soil and Elon Musk have welcomed a 2d baby to planet Earth and , once again , sacrifice the baby an suitably geeky name : Exa Dark Sideræl Musk .
The nascence of the child girl was late revealed in aVanity Fairwith Grimes this week . During the audience , the Canadian artist was discussing her raw music when the journalist overheard a baby hollo upstairs . The interviewer take : “ Do you have another baby in your life , soil ? ”
She was initially hesitant to reveal the kid , saying “ I ’m not at shore leave to speak on these things . ” However , she afterwards confirmed that she and Musk recently had a 2nd child via foster .
Musk and Grimeshad their first child , call X Æ A-12 and nickname “ X ” , in May 2020 . Their second infant has the full name Exa Dark Sideræl Musk , nickname “ Y ” .
grunge tell Vanity Fair that Exa is a character reference to the supercomputing condition exaFLOPS , which depict the power to perform 1 quintillion float - point operations per endorsement .
Dark is , apparently , a reference to the nameless and “ the beautiful mystery ” of dark matter – coincidentally , Grimes has previously unblock a song titledMy Name Is Dark .
Sideræl is intended to be “ a more elven ” spelling of sidereal , a timekeeping system that astronomers utilize to settle celestial object , and a lid tip to her best-loved Lord of the Rings character , Galadriel .
Grimestweetedout the article saying “ Thank you so much . Vanity Fair for put me on the cover ! ! ! ! ” However , she added : " 2 clarify a few things ; I did this to speak abt my work , not ' reveal all ' haha . Def hold back a lot , wayward 2 headline . & did n’t mean for them 2 encounter out about my daughter so please respect her privateness as I ’d love her to be able to dwell as private of a life as possible . ”
She continued : “ Me and Es [ Elon ] have break in up * again * since the writing of this article haha , but he ’s my best champion and the love of my life , and my sprightliness and art are forever dedicated to The Mission now . ”
According to Grimes , the “ Mission ” is centered around “ sustainable energy , multiplanetary species . The saving of consciousness . ”
Within this gaga drive of an audience , Grimes also nonchalantly mention her design to last and die on Mars . I estimate that is what you could wait if you go in an on - again - off - again kinship with Elon Musk …
