In February 2018, SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy rocket became capable of carrying the largest payloads in the world. It successfully made its maiden flight, completing its first stage recovery. The man behind SpaceX, Elon Musk, once again was in the spotlight. He is the very person who created Zip2, X.com, PayPal, SpaceX, Tesla, SolarCity, and Hyperloop. Seen through his high involvement in the areas of automobile, space technology, solar cell storage technology, satellite, fast-track transportation, and exoplanet colonization, Musk continuously updates the world’s understanding of new technology.
Today’s book Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future is the world’s first authorized biography of Elon Musk. For the first time, it reveals the details of how Musk built and operates PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX, and SolarCity. With the many ups and downs ubiquitous of the business world, few CEOs have been able to be as glamorous and conspicuous as Musk.
In his eventful years in the business and technology world, Musk is always the focus of media reports. In February 2018, SpaceX launched the Falcon Heavy rocket and put an exclusive Tesla Roadster in the fairing atop the rocket. This was Musk’s original vehicle and the first consumer car that has ever been sent to space. The destination of the Roadster was the orbit of Mars, and is planned to be floating there permanently until the end of time. Musk used a sports car instead of a satellite to test the rocket’s carrying capacity and to lower the cost. Additionally, he figured that launching a sports car would be “more interesting and inspiring”. He admitted that it was a bit silly but added, “silly and fun things are important”. In fact, it created a fantastic publicity effect. Some people even created a website to keep track of the location of this Roadster in the solar system.
Elon Musk is an obsessive, perfectionist dreamer. He is also an entrepreneur full of unique ideas and burning passion who keeps creating new business models. After Steve Jobs, he is the entrepreneur and industrialist of Silicon Valley who gets the most attention. From PayPal to Tesla, SpaceX, and SolarCity, his entrepreneurial journey went through numerous twists and turns. Still, every time when it seemed to be on the ropes, somehow, it achieved a turnaround that amazed the whole world. His almost crazy obsession with technology makes him a legendary figure given his involvement and breakthrough in the areas of the Internet, finance, automobile, aerospace, and clean energy.
