Yeah, so we're going after what are called the platinum group metals, right?

Very critical resource we all use here on Earth, but they're also worth a lot of money.

And why asteroids?

Well...

Some of the best ore sources we've ever discovered of the platinum group metals are orbiting us in space.

It's a very specific type of asteroid called a metal asteroid that we're going to go after, mine, and bring it back to Earth.

Look, when you're going to go do something like attempt to mine asteroids or go travel to the cosmos, you have an option to go do that in a very safe way at a big company you've probably heard of called NASA.

I probably shouldn't call them a company, right?

A big government agency called NASA.

It takes a lot of guts to take highly technical people and have them kind of throw that away and say, I'm going to go join a small startup and go try to explore the universe for a fraction of the cost.

We're going to take a lot more risk to make that happen.

We're probably going to fail multiple times.

But if we can pull it off, we'd change the world.

Those are special people and people that you rarely find.

And those are the people that we hire at Astroforge, right?

We hire the explorers of the future.

And you kind of got to have that genie to make it work.

I mean, how do you find them?

There isn't one simple answer to how do you find talent.

I wish there was because then I would just use it on repeat to find the best talent.
