- Elon Musk’s Empire Suffers $18 Billion Setback. Here’s Why | Vantage with Palki Sharma
It was a terrible Thursday for billionaire Elon Musk. Three things happened to him in one day. Twitter removed its legacy blue ticks from prominent accounts, causing quite a stir online. SpaceX’s rocket test failed and Tesla missed revenue expectations. What is Musk thinking now? Palki Sharma decodes

Would you subscribe to Twitter Blue for a blue tick?
Leave a comment and let us know your thoughts
** He wants to take away the blue check mark because he wants to make a subscription service and doesn't want to depend on advertisers. Subscription services democratize and decentralize power. He will add video and banking services to Twitter in the future.
** Elon had low expectations for the Starship to fly. He cleared the stage, thinking that it would explode before taking off. The testing was successfully done up to belly flipping. So it was a success.
**** Elon cut the price of Tesla for the 6th time this year yesterday. He couldn't care less about being rich.
Do your homework diligently. If you are just vomiting that someone fed you, what is your contribution?
you are so negitive!!! the rocket launch was a success
Yes, I would subscribe to Twitter Blue because now Elon is the owner & he is cleaning all idiotic celebrities promoting every negative crap thst has been push on us. I don't have any respect for Bionce & similar
Yes, But I don't need it. Those who want it must pay.
No
Overdramatization is the norm in journalism, gosh...
Elon talked about failures so many times.
SpaceX's first rockets exploded, but they learned from it, and that's why they have rockets which are able to come back to Earth and be used again.
Without the will to fail, there will be no progression.
This is not a setback. It's an achievement. You don't launch a new rocket design and expect success first time. You launch it to collect data that will help with future launches.
This rocket was a lot more ambitious design than previous versions. I am sure everything will eventually work but it will take a lot longer. Reusable moon rockets will become a reality!
I don’t know why Palki hates Elon in so many ways 😅, it’s so evident from many of her videos. What matters is his attitude towards failure. Maybe we all can learn from that. Space X has contributed much more than any other space agency! And everyone can still tweet, they are just loosing their free blue tick privilege 🤷♀️
He's american and not indian
The launch was not a failure
It was just an iteration to improve on
@@am-fq8lz - jerk, define what is "Failure", opposite of success?
its juts some oblique/ indirect methods of saying mission is accomplished?
Jealousy . He is important and smart he builds the best vehicles and factories to build his products.
@@Purp4040 Stfu man, stop being xenophobic
The rocket launch was successful. The mission was served and exceeded from it's purpose .
The news media is all clickbait
Guess she doesn’t know he already blew up like 10 Starship prototypes previously, and looks like an ignorant fool when she tries to mock him for it
@@ianchen8582 wow 😯 elaborate on that . I didn't knew this .
She is talking about the loss of 13 billion in stocks. Are people stupid to dump his stocks?
@@pratikpatil8488 actually stpid people only bought his stock
The rocket left the pad, that was a success all on its own, the heaviest and more powerful rocket ever launched and it made it almost to space, they will rebuild it, re test it and maybe do it multiple times until it’s safe for humans
Won’t work
@@Azamat421 Uranus doesn't work
@@Azamat421 humans 🙄
Sad to see a great journalist speak about this (rockets science } without bringing an expert to really explain why will he called a success
Time for Elon to label Firstpost as a government funded organization.
Good one 👌👏👏👏
Hahaha absolutely 💯
Exactly...
Well said.
😅
That’s what happens with innovation. You fail and learn from mistakes along the way. It’s how everyone improves, through failures.
oh come on man. he is a scam. watch any video of common sense sceptic.
@@b048peyyettipavankartikpra4 can I ask for elaboration on the scams?
@@b048peyyettipavankartikpra4 😂 he is the smartest man
@@tahmidhossain6349 how he defrauded the original founder of Tesla. And the ruthless things he did to him. As I said, look up "elon musk debunked"
@@shadowgaming8262 look up "elon musk debunked" and see for yourself. He fooled many governments with his media propoganda and media has warped our view on him.
Despite the setback, Elon Musk remains one of the most influential and innovative figures in the tech industry. Jai Hind...
@@LECH-AS He is well on the way to have trillions He got the right people and worked and lived in his factory until the car he was making was the best EV. His competition was absent for his first 10 years and Elon and his staff have 9 successful plants going fulll on in 10 years. He always gave credit to Nicola Tesla for a lot of ideas. He is working on getting a more affordable car. I am looking at buying a Chevy Bolt because i cannot afford a Tesla but if he comes up with the right price and a car as good or better I will trade in the Bolt and get a Tesla
@@VIPER-pk4fi Have you ever talked to tesla employees about their hectic or panic work.
@@VIPER-pk4fi ohhh shit affordable cars. 😂😂😂
Tell the haters who have nothing bt busy laughing at billionaires
anyone that has been following Starship development knows that was a huge success!
I know it might be hard to understand, or easy to interpret,
but in initial tests it is always expected something goes wrong. hence it's called TEST.
the fact that that monster went into the air and had no problems with the take off, is a huge milestone.
also, all that data is valuable so they can improve on the next iteration.
it's literally how it's done.
it's not a setback.
try to be more objective please 🙏🏻
Yes, in engineering we work with iterations, it's almost impossible to get it right the first few tries
@@am-fq8lz Not impossible though.
She is talking about the loss of 13 billion in stocks. Are people stupid to dump his stocks?
@desaster- yes, an euphemistic and oblique pattern to say failure!
" failure is the mother of all success?"
They said the same thing when cyber truck glass shattered and covered up
😂😂 Just musk and his blind fans things
He'll be fine. He managed to do the impossible, successfully launched the biggest rocket in history. This is a bad day perhaps by his standards and not yours
Failure is OK. Do not gloat on it. There will be failures before success.
You cannot run before you walk, you cannot walk before falling down atleast few times. Blowing up the rocket is fine, its a learning as he's trying something big which no one even wants to try.
Palki doesn’t know what she is talking about. The rocket launch was bound to fail. It took off snd flew for a while, and that’s success. This is the world’s biggest rocket and reusable too. It would take few more tests for it to be human/cargo friendly.
I wish him success in all his projects. He is such a powerful force for good and a real inspiration in this messy world.
Nah
I wish the teams who slog hard to make those projects successful while he tweets and gloats on Twitter all day long.
Edited: This isn't to take anything away from whatever true efforts and capital he has put into any of these projects. But critical contributions made by a lot of the people directly working on them often get overshadowed. Even he has often just sat through most interviews just basking in all the praises showered upon him, and not spending enough time giving credit to the actual experts. Sadly, a lot of people still believe he engineered the tech that powers the Tesla cars, and that he designed spacex's reusable rockets.
I don't agree
Anyone against Woke Culture is a good guy.
@@shubhamkumar5888 he is part of the team. What are you smoking?
Despite the setbacks, he's done more in his life than 99.999999% of humanity
its a bit of over exaggeration there. His achievement's are not even equal to the invention of a bulb. All he did is contribute to the advancement of existing techs. So you can say he contributed 1% to humanity.
@@darkbird2724 He said in terms of population percentage. Not how much percent he contributed to the world.
Funny seeing all these keyboard warriors critizing Elon for not successfully launching the biggest rocket ever 😂
Who cares about him? I think he is a conman.
@@darkbird2724 - he merits or his team deserves all the praises?
to ascribe his feat on his own would be an overstatement, teamwork with his workers should be underscored?
I am sorry but I completely disagree. It was the first test of absolutely new super heavy rocket. Usually, first tests don't go smoothly.
Wtf is this news about....he is inarguably a living legend for the vision he is after despite his failures... I see he is the only one who is trying to leap frog entire humanity
But Indians don’t say the same about Ambani, or do they? 😂😂
@@-bigChungusVerified becoz Ambani is not doing something miraculously unthinkable.
@@lordwiz2236
Neither is Elon musk 😂
So you want the rocket to fly and revolve around the Mars and come back in the first go? That shows how much sense you have and the science you know, it’s a dev test.
It's weird that news outlets report this as a failure despite elon specifying what's the goal. I guess news channels need something to report - including Palki 🤔
@Rhonald- outwardly the project is a failure, yet some airheads wish to claim is a success, WTF , man....
apparently some staff will learn from the failure and experiences, but joker like to declare it is a success,
as he is a tycoon? his words count?
@@ngkeam9491 why not he have built the boosters from scratch after 10 failed attempts his Falcon rockets are delivered payloads after payloads every week so he is doing his business pretty well .his ambitious starship project with super heavy booster both reusable which he launched didn't reach the expected target but 150 TON of weight liftoff is a achievement in its own and almost making it to orbit .so stop hating and look at facts and then talk . Every succes comes after failures . Go Figure
@@lordwiz2236 -dude, what logic is this.
why clings to your face-saving argument?
it is corresponding to, when I sit for some degree Exams , I fail, but I console myself I actually pass, since I put in all my effort, even exemplifying " failure is the mother of success.", I fail by 0ne mark!!
will the Exam Board considers me passing this Exam!!
Dude, if you agree, then I will concur that SpaceX is a success!!
you are declaring "Black is White."
even you glorify him don't be such silly to betray your consciences!!
add oil, dude!!
@Rhonald John- dude, Musk knows this project might fail literally!
hence as long as SpaceX is able to launch, it is considered a success to him!
but do we readers/social medias have to comply with his views, that this is a major success?
dude, you must be some materialists, adoring him as if he is some God!!
wake up, " a failure is a failure!"......., stop spinning fairy tales!!
The launch was good. They will get plenty of data from it. And try again in a few months time.
Atleast he is doing something in his life ,unlike the media whose primary job is to complain like a privileged child
Yes he had a clot following . Still Tesla having very high market valuation .
starship was a huge sucess.
One dose not simply walk into Space, without any consequence, that too with such a giant of a ship.
Elin musk is living to make the life on Earth better in so many ways......he is a real hero
The money spent on a failing rocket would have been better spent, by feeding our poor and hungry citizens. Billionaires don't understand this because they always have shelter and enough to eat. People who praise those who don't make human benevolence a priority, are just as bad. That's a fact.
Bill gates ... unable to pay 8$😂😂😅
The whole goal of the test was to collect data. They were expecting that so could collect data on that
Elon is band ambassador for success like always
I agree with the twitter take but not the spacex take, spacex has had plenty rockets explode before and he makes sure his rockets are hundred percent before he ever puts humans on them. This just one step for a bigger picture and him and his team will find the faults and try again.
This are the same people who laughed when he said he is going to launch private Space company and Electric Car. People laughed when it failed. Went back to their cave. Said he can land rockets and reuse and laughed again for few failures. Now it is landing the rockets like landing aero planes. Went back to the cave. Now when the rocket failed in the first launch starts laughing again and will again go back to their caves when its successful like lifting off a plane.
Failure is important in life. Without Failures there is no success. If it was that easy every space agency would launch their rockets on the first attempts.
Elon got balls. Who else have??????
@B- ass has better balls!!!
Similar to a story of an Indian labor who won a lottery, and He spent all those money by drinking and on bad habbits.
Palki is not what she used to be.
Offlate, she has become biased, opinionated, and just like any other reporter out there, seems to be working with ulterior motive.
Elon's success she sees as failure ?
Everything Chinese is wrong ?
Nooooo. Even our enemies (since you want to portray them as one), sometimes are good in certain areas. Respect them when they are right or successful or when they achieve something.
her news only about Anti Pakistan, Anti China, Anti US, Anti West in that order and then Anti Musk ! what ever India does and BJP does is great invention rest are just failures ha ha
Trying to be different that is all she is trying to maintain her fame through criticising everything possible, but that makes her stupid one day.
Love you Palki, but think being a bit harsh. He is doing more that the collective leadership of the governments put together..
He shows how great people behave in their adverse time. Every one face good and bad times but your attitude defines who you are. Instead of taking dig of him, take some inspiration. Be positive, good time will come.
Success is achieved by great sacrifices
Elon be like Advance happy diwali folks
It's was just an unscheduled rapid disassembly.
Today I learned new sentence to justify failure
Great coverage💯
Something American goes wrong - Palk talks smack.
Something American goes right - Palk talks smack.
Something American goes right - Palk says it went wrong...talks smack.
India does anything - good or bad......Palk says it's great...heaps praise.
So much for something objective....actual change.
Palki Palki Palki....You view Elon with the wrong lens as he is after all one of America's greatest entrepreneurs ever....part of his modus operandi is to move fast break things and learn so YES, Mr. Elon Musk had a successful Thursday.
the launch was a success, it got of the ground, first flight, it lost 6 engines during flight and still got to 40 km, even 1 engine blew up, without blowing up the whole rocket or slowing it down. and space is the final frontier, and we have bin to slow to evolve it.
...and the rocket even survived that violent tumbling and had to be destructed by Flight Termination System.
He warned that his rocket was probably going to explode
He has both Money and Brain..
He is destined to success........
The popularity is important, the reason behind it isn't.
Except they aren’t popular
The rocket didnt explode by accident, it was necessary. A prototype dont need to work perfect from the beginning.
God chill! This was highly experimental and made it much further in flight than they thought it would. Also it was intentionally terminated after 4 minutes!
@Ruben- ask some tips from China space programes?
they are too eager to help, reciprocate with funds, simple as that?
In general I respect Palki's research and I am no fan of Musk, but the rocket launch was not a set back! I wish you did better research or you are at risk of your own echo chamber!
Chinese will copy Tesla Technology and kick him out of Chinese market
Do you know that he won't patent any of his inventions for others to copy? He is not afraid of competition. Only people with limited imagination are afraid of competition.
Pakistan be line "Isse acha 1 billion hame de dete"
I think he said it was a good day sarcastically. He meant it was a bad day but to cushion the obvious hurt he said the opposite of what really happened.
DREAMS,....ALWAYS DIE FIRST,....!
Stop worrying about Elon, he is not afraid of failures 😂, that's why he is successful, and don't expect everything to be a success in first go...For me the launch is successful because it gives lot of data to prevent such instances in future
Hello Palki ji, it would be great if I can ask to make some subject about ‘Why Tesla got kicked out to make their business in India’.
His first few rocket launches at SpaceX failed too, his entire company almost failed... but here he is today, without him NASA cant send anything to space
I am waiting for this news from our media
We Indians, "शनि का साढे साति चढ गया है, ई-लोन पर।"
It's not first time with Elon
I am sure there are many out there with same feeling. Elon Musk is a rare personality for the better or worse. Im questioning this channel’s and Palki’s credibility going forward. What is the real agenda behind this propaganda? Who is gaining from discrediting Musk? The least they could have done is talk about the complexity and vision of the starship. This is disappointing to see Palki just be a another puppet for an elitist agenda.
Musk is cool
Tesla, space X and Twitter are just a bubble. It will burst soon.😂
Not everyone is gonna do that.
Very good reporting Palki. Twitter is that echo chamber where everything good or bad he does is appreciated.
Naah i don't think it was a terrible setback on rocket front. It was a van build in 2 years time and rusting, always ready to do what it could and give idea's about where the further progress is to be made. Painting it in negative light is wrong on Palki's part , i expect better news from this channel. He is what it is and our isro should also think and work on reusable boosters and try to evolve the technology with our bright scientists and brilliant engineers that we have and cut the expenditure on space program !! Rather than what he couldn't do, we have to talk about what we should do !! He is a private company and he will win or loose his money it shouldn't bother any of us until we are Tesla/SpaceX/twitter stock owner. And i don't think people are worried about blue tick anyways !! Relevance is important to picture someone as a cult when he made whatever by his own hardwork and efforts. 🤔😐🤨🧐
We're working in it. I know. I know. These billionaires are out of control.
I don't mean to insult you Ma'am, but your reporting on the rocket failure shows prejudice and animosity. I believe that shows you are human, and inclined to bias as any human.
Many rocket experts, including NASA experts, calling it a success and you calling it a failure? I don't think you are the expert in that area to make such blunt statements.
Billion dollars spent to prove firmament can't be crossed!
spaceX is Elons most valuable venture, i hope it keeps succeeding.
The article title says $18 bn. Please correct it
You do realize SpaceX launch was successful, right?? You don't have to Elon fan boy or hater to understand how impressive that launch was, and it went past their expectation.
This woman can be described in many ways but intelligent
Technological thinking begs to differ that it was a failure. Invaluable data was gathered for a first of its kind experiment.
Palki is totally clueless on how science/space technology makes advances. Yes you learn by failing. The fear of failing means you don't try new ideas. The fear of failing means the NASA Space Launch system was 100% over budget and 6 years behind schedule, while SpaceX launches are 3X cheaper than the competition. Space X's only US competitor is a combination of Boeing and Lockheed, ULA corp. Space X and ULA both were awarded contract to develop rockets to resupply the Space station. Musk's company succeeded in 1/2 the time for 1/2 the cost because they learn from their mistakes and weren't afraid to fail. But Mush has made enemies in the US security state, the neocons. Is Palki being paid by the neocons?
@@Anuvrat-Manglik - ya, the crux is to spend the minimum to learn the maximum,
a simplistic statement!!
Palki Sharma should have applauded the success achieved by SpaceX launch on April 20th. Instead she engaged on the negative that Elon lost over 13 billion dollars on the same day, a typically low level in journalism. Millions of followers of SpaceX are not impressed by such comments. Great achievements are ahead for SpaceX.
Not everyday is Sunday! ☝️😂
Man, I thought I hated Elon Musk... then I found this lady. Phew.
Never try to crack the creation..
Palki they learnt a lot from the failed rocket. They will optimize and kesrn
It's a tax write off.
But what about Bud Light?
The best thing that happened to Twitter is that it was brought by Elon Musk.... now the bird is free...
So what's wrong with a positive attitude ?
Failure has left his dictionary way back and money is just like a thought to him, comes and goes and comes again. Money or no money, he has caliber to be among those who lives after apocalypse.
Elon Musk is the real life Tony Stark!
A big failure always comes to test the endurance of Legends.
Palki.. a rocket blowing off does not necessarily mean failure. This is the first time I felt you spoke on a subject with less knowledge.
Very sad day in journalism. Palki is starting to sound like mainstream.
The Pope being the head of Vatican still has his check marks
Elon we love you ❤
Elon didn’t buy twitter on an impulse… he was forced to buy twitter
Help him more, we need more rockets in space
Space x is insured is it not?
Commercial sat launches probably are. Development activity - probably not if any at all. The need to prove low risk would slow them down.
Dear Colleagues Abroad, Rest assured are working on quickly taking all aerospace back in house under proper U.S. Defense oversight as quickly as possible.
super villian origin story
He will soon be known as Alone Musk!
Mocking Elon = mocking yourself.
Why Tesla did not invest in India?
Every scientific invention has failures, which brought success. It's sadistic to celebrate scientific failures. I like Palki's journalism in terms of analysis, storytelling, and mostly unbiased stance compared to many state-controlled Western media. However, one element missing in her approach is the self-reflection based on the viewers' comments. You can see that the vast majority of the comments support the space program. Elon's sportive attitude despite failures must be appreciated, and the Starship was unmanned (only economic loss). Mostly the hate comments against him on Western media are because he is hard to be enslaved by the liberal cult (democrats), and who knows it's a sabotage like Nord Stream 2.
