Read what I said and tell me who else has landed AND REUSED a rocket, frickstick.
EDIT: I will admit that suborbital rockets have been reused. But you're implying that landing and reusing an orbital class booster is the same as a suborbital class booster and you're still a frickstick.

So you don’t think grass hopper counts as a rocket? Also, has blue origin even made it to orbit yet?

I really don't know what you are arguing or why you are so mad.

In that vein I had a boy scout rocket with a parachute that landed perfectly and I just added a new engine to.
Musk hasn't even invented PayPal yet

Touché. You know what I mean though. Should have said propulsive landing reusable rocket.

Do you think Musk and his business practices are closer aligned to Thomas Edison or Nikola Tesla?

I know exactly what you mean't. It is, what I believe, will prove to be a fatal flaw of Musk. Constantly changing his objective and, while doing some cool things, will end up doing nothing of value. At least from a monitary stand point

Mix of both. Some good and some bad from both men. Hard to compare him to either, though.

Uhh... he started an aerospace company with less than 100 million dollars now worth ove 10 billion. He is reusing orbital class rockets making all of his competition obsolete. Other countries space agencies can’t even copy him. You seen like a BO fan, I’ve give them credit when I see new glen leave the ground.

I'm not a "fan" of either.
I would never invest in anything Musk does, mainly because I don't think the risk is worth the reward with his ideas.
The "worth" of his companies is a totally different subject.
