Earlier this morning, Musk [shared a 3D render]() of what the space could look like, with expanses of trees surrounding the massive, solar panel-lined facility. And the factory might even have a secret killer feature up its sleeve as well, likely meant to appease German techno enthusiasts working at the plant. "Might be an indoor/outdoor rave space on the roof," Musk [hinted](), responding to a Twitter user asking about seeing "the rave cave rendering." https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1283275066805911552 ## Techno Time The concept isn't entirely new. In March, Musk [posted a poll]() on Twitter asking his gigantic following if they were interested in a "mega rave cave" below Giga Berlin. 90.2 percent responded with the option "hell yes!" Musk has plenty of reasons to celebrate. His car company's valuation sky-rocketed to a high of $1,760 on Monday as tens of thousands of new investors [were pouring in]() from online brokerage Robinhood. The rocketing valuation also sets Musk up for yet another massive [$1.8 billion payday](). At the same time, the construction of the manufacturing plant has hit several setbacks, with [environmental protests]() concerning deforestation and worries over drinking water supplies leading to a German court [ordering]() Tesla to cease construction, but lifting the freeze [several weeks later](). German munitions experts even [had to defuse]() seven unexploded World War II bombs at the site in January. **READ MORE:** [Elon Musk teases a quirky extra for Tesla’s Berlin Gigafactory]() \[*Digital Trends*\] **More on Tesla:** *[German Court: Tesla’s “Autopilot” Is False Advertising]()* ## Author I've been at Futurism since 2017, where my role has evolved to encompass design, writing, and increasingly editing. I've always been fascinated by space exploration and advanced transportation, which I've leaned into by interviewing luminaries in those fields while closely following the dimensions of policy and regulation that allow next-generation projects to succeed -- or, sometimes, to fail. I'm also keenly interested in the effects of generative AI on society, policies, and democratic institutions, as well as clean energy, physics and biology, and the vagaries of tech leadership. My work for Futurism has been cited by publications including Ars Technica, Gizmodo, PC Magazine, Jalopnik, Fox News, and the New York Post. I spent my childhood living in locations including Manila, the Philippines, and Geneva, Switzerland, attended McGill University, and now live in Toronto, Canada. Before Futurism I worked at AskMen and a small photography studio. In my free time, I'm an avid gardener, foodie, and craft beer lover, as well as a maker of artisanal hot pepper sauces. I have a magnificent dog named Freida. ### Author social links [Bluesky]()
