Elon Musk Announces Spacecraft Could Go Beyond Mars

SpaceX Chief Executive Elon Much announced on Twitter last week that the company’s Mars Colonial Transport spacecraft could possibly travel beyond the red planet and that meant it probably needed to be renamed, reports Ars Technica. “Maybe Ultimate Spaceship, Version 2? Mostly because it is not the ultimate and there isn’t a version 1,” wrote Musk.

Lamar is claiming that he is owed royalties for more than just the original version of Beats headphones. He is now demanding money for derivative versions.
