From Paypal to the Stars
Elon Musk is a man with vision. Born in 1971 he is co-founder of Paypal. But that’s not all. He also co-founded Tesla Motors and founded the space company, Spacex, which designed the Falcon 9/Dragon, a private successor to the spaceshuttle.
Musk showed his talent early on. As a 10 year old boy in South Africa he bought his first computer and by the age of 12 sold his first commercial software, a space game called Blastar.
After graduating from university and inspired by innovators such as Nikola Tesla, Musk considered three areas he wanted to get into: the internet, energy and space.
