Elon Musk has had inappropriate relationships with SpaceX employees. Tesla shareholders knew that, and chose to reward him with a massive payday anyway.

Other R&D projects like DARPA have produced huge, world-changing technologies, like GPS tracking, autonomous vehicles, and the entire freaking internet.

This story was *a blast* to report. A few s/o's: @andyjayhawk for looping me into Montclair; Brittainy and Anthony for amazing art; Hilary Howard for swift/great edits; Chris Roberti for PS 110 and Emily Stutts for Bergen; and all the families that I spoke to.
Also: bikes.
