It's going to take years and years and years.

And when you put it up there, it's going to last for 20 years.

Now they can, on a single Falcon Heavy, they can distribute 60 different satellites.

You can experiment.

You can try new things.

So much is going to change when this is going to happen.

And it's hard to predict what that picture will ultimately look like because it's hard to even imagine it.

So they call this the overview effect of when you go into space and you look back on your home planet, how does it change you?

And I think, no doubt, you are changed in some way or another.

I do think a lot of what people say is kind of,

almost like recycled talking points from the 60s and 70s.

Because if you're one of the first astronauts in the 1960s, you have not a clue what Earth looks like.

I mean, now we have high-resolution HD cameras looking down from the space station.

You can go on YouTube and your kids can look at what Earth looks like from there.

And generally speaking, it looks the same.

It radiates light a little bit more.

It's certainly impactful to be there and going through it.

But

It's like a long way of saying, I don't think you need to go to space to know to be a good person and not destroy our planet or fight wars over lines drawn on maps from long ago.

What impacted me wasn't any of those things.
