Billionaire Elon Musk has been named Time magazine’s “Person of the Year” for 2021, as the world’s richest man transforms life on-planet by shifting the way people move around, and off-planet by planning a city on Mars.

“The richest man in the world does not own a house and has recently been selling off his fortune. He tosses satellites into orbit and harnesses the sun; he drives a car he created that uses no gas and barely needs a driver,” the magazine said of Musk.
