When we talk about power, one of the most successful and influential people in the world that comes to mind is him. We are referring to Elon Musk. Born in Pretoria, South Africa, on June 28, 1971, he is an entrepreneur, media mogul and philanthropist who, over the years, has become increasingly successful in the business world. Thus, the most recent chapter of his working career is having reached the position of CEO of Twitter, adding it to the list of companies he manages.
As of today, Musk is one of the richest men in the world, but also one of those who has changed reality the most for it to become as we know it. It is precisely for this reason that from The Look we wanted to compile everything you need to discover what have been his five most important inventions and how he has influenced the world.
Tesla
At the top of this list we have, as it could not be otherwise, his Tesla car company. With this invention he made the dream come true that many had when they imagined a car that worked without gasoline. These do so because they are electric. Although not only works with these vehicles, but also with storage products and clean energy generation.
SpaceX
Musk's imagination goes a long way and he decided to invent SpaceX with the goal of creating the first space launch vehicles that can travel through space and transport humans to Mars. The first manned launch was at the end of May 2020 and was a great success.
From this, it was also inclined to develop the BFR or StarShip, which consists of a ship that it plans to use to send colonies of humans on future missions to this country.
Paypal
His contributions do not end here, far from it. Elon did not want to continue making payments with cash as he considered it insecure and invented his own solution. In the course of one of his research projects, he imagined a world in which this type of money would no longer be needed.
Thus Paypal was born, an online payment system capable of supporting money transfers between users. It also serves as an electronic alternative to traditional payment methods.
The Boring Company
He hates not only cash, but also traffic. That's why he decided to create 'The Boring Company'. This company is building a subway network of tunnels in different parts of the United States and will make it possible to travel from one end of the country to the other in just a few minutes.
As Musk has assured on certain occasions, the goal of this company is to improve the speed of excavation to the point of establishing a subway network of tunnels that is economically feasible for everyone.
Solar City
Finally, we could not finish this list without mentioning Solar City. This was built to be the first solar energy producing park present in the United States. Specifically, it is a highly profitable utility that has also been leveraged to power Tesla in the free solar charging stations used by its customers.
This is a clear example of how Elon Musk is much to blame for the world as we know it today and the many facilities available to us when we are faced with any kind of inconvenience.
