Any space enthusiast should become familiar with Elon Musk who is a 40-year-old, soon-to-be billionaire and the man who runs SpaceX. Elon came to America because he felt that great things were possible in this country and judging by the way he lives he has definitely eaten it all up.
Not to mention going to the best schools like the University of Pennsylvania where he studied physics and business and then a lot of science and physics at what I feel is the best university in the world: Stanford. He seems very pleased to be living in the modern age and why not with the success that he is enjoying. It is very pleasing for a space enthusiast like myself to see that the future of space, space travel and engineering is in the hands of a personality such as his.
Musk is really an entrepreneur extraordinaire having cofounded such tech giants like PayPal and Zip2 Corporation which he sold for $307 million cash to Compaq in 1999.
SpaceX looks almost like a movie set and it is great to hear that Elon Musk actually dreams of colonizing the Red Planet Mars. All this and the fact that he has a playboy reputation makes him a truly unique personality to investigate. His style is both Hollywood and Silicon Valley and the fact that he is almost a billionaire at such a young age gives him enough and more game at any club!
From his home fit for a tech titan to his Porsche 911 to the $35,090 Parmigiani wristwatch, the man is a breath of fresh air to human conquests of space.
