Did Von Braun Call It For Musk?!

[BIAD]

The flu is dead and Joe is in the White House. Guess it's time to pull out the fluff-pieces!

I like how The Sun newspaper calls Wernher von Braun a 'scientist', yet omits his membership to the
Schutzstaffel (SS) as a Untersturmführer and also to the Nazi Party. Maybe the narrative would suffer?!

Scientist predicted a man named ‘Elon’ would colonise Mars in book written 70 YEARS ago

'Elon Musk's plot to colonise other worlds may have been predicted by a German scientist 70 years ago.
Writing in his 1952 science fiction novel "Project Mars", engineer Wernher von Braun described a man
called "Elon" who ruled over the Red Planet.


Elon Musk and Wernher von Braun. Wernher is the one explaining what word-dominance is with use of
a globe.

One passage of the book –a fantasy blueprint for a human expedition to Mars –details that "a Martian
government was created, led by ten men". Those men worked under a leader "elected by universal suffrage
for five years under the name or title of Elon."

Von Braun was one of the most influential scientists of the 20th century and a key figure in the development
of rocket technology in Nazi Germany. Following World War 2, he was secretly moved to the United States
and became a pioneer of space technology for Nasa.

Project Mars may have been science fiction, but it included scientific calculations for how humans might travel
to Mars. The book's spooky prediction was unearthed a few years ago but resurfaced this week on social media.

In one passage, von Braun described two houses in Parliament that enacted laws administered by Elon and his
cabinet. The upper house was called the Council of the Elders and contained 60 people, each of whom was
named for life by Elon himself.

Seventy years later, and Elon Musk is one of a handful of billionaires with plans to colonise the Red Planet within
the next few decades. His company SpaceX recently became the first private outfit to launch Nasa astronauts into
space.

Musk, 49, is open about his wish to explore other worlds, tweeting yesterday that he wants to "‘make humanity a
multiplanet species". And while SpaceX's reusable rockets have only reached Earth's orbit so far, the California
company says that future craft will travel much further.

Starship, a rocket currently in development at a site in Texas, is designed to reach the Moon, Mars and beyond.
SpaceX plans to reach orbit with the vehicle in an unmanned test flight by 2022.
Billionaire Musk, who is also CEO of Tesla, hopes to send a million people to Mars in his lifetime using a 1,000
-strong fleet of the powerful rockets.
The finished product will stand 165ft (50 metres) tall and boast six of SpaceX's powerful Raptor engines.

According to SpaceX, the contraption will hit speeds of 15,000mph (25,000kph), making it the world's most
powerful spacecraft. In a series of tweets last year, Musk outlined how his Starship plans would open up space
travel to anyone, regardless of their income.

"Needs to be such that anyone can go if they want, with loans available for those who don't have money," he wrote.
Musk's plan involves building an expansive fleet of Starship vehicles, which comprise a huge rocket topped by a
bullet-shaped spacecraft.

SpaceX says reusable rockets that can land and take off again make space travel more cost effective, accessible
and sustainable. However, the team has a long way to go before they can conduct Starship's first manned flight.
Musk is targeting a Mars cargo mission by 2022 and a manned flight to the Red Planet by 2024.
A prototype Starship recently completed its first successful test flight and landing, reaching an altitude of 6.2 miles
(10 kilometres)...'

So a 'spooky' article that seems upbeat.

'...In other news, SpaceX recently launched a spy satellite into orbit. ESA researchers think they've spotted an angel
on Mars. And a satellite that can look inside buildings at any time of day has been launched...'

The Sun:

Well, that's nice then.

An excellent example of the effectiveness of a solid information campaign. 

The same source for "Kill Nazis" was the same source for "rocket engineer who can help humanity reach the stars". Sure it was the 1940's but it's still golden. 

Some 70 years latter and it's still engrained in the narrative. Even when there are mountains of evidence available to anyone which paints a starkly different picture.  

Side note, Elon is pretty eccentric (those types usually are) but I am glad he is using some of his fortune and fame for a worthwhile cause.

I can only imagine the shock of whomever is monitoring this while I'm having a bath. The trauma will be lifelong!

I fully agree. Mr Soros could learn a thing or two from him.

Of all the people who had access to The Looking Glass technology back then, I would say Von Braun did, although I believe it was called by a different name then. 

What about that book about Barron Trump? That book is so spot on talking about Barron, and even has a picture that looks just like him. 

Someone is hiding technology from us.
