And then the big announcement today is we are launching the first nuclear interplanetary spacecraft, nuclear electric-powered spaceship, and it's going to drop the Skyfall payload, which is Ingenuity-class helicopters on Mars.
We didn't go right to Apollo 11, right?
We had a whole Mercury program, Gemini, Apollo, lots of Apollo missions before we ultimately landed.
Right now, our program is essentially set up with an Apollo 8 and then going right to the moon.
That is, again, not a pathway to success.

We've got to increase our cadence.
We're not launching moon rockets every three years after today.
We're going to start launching them every single year.
So we're in this spacecraft magnetic test facility.
This is where we calibrate spacecraft satellites before they go up into orbit, where we need to take extremely precise measurements.

Space weather would be a good example of it.
So, yes, it is rather incredible.
And even though this facility has been around for some time, it still kind of points you towards the future in some ways, doesn't it?

Keep the humor to a minimum these days on the subject.
