You build a satellite on the planet, you have to build it bulletproof, which is like 60% of the cost, because it has to be able to be folded into a tight little ball that fits into the top of a rocket, and it's an incredibly violent ride to space. The vibrations and the g-forces would break apart anything that's not bulletproof, okay? So that takes a lot of money and time. Then in seven minutes,

That satellite is in space, in this beautiful sanctity of space where there's nothing to get in its way. And then it has to unfold like an origami. But if any of those explosive bolts or pulleys or levers go bad or don't unfold properly because of the violent ride to space, it's a total loss. And that's a total loss of like $350 million to $500 million for a satellite.

And then, adding to that, when you run out of gas, it becomes space junk, meaning now you gotta build a whole new satellite in the old model. What Spacebuilt does is we, think of it like a Lego box. Instead of building a delicate Lego ship, then putting it on the handlebars of your bike and going over a rocky road to your destination,

or building a ship in Kansas and dragging it across the Appalachian Mountains to put it in the ocean, you build the ship in the ocean. Or you take the Lego blocks up to space and you snap them together in space assembly and manufacturing. So all those Lego blocks now are resilient. You drop a box of Legos on the floor and none of them break because there's no coupling loads.

and you can snap it together and you're just fine. Same is true with space. We can load all these Lego parts in any rocket, send it up to space, snap them together using robotics and laser communication so our engineers on the ground can see and operate just like a surgeon can do surgery from LA to New York because of fiber optic cables. Laser communication is like fiber optic cables on steroids.

And now you can build satellites for cheaper, okay? You don't have to spend all the money to make them bulletproof. You can build them bigger, and with big aperture and big power, now you can get big return on investment.

And when you need to put in a new computer, you just slide out the old computer board, slide in a new one with those robotic mechanics that are servicing the satellites, and you can upgrade indefinitely in this beautiful sanctity of space.
