Howard meets his hero Tesla founder Elon Musk while serving the homeless Thanksgiving dinner in "The Platonic Permutation".
Elon Musk was born June 28, 1971, and has become a South African-born Canadian-American business magnate, engineer, inventor and investor. He is the CEO and CTO of SpaceX, CEO and product architect of Tesla Motors, and chairman of SolarCity. He is also the founder of SpaceX and a co-founder of Zip2, PayPal (when X.com merged with Confinity Inc.), and Tesla Motors. In "The Military Miniaturization" he was mentioned by Sheldon when discussing Elon's theory that our reality could all be part of a video game played by aliens.
Elon makes a cameo at the end of Young Sheldon episode "A Patch, a Modem, and a Zantac" where it reveals he managed to successfully create a landing rocket through reading Sheldon's notebook.
