Look into the Van Allen radiation belt, there is also a video of someone from NASA saying we don't know how to go through it.
Then think about Elon's self landing reusable rockets. Think about all the technology and the processing power of all the computers used on board to control the rockets. Remember a 1st generation iPhone was thousands(or more) times faster than computers from the 70s. Then think about how many times spacex failed, but, miraculously, they did it perfectly on the first try with drastically inferior equipment on the moon.
Why didn't Elon just reverse engineer the technology from the 70s?
