Time Magazine utser Elon Musk till Årets person

Time Magazine har sin vana trogen utsett Årets person och i år tillfaller den äran Elon Musk, den sydafrikanske entreprenören som bland annat är vd för Tesla, har grundat SpaceX och även är världens rikaste person. I en artikel om Musk skriver Time bland annat om Musk:"Many people are described as larger than life, but few deserve it. How many of us truly exceed our life span? How many will make it into the digital textbooks our spacefaring descendants will study? As Shakespeare observed in Julius Caesar, it’s far easier to be remembered for doing evil than doing good. How many will leave a mark on the world—much less the universe—for their contributions rather than their crimes? A few short years ago, Musk was roundly mocked as a crazy con artist on the verge of going broke. Now this shy South African with Asperger’s syndrome, who escaped a brutal childhood and overcame personal tragedy, bends governments and industry to the force of his ambition."Ni kan läsa hela Times artikel om Musk på länken nedan.
