Tesla CEO Elon Musk says the company will make ventilators for hospitals "if there is a shortage." The comment came as a reply to one Twitter user's suggestion for Tesla to repurpose its Fremont factory to make ventilators in the wake of the ongoing coronavirus outbreak.

Sure you know just about everything about Tesla and SpaceX, but how much do you know about Elon Musk’s Neuralink start-up? Out of the many eccentric projects that Musk is currently working on, Neuralink definitely takes the cake. The ambitious start-up seems to be working on something straight out of a science fiction film.

Elon Musk sent a memo to SpaceX employees on Friday underplaying the dangers of COVID-19, the illness caused by the novel coronavirus, which is now considered a pandemic, according to a report from BuzzFeed News. Musk’s email, sent earlier today, told employees of the space transport company that they were far more likely to die from a car crash than COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus.

More than two years after winning an electricity bet, Elon Musk’s resulting Australian solar and wind farm is an almost total success. The facility powers rural South Australia, whose population density falls between Wyoming and Alaska, the two least dense U.S. states.

"I think we need, probably, on the order of 1,000 ships."

SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket sent the company’s last first-generation Dragon cargo capsule on a resupply run to the International Space Station, and then went on to notch a milestone of its own.

The Space Force has Elon Musk's seal of approval. SpaceX's billionaire founder and CEO said he's onboard with the sixth branch of the U.S. military, which President Donald Trump officially established in December 2019.

Last month I attended the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Vegas. I had a list of all the tech I wanted to see, talk to someone about, or try for myself, and I spent two days speed-walking between buildings and booths, scrambling to cram it all in: a 360-degree hologram, an exosuit, a flying taxi, haptic gloves—I didn’t want to miss any of it. By the end of each day, my legs and feet ached—and I hadn’t come close to seeing everything I wanted to. I’m not a step-counter, but other attendees claimed to be walking several thousand steps more than their daily averages.

SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk took the next logical step for a technological futurist: He has released a rap track, Don't Doubt ur Vibe, on SoundCloud.

SpaceX, Elon Musk's powerhouse of a space exploration company, could be on course to seriously compromise humanity's study of outer space. Among its many rocket launches and plans to colonize Mars, SpaceX has a more Earthling-focused project. Its Starlink project aims to put up to 42,000 satellites into orbit around the Earth, where they would beam down data providing internet to remote parts of the globe.

Elon musk He seems to be quite focused on Starship at this time, sharing photos of the work being done on the Starship orbital prototype designed "SN1", which is currently being built at the SpaceX facility in Boca Chica, Texas. The CEO answered a series of questions on Twitter Thursday night, providing more details about Starship and how it will eventually work to achieve Musk's goal of turning humans into an interplanetary species with a colony on Mars.

Both SpaceX and Boeing are part of NASA's Commercial Crew Program, which aims to bring astronaut launches back to US soil for the first time since the end of the space shuttle era in 2011. SpaceX already successfully sent an uncrewed Crew Dragon capsule to the ISS earlier this year. Boeing was hoping to match SpaceX's achievement, but a glitch caused Starliner to use up too much fuel. Instead of meeting up with the ISS, Starliner will attempt to come back to Earth early.

Could you meet the United States entirely from solar energy? Sure, claims tech entrepreneur Elon Musk. The Tesla CEO, whose company provides solar panel solutions like the Solar Roof, shared a video via Twitter on Saturday of the electricity-generating tiles taking a beating from a hammer. One fan responded to Musk’s video with a 2011 quote from Bill Gates, who described solar and similar technologies as “cute,” but that the answer is in nuclear power.

It sounds like the famed astrophysicist would rather Elon Musk spent less time thinking about Cybertrucks and more time making Star Trek real. Could SpaceX and Tesla founder Elon Musk become a real-life Zefram Cochrane, the fictional inventor of warp drive on Star Trek? Astrophysicist and science personality Neil deGrasse Tyson seems to think so.

In 2013, Tesla CEO Elon Musk paid almost $1 million for a 1976 Lotus Esprit submarine car that was featured in the 1977 James Bond movie "The Spy Who Loved Me". Years after the film released, the car had been missing until discovered under blankets in an unclaimed storage unit by a couple in Long Island, New York.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk unveiled the much-anticipated Cybertruck electric pickup in LA on Thursday, and the vehicle is obviously getting a lot of attention for its eye-catching and unique design. It looks more like a rover designed for space exploration than a truck – and analogy in this case is particularly fitting, because the Cybertruck is clad in the same stainless steel alloy that Musk’s other company SpaceX will use as the skin of its forthcoming Starship spaceship.

In any field of business or industry, the prevailing rule has always been that if there isn't a law against it, you are free to do it. If there are no rules protecting a resource, you are free to use or take as much of it as you want to further your own ends. Until regulatory measures are put into place, disruptors and innovators are free to regulate themselves, often to the extraordinary detriment of those who depended on those now-scarce resources.

Elon Musk tweeted his welcome to Ford's new electric vehicle, the Mustang Mach-E SUV. More and more conventional automakers have been tapping into the electric-vehicle market that Tesla has sought to dominate. Ford unveiled the Mustang Mach-E SUV on Sunday with great ceremony, featuring an appearance from the actor Idris Elba.

There's plenty of reasons to be skeptical of Elon Musk's grand vision of making humans a "multi-planetary species" by first building a metropolis on Mars, but the SpaceX founder has a knack for selling that vision with a particular poignancy.

Starship, SpaceX’s ambitious rocket under development, could have an underestimated effect on society’s interactions with space. The stainless steel rocket is currently in the prototyping phase, but when complete it’s set to unlock some of SpaceX’s most ambitious targets. It offers a fully-reusable design, which could drop launch prices lower than ever to $20,000 per ton. It uses easier-to-harvest rocket fuel, which could create a planet-hopping network to the moon...
