He was really well-funded, really talented guy, obviously, but he couldn't get it done. But now there's this interesting period where SpaceX will have the capacity and we will know the price. And there's been a number of companies that have gotten up and running on the basis of SpaceX's falling launch costs to low Earth orbit. So there's two examples that I think of. One is Varda.

They do drug manufacturing in space. So In low Earth orbit, there's no gravity. And so if you're trying to make a drug and it's crystallizing, if you can turn off the gravity, that can produce higher yields and better drugs, essentially. So it's a pharmaceutical play, but leveraging SpaceX. And it'd be impossible without SpaceX. And the same thing goes for

uh impulse impulse space by tom mueller the first employee at spacex he is building a company that boosts creating a boost vehicle that gets uh gets material from low earth orbit to geosynchronous orbit and so um That is another company that wouldn't exist without SpaceX. And so I think there will be a series of these companies.

And for the really, really big opportunities, it's totally possible that SpaceX takes it for themselves. SpaceX launches a lot of internet satellites. But when the really big opportunity of Starlink came about, which is low Earth orbit satellites in this mesh, it was obviously going to be just way better performance. You can now...

do zoom calls or podcasts like on planes it's crazy uh and really anywhere uh they kind of took that for themselves so i wouldn't i wouldn't want to compete with spacex on that um but if i think about you know moon tourism or some sort of like moon mining operation or even just some you know contracting uh organization that that puts assets on the moon for some other reason getting like

what if your business is like, we're just going to get food assets or air or water to the moon. And we're just going to build that up so that if SpaceX wants to buy some of it, we have it on the moon or NASA wants some of it, we have it on the moon. And that's what our business is. And we're just really good at understanding the economics of, of SpaceX's current cost to get a kilo to the moon.

And we are really good at just taking like, if it costs a hundred thousand dollars a kilo or a million dollars a kilo, or it doesn't matter, we have figured out what the right thing is to do right now. And I don't know the sequence of events. It might be, you want to put a nuclear reactor there first or something, or solar panel, or I don't know, robot, who knows.
