Elon Musk, founder of Tesla and SpaceX, and Grimes, a Canadian pop star, announced that their baby has been born, with its gender and name yet to be revealed.
"Mom and baby all good," Musk tweeted, immediately receiving warm congratulations from the twitterati.
Earlier on Monday, he said on his Twitter that the baby was ust "a few hours away".
This is going to be the billionaire's sixth child, as he has five children from his ex-wife Justine Wilson, whom he married in 2000; the couple separated in 2008.
Mom & baby all good

Netizens immediately became excited with the fact that the baby was born on the unofficial "Star Wars day", claiming that it is now "a Jedi" and even suggesting appropriate names.
