The name Elon Musk as the owner of the electric car or EV company under the company name Tesla Incorporation and the space vehicle company SpaceX has become the subject of hot discussion in various circles. The reason is, apart from referring to the spirit of reducing motor vehicle exhaust emissions, his visionary way of thinking is to enable humans to be sent to other planets in our solar system. So we not only inhabit planet Earth but exist in various locations. Among other things, the planet Mars.
Quoted by Yahoo Finance according to Forbes, viewed from Elon Musk’s entrepreneurship perspective, his intention to make various vehicles for the earth and planet goes beyond the vision of just making sales profits.

“We don’t want to be a single planet species, we want to be a multi-planet species,” he explained 2021 after SpaceX sent astronauts into orbit on a used rocket.
This father of five also warned about a “population crisis” on earth. In the summer of 2022, he said the decline in birth rates occurring in many countries presented “the greatest danger that civilization has faced so far”.
Several years earlier he also warned, “The biggest problem the world will face in the next 20 years is the decline in resident.”
This month, he expressed similar sentiments while attending a political festival in Italy hosted by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.
“It is important to have children and create a new generation,” he told the audience. “As simple as it sounds, if someone does not have children then there will be no new generation.”
Earlier this year, after China released figures showing a plummeting birth rate, Elon Musk wrote on Twitter Bezos, space shuttle owner Blue Origin.

“I don’t know Elon very well, but like the idea of having a friendship with him because of concern for the future of humans on various planets,” he said.
What companies like Blue Origin and SpaceX are doing, he said, is creating a space infrastructure that can be used by future generations to build greater things
“When I started Amazon, I didn’t need to develop a payment system. It already exists. “It’s called a credit card,” he said.
“I don’t need to develop a transportation system to deliver packages. It already exists. It’s called the postal service and Royal Mail and Deutsche Post. So all the infrastructure for transporting heavy goods already exists. And I can stand on his shoulders,” added Jeff Bezos.
He said he wants to use “Amazon’s win” to build heavy infrastructure that will be used by the next generation of space entrepreneurs.
“When you can start a space company that very valuable in a dorm room, then we know that we have built enough infrastructure so that ingenuity and imagination can really be unleashed,” he said.
Jeff Bezos sees the earth’s environment being preserved through massive manufacturing moving into space, harnessing natural resources power on the moon and the asteroid belt.
He envisions people living in giant space stations, which would have “many advantages over planetary surfaces, including the ability to rotate them to create normal gravity.
“Most people want to live near Earth and go to there for a vacation, just like you would go to Yellowstone National Park,” continued Jeff Bezos.
Apparently, the meaning of Elon Musk’s creation of environmentally friendly vehicles, as well as his interest in space transportation, has a deep meaning. Jeff Bezos has similar thoughts.
