And we're going to make sure that gets analyzed as part of this pass so we can get that information out as quickly as possible to customers. But it is definitely the hardest of all the options. You're right.

Yeah, you can SSH into space for a hot five minutes and take a look around. There has to be some planning ahead of time. If you want to run some set of debug scripts, you're going to want to know ahead of time and just run that in an automated way rather than just maybe having a terminal open, which we've done.

We've done, especially after the Sats first went up and we were trying to better understand the characteristics of the first one and just get a sense of what was happening live. There was a lot of like, all right, time to SSH.

We don't have space for TMUX, man. It's a fresh shell every time.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, it's the dream.

Yeah, it's the dream.

Yeah, I think, you know, and maybe I was uniquely naive in that, you know, I think everybody has that vision built up of like how NASA does things, right? And you imagine clean rooms and every like this perfection and just everything is immaculately tested. And I'd say that there's not problems, but it's you have that vision of that much slower pace. And I think what was surprising to me is that

And I think what was surprising to me is that

the speed at which we can move and the amount of chaos that introduces and that it's okay. There was a lot of thought put in upfront around those failure modes and understanding and basically protecting ourselves, our future selves. So that when things do get chaotic and things do break, we have the levers that we can pull. So it's not clean rooms.

I mean, there are clean rooms, but you take a drill, do a test and it's like, oh man, we need to like route this connection somewhere else. And somebody just like takes a drill to a frame and they're like, all right, let's send it to space. That just kind of like shatters your view, right, of how kind of the way NASA does things.

And I think that kind of goes to what I was saying earlier about this meeting in the middle of this startup culture wanting to move fast and that entrenched aerospace culture of moving very, very slow. Right.
