sort of walk me through some of the trade-offs and economic considerations about getting to the moon, because we just saw with the Artemis launch that a single rocket seemed to be able to just fly right up there, come back.

And then when I see the Starship plan, I'm like,

as big or bigger rocket, it should just be able to go straight there.

But then when I see the actual plans, it's like seven different refueling stages.

And it seems much more complicated.

And it seems like you have the ability to potentially get to the moon with certain plans.

And so it feels like there's an ensemble approach.

There's different trade-offs.

Like what is the logic as we try and get to the moon more regularly?

How will this actually play out?

So you have the money raised.

What are you actually working on in terms of creating reliable manufacturing, your supply chain?

Because I imagine that it's not enough to build one prototype, a few prototypes, something hand-built.

That might be something you're experimenting with in the early stages, but the name of the game is industrial capacity here.

What do the next few years look like in terms of scale?

And take me through the shape of that vertical integration.

Are you buying tube bending machines, CNC machines, 3D printers?

What is the shape of vertical integration?

Are you building specific machinery that will just make one product over and over and over again?

So like raw materials in and you get the finished product eventually.
