Just because it is in the opinion section does not mean it can't contain facts. Can you prove it wrong ?

And as for overloading the grid,... can you say that California hasn't been having brownouts for years, nor has Texas, all because their grids are over loaded ?

"The roadster has logged more than 2.5 billion miles in space (4 billion kilometers), mostly through a barren vacuum. Though, in 2020, the vehicle made its first close approach to Mars, passing within 5 million miles of the planet, or about 20 times the distance between the Earth and the moon."
