Tesla headed to mars

[woodchucker]

I thought the car was going to just orbit in space? Is it going to Mars?
Martin

You are correct it is just going to orbit the sun... on the Mars orbit.. but stop killing our fun

Elon will claim his Tesla cars, on one charge, can travel the most miles, more than any other electric car.

Yep, it's going to Mars Orbit on one charge... yep, he can now be sure that no one else can make that claim.
He didn't say it would use the battery, or drive..

Dude, where’s my car?

Do you remember the Tom Swift stories that were written through the sixties? Elon appears to be the reincarnation of Tom.

1960s! I've got one of the first "Tom Swift and his Motorcycle" - 1910; A gift when I was a kid growing up in the 60s, neat reading.

Yeah there are many Tom Swift stories! I had access to the Tom Swift Jr books at the library, the earlier books were not available locally around here.
