Elon Musk

2002

Founder/CEO of SpaceX and Tesla; PayPal co-founder; owner of X and xAI. Led the Trump administration's DOGE cost-cutting effort in 2025. Has no documented UAP claims and is publicly skeptical of alien-visitation - noting that SpaceX's thousands of Starlink satellites have never had to maneuver around anything of unexplained origin. Included here for his structural role at the center of the modern space-and-surveillance-industrial complex, not as a disclosure figure.
