One Man's Vision For an Exciting and Innovative Future
Who is Elon Musk? Today, most people probably have at least heard the name before, but for those that may not know, he is a man with a vision. More specifically, a vision to fix a lot of the issues in today's world and to hopefully innovate it for the future. One plan includes fixing some of the pollution problems in the world, for now, starting with making and normalizing electric cars. If that sounds familiar, it is most likely because the name Tesla Motors has become a widely known name in the last few years. However, that is not all Elon has done, he also helped found companies such as PayPal and SpaceX, which has big plans …show more content…
Since he started this, one of his main goals was to actually be able to reuse rockets instead of them being a one-time use structure, and since then they have finally gotten a working prototype down. They successfully launched a rocket into space, had it turn back around, and land safely back onto the plants surface unharmed. Not only that but have also more recently reused one of those working rockets and achieved the same outcome once more. For Elon though, this is only the first step in his plan for a greater and brighter future for humanity. With this new reusable system, his long-term plan is to hopefully use this method as a means of transportation from Earth to Mars, to hopefully start sending people to the planet within the next 10 or 20 years, and with the rate of success they have achieved, it is most certainly possible at this point. He of course once again utilizes his credibility and facts (ethos and logos) to try and persuade the audience and viewers that everything he says most certainly possible. His vision for the future of humanity is to expand across the galaxy and reach bigger things, and for him, Mars is the perfect place to start that
