  1. Agreed, and the Vikings loved their ships – Njord was the god of ships and seafaring, as well as the god of wealth and prosperity – Musk likely knows the two can live together.

  2. Reminded me of this – great article, including the quote “Yes, Musk is being polite to Trump because he wants to save humanity in case of the totally plausible scenario wherein he can stop Trump from triggering nuclear Armageddon. It certainly has nothing to do with maintaining those generous government investments.”

  3. Story idea done already, sort of. Easily the most important divine vessel was the Barque of Ra which sailed across the sky each day as the sun.

  4. Yeah, the cults are already in their early stages. however don’t hold your breath for a second-coming… “Hero worship can blind you to certain realities. You may believe that Musk will figure it all out, that he’ll meet production goals for Tesla, colonize Mars and power the world with batteries. But what if he doesn’t? What if Tesla runs out of cash before all these visions become a reality?”

  5. Agreed. and Gerard K. O’Neill didn’t see us sitting in a tin can. The colonies are supposed to be made of a transparent material much like glass. They are also imagined to be self-sustaining, which is a major plus during an era when “sustainable” is one of the buzzwords for off-Earth living.

  6. No reason folk won’t give thanks to the vehicles that get them to their space hotels. Not sure about needing to worship anyone, but looks cosy enough, compared to banging around in a tin can.

  7. Men have a right to peaceful existence – some Indians are now worshipping Musk as a way to use his name for publicity, fact is stranger than fiction in a funny old world.
