But we also have the fact that many of these CEOs will say, well, until the government gives me a contract to do this for the country, I'm getting rich in the current method and we're not going to take a lot of business risk. It's a two-edged sword. You need visionary leaders in these companies to also be willing to move forward.

Incrementally, to make our power good resilient now so it's not so vulnerable because we're all victims of vulnerability on the electricity. If we don't have it, chaos breaks out. And to start carving a path to new markets and new technologies to deliver things with greater capability at lower cost. And this is, again, going back to space, why space is so important.

If you don't have companies like Spacebuilt, the one that I started with Dennis Wingo as the key brain that knows how to build space technology for this infrastructure and the capability to build in space that doesn't just run out of gas and become space junk, but is a perpetual business case of construction and logistics in space, The reason we're doing this is because this helps usher in.

If you have leaders that are innovative and that understand the tapestry of politics, of lobbyists, and you can navigate a company like Elon Musk did, and now you can have satellites at a fraction of the cost. You can reduce the cost of satellites 10x and they're reusable. Just like Elon Musk made the cost of launch reduce 10x and they're reusable. It's like aviation to space.

This is how you break through. And it's generally in America, it's the private sector. This is how we can do it. And this is how you can start convincing companies, the big electric companies, to start moving into the future using all of these other... And space will bring us helium-3 energy. What is helium-3 energy? Yeah, so...

Helium-3 is an element that doesn't get to Earth very much because our atmosphere and our gravitational field prevent it from landing on the Earth. So an ounce of Helium-3 on the Earth is very, very expensive, and the business case doesn't really close. But on the Moon or on the asteroids, there's a ton of Helium-3.

And so to give you an example of what it means, if we were to mine the Moon for Helium-3, At the current level of electricity use in America, or not in America, in the globe, we could power the energy needs of the human race for thousands of years based on the helium-3 that's on the moon right now. And so the twist there is China is there on the moon, on the far side of the moon.
