Abstract
In 1776, there would be no steam engine without Watt’s fancy. In 1879, there would be no electric generator without Edison’s unthinkable idea. In 1886, there would be 6no train without Carl Benz’s cock and boll stories. In 1903, there would be no plane without the Wright brothers’ impossible task. In 2013, there would be no SSR without Elon musk’s naive dream.
