The Rundown
Firefly Aerospace CEO on the Race to Monetize the Moon

And then you fast forward to now the NASA administrator is saying he wants to put $20 billion into moon missions and he wants 30 robotic landers on the South Pole in the next three years.

The Rundown

And so it's all about educating the market and educating the public.

The Rundown
Firefly Aerospace CEO on the Race to Monetize the Moon

And then nothing changed between when we were private to going public.

The Rundown
Firefly Aerospace CEO on the Race to Monetize the Moon

We're focused on the mission and our customers and delivering our operational milestones.

The Rundown
Firefly Aerospace CEO on the Race to Monetize the Moon

It's all about the mission.

The Rundown

And so that's what we're focused on is execution and then bringing that innovation too.

The Rundown
Firefly Aerospace CEO on the Race to Monetize the Moon

I mean, we're always looking for the best technologies out there to improve our capabilities.

The Rundown
Firefly Aerospace CEO on the Race to Monetize the Moon

That's why we're partnering with NVIDIA

their AI around the moon.

Those are things that are going to make us even more productive and stay ahead of the threats.

The Rundown

But really, it's just continue to educate the public markets about why things are important, why we're doing it and executing as well.

The Rundown
Firefly Aerospace CEO on the Race to Monetize the Moon

I mean, it's something that we as a company at Firefly have been thinking for years.

The Rundown

And it was part of our strategy and our vision.

and so it's the way to expand humanity's future is to get all that processing on orbit because it's a great environment it's you're not going to run out of space in space on earth you're going to run out of space eventually so from that perspective you can put a lot of compute power in space

The Rundown
Firefly Aerospace CEO on the Race to Monetize the Moon

It's already got the right environment for power generation because the sun, you can scale your solar cells and your batteries.

The Rundown

And you also have a way to, thermal radiation is something that the spacecraft community has done for many, many decades.

The Rundown

And so that's also scalable, but it's also the ultimate high ground.

The Rundown
Firefly Aerospace CEO on the Race to Monetize the Moon

You have a great vantage point from space.

The Rundown
Firefly Aerospace CEO on the Race to Monetize the Moon

So sensing from space is higher performance.

The Rundown

collaborating with different constellations gives you greater performance than just any individual constellation and then fusing all that data using ai and software applications in space will reduce the timelines of getting vital information to the users and decision makers so that's why we think it's such a great future and potential for humanity and that's why we're focusing on it at firefly
