Elon Musk

Elon Musk is the engineer I was talking about in class - but I perhaps got a few of my facts wrong. I am posting the 60 Minutes story on him below and I highly suggest you all check it out. It's only ten minutes and you learn a lot. This guy is transforming technology, but as we talked about in class - is this for the better? I think that his car company will transform the way that cars are built, bought, and driven and that his contract with NASA is just a testament of his ability and work ethic. If you still don't believe in his vision.... He's the guy who created PayPal. He wanted to go to Mars as a child and perhaps with his mid - that's a plausible goal. Again - check out this interview!

  2. Thank you for sharing this. I think that Musk could do a lot to revolutionize the world, and make things work more adequately. Although many think he's crazy, I think that the smarter you are, the crazier your ideas and concepts seem because many cannot comprehend what is happening on the level of said genius. Thanks again!
