JAKARTA - The figure of the boss of Tesla and SpaceX, Elon Musk has a mission to bring humans to live on Mars. Who would have thought that Musk's efforts were already mentioned in an old book from 1953.
In the book Project Mars written by a rocket scientist named Dr. Wernher von Braun revealed that someone named Elon would bring humans to the Red Planet to build a new civilization there.
Elon Musk has expressed the statement several times that "humans must be a multi-planet species." This is intended to avoid mass extinction if unwanted things happen on Earth, such as wars and disasters.
“We don't want to be a species that only lives on one planet. We want to be a species on a multi-planet, "Musk said as quoted by Uzone.
Until now, astronomers have been trying to find other planets capable of supporting human life. Although at first humans could only reach the Moon, it is possible that Mars could also be visited by humans in the next few years.
In the book Project Mars: A Technical Tale in one of the paragraphs revealed that in the future, 10 men will create their government on Mars. Leaders will be determined through universal suffrage with a leadership period of 5 years. The elected leader will be entitled "Elon".
The book also says that there are 2 houses in Parliament to implement the laws that Elon and his cabinet have regulated. In the cabinet there is an upper house called the Council of Elders with 60 members, as compiled from Tech Startup.
A Twitter user, Toby Li took a picture of the book and uploaded it to his Twitter account. The post received attention from Elon Musk.
Destiny, destinyNo escaping that for me
