They were really vying for who is the best astronomer of all time, Kepler in Germany and obviously Galileo in Italy, well, become Italy. And he realized Kepler was purely theoretical. He had great math chops. He came up with functions for the orbits of planets before Isaac Newton proved that they came from calculus and universal gravitation. Incredible scientist.

But if he gave that, it was like giving a free particle accelerator to your arch competitors, right? He didn't do that. He said, no, I'm not going to make these telescopes, but I'm going to sell them only to the government. And they're going to pay me because these are great military devices. We don't think of them now. But with it, he's so brilliant. He was so charming and charismatic.

He said, I'm not only going to sell you these things. First, he went to the Senate in Venice, the Venetian Senate, the doge, the original doge. We think doge is a coin or some department that Elon's going to head. No, no. The doge was like the chief of the government back in the Venetians, which was one of the most wealthy countries in all of Europe. It was separate from Tuscany.

and separate from Rome. And he went there and he said, you are in maritime, have you ever been to Venice? It's beautiful, right? So he said, look, come with me. I'm going to take you up into the Piazza San Marco, go up to the tower, and we're going to look out and we're going to see there's a ship out there, but you can't see it with your naked eye.

But if I give you the telescope, you can see it three days earlier before it comes into your harbor. That's like you have an F-35 stealth fighter and you sell the rights to turn off the stealth portion of it to your adversary. It's incredibly valuable.
