    Actually, after the Eugenics Wars, much of the history of this time period is lost, which is, of course, why Captain Lorca of the USS Discovery mistakenly refered to Elon Musk while listing aerospace pioneers like the Wright Brothers and Zefram Cochrane

      Honestly when I watched it (shortly before s5 came out so pretty recently), I took that as a good character moment. This man, who is terrible, is actively looking up to a terrible man.

      Honestly him saying Elon Musk as an inspiration was a bit of a spoiler since it made me think he was evil.
