scienceetfiction:

Elon Musk, born in 1971 (in Pretoria, South Africa), inventor, engineer and entrepreneur, co-founder of PayPal, creator of the first viable electric car of the modern era, founder of SpaceX, the company that now has a big contract with the NASA.  

By the age of 12, he sold his first commercial software, a video game, and this was the beginning of his impressive career. More on  wikipedia 

According to Jon Favreau, director of the Iron Man movies, Musk is the inspiration for Favreau’s and Robert Downey Jr.’s interpretation of Tony Stark.

Personal idea: If we imagine an evil version of Musk, with his intelligence and his position in the space industry, we can create a James Bond villain.

This is the Crap coming off the inside of the tank

Well de-rusting the tank has started
Just got to not blow the workshop up in the process

Can’t breathe

Restorations, getting jobs done but I don’t seem to be getting anywhere, the list of jobs is not going down
WHY?

This image of the region surrounding the reflection nebula Messier 78, just to the north of Orion’s belt, shows clouds of cosmic dust threaded through the nebula like a string of pearls. (via ESO)
