The 1953 book called the “MARS Project,” written by famous rocket scientist Werner Von Braun. Dr. Wernher von Braun was instrumental in developing Germany’s V-2 rocket during World War II. After the war, he emigrated to the United States and became a driving force behind America’s space-launch vehicles. America’s first satellite and the Apollo spacecraft that landed on the Moon were launched by rockets designed by von Braun. In the book, Braun imagined that human colonists on Mars would be led by a person called ”Elon”. A few years later, someone pulled the original German manuscript out of archives to debunk this myth, only to confirm that Von Braun did indeed predict he would be called “Elon.”
