SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk is ready to take the blame if anything goes wrong with the company’s launch, which is planned for Wednesday.

“I’m the chief engineer of this thing so I'd just like to say that if it goes right, it’s credit to the SpaceX-NASA team,” Musk said during an appearance on “CBS This Morning” just hours before the scheduled takeoff.
