It is my thought that SpaceX is going to approach NASA someday in the next 5 years and say something like "We can take 12 astronauts to Mars for the cost of $3 billion/ launch, are you interested?", and NASA will say "YES!!!", provided they can prove it is safe. By the time that happens, BFR will have had a number of crewed missions in Earth orbit, and at least one that circumnavigates the Moon.

Parts of the first stage have been recovered, by an effort funded by Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon and Blue Origin. In particular, an engine believed to be one of Apollo 11's was recovered. https://www.space.com/37830-jeff-bezos-apollo-rocket-engines-recovery.html

Traveling through them quickly, and in a way that they didn't pass through the strongest parts of it. See the Vintage Space video on the subject, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLtgS2_qxJk

The space suit. What's the deal with it? Where did you get it, or did you make it? Etc etc.

90% chance of mission success, 99% chance of returning the crew home alive, or so I understand.
