From pop-culture, in the Douglas Adams’ novel, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, 42 is the answer to the “Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe and Everything”, Elon Musk believes this book is an important lesson in philosophy that’s delivered as comedy.
42 is also a bit of a magic number. For example, in ASCII language, it is the designation for an asterisk that represents “anything” (or whatever you want it to be).
What we like most about the number 42, is that it has a special meaning for truth seekers. The message that Douglas Adams sends is that asking the right question is always the most difficult part of solving a problem.
There are many questions you could ask, and the quality of the outcome depends on asking the right one. Therefore, 42 reminds us to never stop asking the right questions.
