When we look at billionaires like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, or Mark Zuckerberg today, it’s easy to assume they were always destined for greatness. But that’s just not true. The myth of the “overnight success” is exactly that—a myth. Every one of these individuals struggled in the beginning. They faced rejection, made mistakes, worked through setbacks, and doubted themselves more than once. What separated them from the crowd wasn’t that they never failed—it’s that they kept going after they did.

Few figures in modern history ignite as much admiration, controversy, and curiosity as Elon Musk. A man of grand visions and explosive contradictions, Musk has redefined what it means to be an entrepreneur in the 21st century.

He is a billionaire many times over, a disruptor of multiple industries, a hero to futurists, and a villain to sceptics.

Every physicist agrees quantum mechanics is among humanity's finest scientific achievements. But ask what it means, and the result will be a brawl. For a century, most physicists have followed Niels Bohr's solipsistic and poorly reasoned Copenhagen interpretation.

What Is Real? is the gripping story of this battle of ideas and the courageous scientists who dared to stand up for truth.

Throughout the modern era, Galileo Galilei has been presented as a victim of cruel torture of conscience, theological narrow-mindedness, and ecclesiastical harassment typical of a dark, closed-minded Church. Frequently portrayed as such in theaters due to prevailing political ideologies, the story of Galileo points to the long-held tension between “science and faith,” “technology and ethics,” and “progress and the Church.” The story of the real Galileo, however, which has not been told—until now—is sure to rock the established narrative.

In 1955, a young boy in Chicago’s South Side began his entrepreneurial journey selling trash from the alley on 71st Street.
