1. Sent Tesla Electric car into space- In February, A red Tesla car was launched into space by tech entrepreneur Elon Musk, with David Bowie?s song Life on Mars playing in the background. Musk's cherry red Tesla Roadster was piloted by a space-suited dummy named "Star Man".

Thousands of people gathered in Florida to watch the launch. Musk used a super rocket ? the Falcon Heavy vehicle ? to send the car into orbit around Mars, deploying technology with twice the launching power of any existing rocket, and double that of the Saturn V, which launched the Apollo lunar missions.

2. Unveiled world's fastest production car-In 2017 Musk introduced the Tesla Roadster, which he called the fastest production car in the world. The base model goes from zero to 100kph in 1.9 seconds, making it the first to hit that mark in less than two seconds, and from zero to 160kph in 4.2 seconds, making it the fastest in that category as well.

The car will be available in 2020. Musk didn't give the top speed, but astonishingly, claims it will be above 400kph.

3. Laid the Foundation of Solar City- 11years ago Musk started Solar City; SolarCity Corporation is a subsidiary of Tesla, Inc. that specializes in solar energy services and is headquartered in San Mateo, California. SolarCity markets, manufactures, and installs residential and commercial solar panels in the US. It has also provided other energy services.

In 2016, the company merged with Tesla, Inc. and now offers energy storage services through Tesla. The company, in partnership with Panasonic, operates the Tesla Gigafactory 2 in Buffalo, New York, where it manufactures solar module components

4. He introduced ECELL- ECELL is little less intricate than Skype, Musk?s plan was to have computers call landline phones and he even filed a patent for it in 2002. He basically wanted to use the information given on the Web to simplify the process of calling. Ideally, users would see the number on the screen, hit the Call button and then calls would be directed to the company via a call centre.

5. At 12, his first business venture was a videogame- At just 12; Elon Musk turned his initial attention to the world of video games. As a result he developed a code for a game which he named as ?Blastar? ? a PC game that is a mix of Space Invaders and Asteroid ? whose player goal was to destroy the alien freighter carrying deadly hydrogen bombs and status beam machines. Ultimately, Musk sold the code for Blastar for $500 USD to the magazine PC and Office Technology
