We had set out all these goals for Inspiration4.
We were going to put together an inspirational crew.
We were going to do three days of science in space, and we were going to raise a bunch of money for St.
Jude.
And when we came back, we checked all the boxes.
except we were a little short on the fundraising goal.
Like we didn't set a $50 million goal, 100 million, we said we're gonna raise over $200 million for St.
Jude.
And we were close.
And you felt pretty accomplished.
And as we were getting, we helicoptered from the ship that picks up the capsule in the Atlantic.
And we were going back for some medical tests.
And somebody on their phone, we didn't have our phones, was like, hey, Elon just tweeted and said,
you know, congratulations, inspiration for, put me in for 50 million.
And it was like there wasn't a dry eye in like the vehicle.
Like we were all pretty emotional because we now far surpassed the goal.
And I was like, well, this is it.
Like we set the bar high.
We got everything done.
Like it's over now.
