?
We want to take humans outside the bounds of Earth.
But you'll never get astronauts to the space station.
Check.
