Elon Musk s newest SpaceX rocket stuck its landing Wednesday. Whether the unorthodox billionaire has as much success landing jokes on one of comedy s biggest stages will get its own test Saturday night. His stint on Saturday Night Live will be his first time hosting a nationally televised comedy sketch show, but it is far from his first time playing the comedian in public.

His quips and stunts can range from the extravagant (he once launched a Tesla Inc. sports car into space on one of SpaceX s rockets) to the nerdy (artificial-intelligence jokes!) to the puerile (he likes fart gags).
