> It actually makes me sad to see that on person owns the night sky

SpaceX has many owners, especially post-IPO. You, too, can buy the sky and sell the sky.



Elon owns 80% of voting shares, and 42% overall.

Perfect, how can this not be a win win for anyone not involved?

An opportunity for everyone to become wealthy and scale our riches together.

Without Elon, how would so many of us .. “ever have made it”?

Given the difference between Musk's optimistic timelines (and share price) and what he actually delivers…

would've been fun, perhaps, to be one of the first Martians. But even though I'm younger than Musk, I no longer expect him to deliver in my lifetime let alone his.


Ownership means nothing without control.


Laughable to imply that an individual retail investor will have any say or influence on a corporation as large as SpaceX in which Musk has a controlling stake.


The parent comment of your reply is intending to create more laughs than less.


SpaceX has many investors, not owners. If you don't have any say in how the company is run you're not an owner.

SpaceX utilizes a dual-class share structure where CEO Elon Musk retains between 82.4% and 85% of the total voting power, despite only owning roughly 42% of the company's actual equity.
