Elon Musk @elonmusk - Very few people know that the reason we launched my old Tesla Roadster to orbit Earth and Mars is that the probability of failure was very high and we didn’t want to risk anything valuable

Tesla Owners Silicon Valley @teslaownersSV - Video: Elon Musk reveals why he launched his Tesla Roadster into space.
"I fully expected this flight to fail."
Musk was talking about Falcon Heavy's first flight.
Since he thought the rocket might fail, he didn't want to put something boring on top of it.
Instead, SpaceX launched his personal Tesla Roadster with Starman sitting in the driver's seat.
The car is now traveling in an orbit that takes it between Earth and Mars.
And according to Musk, it could remain up there for around 10 million years.
Imagine taking your everyday car and accidentally turning it into a piece of space history.
