On the podcast, Rogan said, “You literally told them to make the starship more pointy because of the movie ‘The Dictator.” Musk replied, “Yup, and they know it too. It’s not like they’re unaware of it. Thought it would be more funny if we made the rocket pointy, so we did.”
Rogan asked Musk, “Did it have any effect on the aerodynamics?” Musk answered, “No, we can make it way blunter and be fine.” The UFC commentator further questioned if it was better to have the rocket pointier, to which Musk replied, “It’s arguably slightly worse, but like…it looks cooler.”
