Born in South Africa, educated in Canada and throwing another at Stanford, his path to success began with the established payment system PayPal. Which he sold in 2002, eBay for $ 1.5 billion.
Unlike most millionaires Elan Musk decided not to delay a successful business and do what interests him: the colonization of Mars and minimalizatsyya climate change. As a result of his work week close to 100 hours for which he can lead the SpaceX, Tesla Motors and Solar City. His estate has already exceeded $ 7 billion.
Describing he created in 2002, SpaceX, is difficult to avoid prykmetnikav 'first' cl and 'most'. Falcon 1 - the first rocket cl is fully developed in the XXI century. In addition, the first private rocket, which delivered into orbit a commercial satellite. Spaceship Dragon - the first private ship that made a flight to the ISS. And most spacious ship that can drop off into orbit 7 astronauts (the Soviet "Union" only 3). And also the first and only at the moment private spacecraft that can deliver the goods back to Earth. However, cl this is only a preparation for the main.
Seeing cl that from the 60s of the last century cl only degrade missile technology, Musk himself plunged into the business. Space romantic and clairvoyants, it is certain that 2030 will be established on Mars human colony of 80 000 inhabitants. It is to achieve this goal his team is working on Falcom Heavy, most capacious raketanosbitam in history.
The idea is to mask the fact that progress in space is not stopped due to lack of political will, and by the high cost of missiles that are burned in the atmosphere after the mission. The main thing is to create a low-cost missiles that can be used several times. Thus the cost of space missions is reduced to a modest number of 200 000 $. His plan and believe in NASA, which SpaceX cl already signed a contract for $ 1.6 billion.
As for the more 'pryzyamlёnnyh' affairs, his Tesla Motors and Solar City is now a historic rise. The latest model of the electric vehicle - Tesla S - has become a real star. Having received positive feedback it is sold in the United States better than premium-class BMW and Mercedes. Lose the fuse Tesla Motors is going. For 2014 almost all the territory of the US will be covered dressing Supercharger, which is 40 minutes absolutely free of charge the battery at 80%, and for the impatient You can instant replace the battery, for which however will have to pay.
Inspired by the success, the team mask next year to release a new minivan Tesla X to pay even less 40 000 $. Building on the success, the company has already started selling cl its cars in Europe. Thus Elan Musk has managed what no one else did not work - to make electric cars and big business profitable. However, if Elektromashina cl no surprise, the latest project Elana mask can really change cl our perception of transport.
By the next Dozhinki Belarusian authorities promise to hold fast elektrafikavanuyu railway to Zhlobin, where in some parts of the train will travel at speeds up to 120 km / h. At the same time giperpetlya mask has to provide movement between Los Angeles and San Francisco with a maximum speed of up to 1200 km / h. The shuttles will go if necessary at intervals of 30 seconds.
Each of which will carry 28 people, or 3 cars. First, it is difficult to believe, but Musk claims that it's real. He proposes to build a straight looped into the loop aerial cl line. Vacuum tube is also topped with solar panels that will make Giperpyatlyu one of the cheapest forms of transport. The entire project requires only a $ 6 billion, which is ten times cheaper than the approved project "fast" California Railroad.
Due to lack of time (and possibly means of implementation) Elan did Giperlup open project, outlining details alpha version with the hope that the idea will attract big business. Although if the project will be implemented, Musk promises to tackle its own implementation.
Musk argues that the cost of such a loop is only $ 6 billion, but in testing the technology needed money several times more. There are also serious questions about the safety of the experts network and bandwidth. Studies show that the construction of high-speed communications only increases the flow of passengers. Shuttles Giperpyatli, even with such short intervals, due to their small size will not be able to carry a growing number of people.
Is not so simple and Tesla Motors. If in the US market do not worry, in Europe, sales will likely cl modest. The mask should also bother China, which set an ambitious goal to significantly increase the number of electric cars. It seems that soon the local producers, using as a springboard huge (second only to the USA) will expand its own market cl electric vehicles cl in the rest of the world.
