4,425 satellites to space (now it is only 4,000). He works on a transportation
system called hyperloop as an alternative to planes, trains, boats or cars.
After the high-speed transit tubes are completed, it will be the fastest, the
cheapest and the eco-friendliest way of travelling. Elon is also known as the
most popular space hero because he wants to develop new life areas for

Elon is afraid that AI will become smarter and give an end to the human
life on earth. Certainly, these fears will not stop him from trying as he is a
visionary man.
