Fated? Scientists predicted nearly 70 years ago that “Elon” would lead the colonization of Mars

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has vowed to lead the human race to colonize Mars, and the colonization ship “Starship” also completed a high-altitude landing test the day before yesterday, with a promising future. Now it has been discovered that as early as in a science fiction novel nearly 70 years ago, there will be a person called “Elon” (Elon) to become the leader of the government of Mars, so the netizens tsk tsk.

Comprehensive foreign media reports, well-known aerospace scientist Wernher von Braun in 1953 published a science fiction novel “Mars Project: A Science and Technology Fable”, chapter 24 of the book describes the Mars colonial government paragraph wrote, “Mars government led by a group of 10 people, using universal suffrage to elect a five-year term leader, sealed as ‘Elon’.”

Von Brown served as chief designer of the V2 rocket in Nazi Germany during World War II and moved to the United States after the war to become a central figure in NASA, where he presided over the development of the Nong Shen 5 rocket, the vehicle used for Apollo 11 (the first human landing on the moon).

Musk tweeted a post late last year writing, “Fate, fate, nowhere to run, this is my destiny.” A user posted the above at the bottom, surprising Musk by asking, “Are you sure this is true?”
