The 59-year old Ford CEO used a famous quote from the 1981 Steven Spielberg movie "Raiders of the Lost Ark," in which Harrison Ford plays the popular character "Indiana Jones."
"It's not the years. It's the mileage," he said.
Roadster’s Space Journey: Musk launched his own personal Tesla Roadster into space in 2018 in a highly-publicized event. The billionaire entrepreneur also placed a spacesuit-wearing dummy named "Starman" behind the wheel of one a Roadster and attached the car to a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket, which was then launched into space.
The latest data from whereisroadster.com, the website which keeps a track of the Tesla Roadster with a Starman, shows it is currently 234,463,626 miles away from Earth and moving away from Earth at a speed of 3,598 miles per hour.
Starman has listened to the popular David Bowie classic "Space Oddity" 397,551 times, since the launch, in one ear and "Life On Mars?" 535,683 times in the other ear, provided the batteries are still working, the tracker noted.
How Close to Mars will Starman get? The Starman is expected to reach the far point from Earth on Aug. 2 this year and far point from Mars on May 30 next year.
