And so that is a really great opportunity for us because, you know, some of the mystery about our program is because, of course, we are building a proprietary technology and we cannot share every detail of what we've done or how we do it, as is normal for companies. But, you know, with the U.S. government, we can share a lot of that information.

So that's a great ability for us to get that kind of external vetting.

Yeah, first of all, you're right. It is a really exciting time in quantum computing. There's a lot of energy in the field. A lot of progress has been made, you know, I would say in the last couple of years. So it's really exciting, and I think that feeds into what I said about really useful and impactful quantum computers being years, not decades away.

With all these different companies, including very big companies, really racing towards the same goal, I think the competition is one of those ties that lifts all boats. So I think it's a really exciting time for quantum computing.

We published a roadmap that explains the part of our roadmap that we can share that is sort of more scientific and doesn't reveal too many of the details that are trade secrets. It's a part of what we worked on with DARPA. It's a roadmap of delivery for them. So for us, it's the next step on that roadmap towards computers that are of the scale.

So it's going to be devices of greater complexity that have more capabilities. as well as improving the stability of the underlying qubits. Those are kind of the two axes along which we, you know, most of our development is occurring and we're marching ahead on both of them. We would love to have, you know, catalysts that can enable us to do that.

We'd love to have catalysts that can break down microplastics. You know, solving chemistry and materials problems maybe doesn't sound, it sounds like a niche thing. You know, it's not the same as, it isn't going to be just like a better Excel spreadsheet or a better version of Microsoft Word or a better browser. On the other hand, 96% of all manufactured goods rely on chemistry materials.

So it's the kind of thing that could impact us all around. Even people who never see a quantum computer, never touch a quantum computer, their lives could be impacted by the materials and chemistry that we could discover with a quantum computer.

Thank you. My pleasure.
