So the fact is obvious that anybody who has less money than Musk should not invest in Bitcoin. Musk has been very vocal about his passion for Bitcoin. His company Tesla recently invested $1.5 billion in cryptocurrency.

Gates during an interview with Bloomberg TV had said that Bitcoin is not for everyone and only the richest person in the world should consider investing in it.

“Elon has tons of money and he’s very sophisticated, so I don’t worry that his Bitcoin will sort of randomly go up or down.I do think people get bought into these manias who may not have as much money to spare. My general thought would be that if you have less money than Elon, you should probably watch out,” Gates said in the interview.

Bitcoin’s value doubled after Tesla purchased $1.5bn of the currency and accepted it as a mode of payment. Musk soon after his company made an investment called Bitcoin a less dumb form of liquidity than cash.

Tesla’s 10-K report confirmed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that Tesla has invested $1.5 billion in the Bitcoin cryptocurrency.

“We invested an aggregate $1.50 billion in bitcoin under this policy and may acquire and hold digital assets from time to time or long-term. Moreover, we expect to begin accepting bitcoin as a form of payment for our products in the near future, subject to applicable laws and initially on a limited basis, which we may or may not liquidate upon receipt,” the company said in the report. However, Musk had warned users to not spend all their life savings on cryptocurrency in a separate video.

While Gates only wants rich people like Musk to invest in Bitcoin, the latter advised people to not invest their life savings in cryptocurrency. “People should not invest their life savings in cryptocurrency, to be clear — that’s unwise,” Musk said. “There’s a good chance that crypto is the future currency of Earth, and it’s like which one’s it going to be? Maybe it’ll be multiple. It should be considered speculation at this point. So don’t go too far with the crypto speculation front,” Musk

Donald Trump, the reigning president of the United States who will face the election on November 3 has assured Americans that the country will be the first in the world to land humans on Mars. The president also added that NASA will land the first women on the moon by 2024.

“America will land the first woman on the Moon and the United States will be the first nation to land an astronaut on Mars, we’re getting very close,” said Trump, at his campaign rally in Janesville, Wisconsin.

The comments of Donald Trump comes at a time when SpaceX founder Elon Musk announced his plans to take touchdown Mars using the already developed Starship. In an interaction with Space.com, Musk claimed that the first uncrewed mission will be launched within four years, and it will be followed by a manned mission.

Recently, NASA administrator Jim Bridenstine has said that a human settlement on the moon will be developed by 2028. However, skeptics believe that NASA’s timeline is unrealistic, especially at a time when the space agency is facing a lack of funding.

The dangers posed by space radiation will be one of the major challenges that will bother NASA during their upcoming Mars missions. A few months back, Samantha Rolfe, a renowned astrobiologist had claimed that the Mars missions planned by NASA and SpaceX could be suicidal. According to Rolfe, astronauts who reach the Red Planet will be exposed to deadly space radiation, as the Red Planet does not have its own magnetic field.

Due to the absence of the magnetic field, the atmosphere provides very little shelter to space radiation. The astrobiologist also claimed that it is unethical to expose astronauts to lethal radiation that could cause serious health problems.

On September 22, the International Space Station (ISS) performed a very dangerous maneuver to avoid a collision from a small piece of space junk. According to NASA, there could be more than 170 million pieces of space junks in the earth’s orbit, and it ranges from damaged rockets to malfunctioned satellites.

Amid this chaos, SpaceX founder Elon Musk, launched its 14th group of 60 satellites from Kennedy Space Center, Florida, as part of the Starlink Broadband project.

After the Sunday’s launch, the number of Starlink satellites in the earth’s orbit became 800. According to Starlink, the ultimate aim of the company is to deploy 42,000 satellites on the earth’s orbit. SpaceX claims that the aim of these Starlink satellites is to provide high-speed internet in all nooks of the world.

Even though Elon Musk’s Starlink project is receiving positive responses from all corners, a section of astronomers believes that this rise in the number of satellites could negatively affect stargazing, and may even trap humans on the earth.

A few months back, the Royal Astronomical Society had expressed their concern over the rising number of Starlink constellations in the low-earth orbit.

“The Royal Astronomical Society notes with concern the launch of the new SpaceX Starlink constellation of satellites into low-Earth orbit, and the potential impact of this and other programs on views of the night sky and on astronomical research. Increasing the number of satellites so significantly presents a challenge to ground-based astronomy,” said the Royal Astronomical Society, in a recent statement.

Several space scientists also suggest that thousands of satellites in the earth’s orbit may trap humans, and could even affect future space missions, as humans are now trying to broaden their horizon to emerge as a multi-planetary species.

“Next year for sure,” Musk said on Twitter in reply to a post with a photograph of a T-shirt with the message: “India wants Tesla”.

Hey Elon , just thought we'd put this out here. We wait and hang on to hope wrt "hopefully soon" for India Tesla entry. Would love to hear of any progress in this regard. pic.twitter.com/8FNvyqFhIX

Thanks for waiting,” Musk said.

Tesla’s entry could come at a time when Prime Minister Narendra Modi is increasingly becoming focussed on promoting the use and manufacture of electric vehicles.

India’s auto sector, already reeling from a slowdown in demand last year, has been further hit by the novel coronvirus pandemic nd carmakers are seeking government support to push sales.

Musk commented last year about coming to India, in response to someone on Twitter who asked “What about India sir?”. “Would love to be there this year. If not, definitely next!” he said in March 2019.

Now, while talking at the Humans to Mars summit, Musk has warned that establishing a human colony on Mars will be very challenging, and it may even result in the deaths of Earthlings on the Red Planet.

Musk, during his talk, revealed that the journey to Mars will not be a hard task, but setting up a self-sustained colony will be challenging. The SpaceX founder also warned that the upcoming manned mission to Mars is not designed for the faint-hearted, as there are chances for losing their lives during the trip.

“I want to emphasize that this is a very hard and dangerous difficult thing. Not for the faint of heart. Good chance you’ll die, it’s going to be tough going, but it will be pretty glorious if it works out,” said Musk, as quoted by CNBC.

Elon Musk has previously revealed that the future government which will be set up on Mars will be based on direct democracy. He also made it clear that all Martians will have a direct role in determining the decision-making process of the government. Musk is now planning to put a million people on Mars by 2050, but many skeptics consider this timeline an unrealistic one.

Rania al-Mashat, Egypt’s Minister of International Co-operation even asked Musk to visit the pyramids before making the conclusion that aliens have built these pyramids. Zahi Hawass, an Egyptian archaeologist, claimed that Musk’s thoughts are the result of serious hallucinations.

In the meantime, conspiracy theorists who are up in arms have come forward, and have claimed that Musk’s view about the creation of Egyptian pyramids are actually right, as humans cannot build these gigantic structures.

Popular conspiracy theorist Scott C Waring also commented on Elon Musk’s tweets, and he made it clear that aliens have built these giant structures.

“The stones were 2 tons to 50 tons, and Egyptians had not learned of the wheel and the boats they used could not possibly carry such weight across the Nile river. But aliens could. The three pyramids were all built directly facing the true magnetic north. The compass was not yet created, so this should be impossible. But aliens could do it,” wrote Waring on his website ET Data Base.

Waring assured that even modern humans do not have the capability to build such a giant structure that could last for more than 5,000 years. According to Waring, Elon Musk has made the right statement about aliens, and he challenged Egyptians to make such a structure today to prove Musk’s statements wrong.
