President-elect Donald Trump is preparing for his second term in office.

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk will be heading the Department of Government Efficiency to help cut federal spending.

Musk 's business interests span across multiple industries, including space, electric cars and brain technology.

Trump and Musk have put forth lofty goals, including sending the first people to Mars and further militarizing the stars.
