− | [[File:SpaceX CEO Elon Musk visits N&NC and AFSPC (190416-F-ZZ999-006) (cropped).jpg|150px|right|thumb|This is how he looks like. Yes, he is not a stick figure.]]

− | '''{{w|Elon Musk}}''' is the founder of {{w|SpaceX}} and a co-founder of {{w|PayPal}} and {{w|Tesla, Inc.}} He envisions a conceptual high-speed transportation system known as the {{w|Hyperloop}}, potentially synergistic subterranean tunneling company called {{w|The Boring Company}}, and founded SpaceX for his plans for space tourism and colonization of {{w|Mars}}. He is literally the physical embodiment of the hi-tec messiah complex of the 21st century. No wonder [[Randall]] has made several references to him in his comics... Elon Musk is related to Randall Munroe distantly. | |

| |
