You will build everything yourself.
Um, it might take 10 years to get to space, and that's okay.
Uh that is not the case anymore.
Uh we you know, we were we were one of the earliest investors in a company called Apex Space.
I believe they are the fastest company to get from clean sheet design to orbit in 13 months um in in history, um, which is which is pretty incredible.
Um, but they had a different view, which is that we only want to make the satellite bus.
Um, and if we can figure out ways to make the satellite bus cheaper, more efficiently, and and work with all of the the legacy primes and the new primes um to put their payloads into space.
Um
um that will be far more efficient for these companies that are building um different types of of payloads.
And I think that thesis has been has been largely correct.
Um they've been able to work with
Um, you know, some of the the most kind of legendary, I would say, um, you know, legacy companies, um, but also the the emerging ones.
They, you know, they're they um Andro flew on their first flight.
Um so I think there there's there's something to be said about sort of deconstructing the vertical integration process in space that's been very um novel in space two point oh.
We're also investors in Northwood space, um, it's building ground stations.
Um, you know, that's a that's a problem that
hasn't been tackled in a in a in a very long time.
We do not have enough ground stations to get data back to Earth as quickly as we need to.
And given that low Earth orbit has just been, I would say, you know, saturated um by by payloads in the last several years, particularly because the cost of launch has come down and because SpaceX has put eight eighty-five percent
Of all massive to orbit.
