To be accurate, I believe they call the the dummy "Star man", just if you wanna edit the title

Mars Orbit? Really?

Center core is gone, didn't land successfully. Well it was a test and most of the flight succeeded https://twitter.com/kimballclark/status/960986447770656768
The title of this post is incorrect. We have to wait a few hours to know if the rocket man has made it to Mars orbit.
EDIT: It's not a Mars orbit, its a solar orbit that puts it close to Mars at times.
From the linked article: "If all phases of the flight are successful - and that will not be known until at least 6.5 hours after lift-off - the Tesla and its passenger will be despatched into an elliptical orbit around the Sun that reaches out as far as the Planet Mars."
