cost of space launch by two orders of magnitude in order to accomplish this thing and then two more orders of magnitude because we need to get to fucking Mars, then now the goal, the bar is so much higher and you start asking questions like, how cheap can it get?

How cheap can it get?

Can't we do this cheaper?

Do we need that part at all?

Simplifying, eliminating, reducing costs.

When it's SpaceX, it feels more abstract because none of us are consuming rockets.

But

if we're buying a Tesla, we care a lot, whether it's $20,000 or $30,000, that's massive.

And that changes by a huge number, the number of people who can access a nice car that's safe, that doesn't pollute, right?

And so like, if in five or 10 more years, we keep doing these things, we keep eliminating parts, we keep increasing scale, we keep

lowering the idiot index of every part and like now the car is $10,000 and it's like an absolute no brainer and the world is quieter and calmer and cleaner as you move forward allies will assemble around you yeah I mean there's no better example than Chris Williamson

Because of all of my allies.

Yeah.

I mean, think this started with you and a microphone, right?

Like what, seven years ago?

Eight.

Eight years ago?

Yeah.

Like a thousand episodes later, there's like an army at your back.

You got an incredible team here.
