You got it.
So what are the hurdles that still exist to like getting this up and running in space?
Your company has also talked about how space structures can be used for things like agriculture or manufacturing.
How would that work?
That is amazing.
So this kind of work would, I assume, require workers.
Do you envision people farming and doing shift work in orbit?
So would the workers live their lives up there, eating, sleeping, and working, or would they be commuting?
So when I think about commuting, commuting now is like not the best for the environment.
So what about commuting to space?
Is that going to affect our environment as well?
So if there are a lot of launches, like people are commuting up into space, how are we going to deal with space junk and debris?
Speaking of environmental issues and space and junk and pollution, you're exploring building solar panels in space in low Earth orbit, like basically where the International Space Station is.
How would that work?
Yeah, it's too fragile.
Now that you say it's a beam, I'm less scared because when I saw that in like making areas of Earth have light when it is nighttime can be dangerous, right?
Like you could alter seasons.
You could mess up ecosystems, could mess up circadian rhythm.
But you're talking about an actual beam, which sounds kind of super villainy, too.
