Watched the Space X Tray of 60 Satellites Pass Overhead Last Night

 If you have every watched the Space Station fly overhead, seeing the array of Elon Musk satellites were just a ditto of watching the space station with one exception last night. The array of satellites was a straight line of lights versus the space stations single dot moving at about 15,000 MPH. Never-the-less, things like that have always interested me. This was no exception. When you think what Elon Musk has done with Tesla as a car, the batteries, electric semi-trucks, Space X reusing their rockets boosters more than any other agency, including NASA, to Hi-Speed Internet that is already being used by people in the northern latitudes it's all hardware. 

Then, there is Jeff Bezos that is converting our shopping malls into Distribution Centers. Both are multi-Billionaires, but there is a keen difference between the two men. Elon built a space station in Texas and invited people to move there. Jeff Bezos, on the other hand all he did for Texas was to do a lot of lean-on  talking to see what cities like Dallas and Austin would offer. And then  he build his HQ2 in Virginia. I'll take Elon Musk as a neighboring Texas over Jeff Bezos any day of the week. But, that is just my opinion and how I view the differences in the two men.
