1 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, radio news. This is Bloomberg Business 2 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:13,840 Speaker 1: Week with Carol Masser and tim Stenoveek on Bloomberg Radio. 3 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,759 Speaker 2: Well, lots of news in the world of space. There was, 4 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 2: of course Artemis two last week. We've got our colleague 5 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,080 Speaker 2: Luren Grush reporting this week that NASA may not of 6 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,439 Speaker 2: those new lunar space suits ready by the time the 7 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 2: agency hopes to lend humans back on the Moon in 8 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 2: twenty twenty eight. That's according to a new audit to 9 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 2: work on that, but there's some good news. 10 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,639 Speaker 3: It takes time. NASA also this week unveiling its next 11 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 3: generation space observatory that happened on Tuesday. The Nancy Grace 12 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 3: Roman Space Telescope now fully assembled ahead of its planned 13 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,599 Speaker 3: launch as early as this fault. There's a lot going 14 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 3: on in this space. And what's funny is it was 15 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 3: quiet for a while. You know, you go back decades 16 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 3: and there was just this space race. But it got 17 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 3: quiet for a while, and then the private guys got 18 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 3: into it, and it's just fun to see so much 19 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 3: activity once again. 20 00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 2: We're doing a deep dive on the world of space. 21 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 2: We've got Ross Hamilton with US Chief Operating Officer of 22 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 2: the Space Network. It has the mission to quote advance 23 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 2: the commercial growth of the global space sector and integrate 24 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 2: space technology across all industries. He's also the author of 25 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 2: the new book Everything Is Flying From Ancient Skies to 26 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 2: Deep Space, How Space Technology Shapes Life on Earth. Also 27 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 2: on Earth with us here in the Bloomberg Interactive Broker's. 28 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 3: Studio, it doesn't seem to want to go into space. 29 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 2: That's okay, that's a note. Well, yeah, we got Ed 30 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 2: Ludlow with us. He joins us here for just a 31 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,039 Speaker 2: little bit more before he goes back to San Francisco 32 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 2: because he covers all things space here at Bloomberg. Welcome 33 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 2: to both of you. Appreciate you joining us. Russ I 34 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 2: just want to start a big picture ED reports all 35 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 2: the time on the private space industry, SpaceX, the IPO, 36 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 2: when that is going to happen, what that will mean 37 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 2: in the moves of these companies. Where do you think 38 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 2: we are in this moment right now? 39 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 4: I think we're in a very pivotual moment. You know, 40 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 4: if you've alluded to the commercial space guys are starting 41 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 4: to really kind of you lift off now. And I 42 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 4: think with what Artemis represents and what SpaceX is doing. 43 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 4: I think you're going to see a big, big change. 44 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:06,559 Speaker 4: I do think that the space XIPO represents a fundamental shift. 45 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,959 Speaker 4: Whatever investors think of the valuation of that, I think 46 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 4: you're going to see a lot of spin out from SpaceX. Similarly, 47 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 4: you know, now that Artemis two has completed the it's 48 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 4: mission it's really about putting humans back onto Mars and 49 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 4: of course the Moon. And I think what the administrator, 50 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,679 Speaker 4: Jared Asigmann is saying is that NASA is back in 51 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:36,399 Speaker 4: the exploration business, which means the low Earth orbit where 52 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 4: all the commercial obrans are is now open even more 53 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 4: so for commercial companies. And you're seeing that, you know, 54 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 4: SpaceX and rocket Lab and Amazon are all starting to 55 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 4: put stuff into the commercial space, you know, low Earth orbit. 56 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 4: And I think there's lots of opportunity now given the 57 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 4: fact that NASA is essentially acting as a customer in 58 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 4: the low Earth orbit space. 59 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 3: It is kind of interesting and the dynamics how it's changed. 60 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 3: I mean, you've been at the launches, you've been reporting 61 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 3: on the space for a while. What are you seeing 62 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 3: in terms of We obviously talk a lot about the 63 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 3: big companies and the big players that are out there, 64 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 3: but there's a lot of other companies. 65 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's interesting that, you know Ross's kind of summary 66 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 5: of Jaredizingman at the helm of NASA, right, NASA has 67 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 5: become a bit more like the project manager rather than 68 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 5: the customer itself. 69 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 3: And like. 70 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 5: The way that Jaredizingmen reframe it is that NASA does 71 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 5: the science experiments, the stuff in the lab that is 72 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 5: almost on the verge of science fiction that has no 73 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 5: commercial logic or even viability, and that leaves space pardon 74 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 5: the pun for the private sector to come in and 75 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 5: do the things that are achievable the mission goals in 76 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 5: the near term. So that has been very, very interesting. 77 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 5: And you know, Artemis to end to end was a 78 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 5: great success, right, even if it was slightly behind schedule 79 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 5: and many billions of dollars over budget, And so now 80 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 5: you know, the burden of proof is on all of 81 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 5: those stakeholders to execute on the next phases of it. 82 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 4: I think that's an interesting part of it Artemis is 83 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 4: it's not just NASA, right, There's tens and tens of 84 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 4: countries and hundreds of companies involved in that, so it 85 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 4: really is a bit collaboration and ISAAMA recently said that, 86 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 4: you know, this is no longer about years before we 87 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:23,799 Speaker 4: go back to the moon. This is about months. 88 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: Now. 89 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 4: We've got to be thinking in months and versus years, 90 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 4: which means they have to collaborate with industry, which creates 91 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 4: opportunity for everyone who's in that entire supply chain. 92 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 3: I want to ask you, though, my dad was involved 93 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 3: in the space race back in the fifties and sixties, 94 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 3: working for a little company called Bendix that became Allied Signal, 95 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 3: that became Honeywell. But it was all about doing you know, 96 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 3: guidance systems. 97 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 5: But it was. 98 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 3: But it is amazing and it's just fascinating to see, 99 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 3: Like I always think about these rockets coming back and landing. 100 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 3: He would be blown away. He's not around anymore. But 101 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 3: we grew up with this. But there was that collaboration 102 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 3: that you did have government first of all, it was 103 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 3: a government initiative, and then you brought in all these 104 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 3: you know, contractors, right, So what is different about that 105 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 3: you see the collaboration that you talk about that might 106 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 3: have been different from years past. Was it just because 107 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 3: the government was leading it versus maybe now the private sectors. 108 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 4: Leading it more so? I think there's a few factors. 109 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 4: I mean, you know, let's not discount the involvement of 110 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 4: SpaceX NASA, particularly around this idea about reusable vehicles. That's 111 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 4: driven down the cost, which makes it more accessible, which 112 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 4: means more people can put stuff up in space. Yeah, 113 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 4: you know, that's definitely been a big factor. But it 114 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 4: has come in phases. You know, you talk about the 115 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 4: sixties and early seventies, and then we didn't because the 116 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 4: Cold War was kind of you know, over, and then 117 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 4: there was the eighties, you know, with the Shuttle, and 118 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 4: then we had some fortunately some disasters. But I really 119 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 4: think it did take you know, the vision of people 120 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 4: like Elon to kind of kind of fire this back 121 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 4: up again. But it's always been there. And I think 122 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 4: one thing that's that's driving things now, which does drive 123 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 4: the national space sector is national security. 124 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 3: Interesting. 125 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 4: If you think about how modern military warfare is conducted 126 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 4: and how global logistics are conducted, much of that is 127 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 4: through space technology. And the interesting thing is, look at 128 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 4: all that military development has created these spinouts for the 129 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 4: retail and consumer sector. 130 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 2: Not to mention future opportunities with Golden Dome for example, right, 131 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 2: and companies getting involved with that. I want to ask 132 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 2: both of you this question. I want to start with 133 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 2: with you ed Sem but you you know, Ross put 134 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 2: the money where it goes, you know, investing in some 135 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 2: of these companies, the opportunities in the near term versus 136 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 2: the long term. Yeah, you know, a few years ago 137 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 2: more in Stanley out with this big space economy report, 138 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 2: trillion dollars by twenty forty is what we could see 139 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 2: and talk about mining and all these things of like 140 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 2: you know, landing craft on asteroids and getting raw materials 141 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 2: and those sorts of things. That's a very different scenario 142 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 2: than you know, getting wireless internet to people on airplanes quickly, 143 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: you know, And there's a lot of space between those 144 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 2: those different types of goals, but that's all included in 145 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 2: this idea of a space of copy. 146 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 5: Well like here and now, the vast majority of SpaceX's 147 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 5: revenues in the calendar year twenty six will be starlink, 148 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 5: you know, and it will be nearer to twenty billion 149 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 5: dollars when last year it was you know, ten to 150 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 5: fifteen billion dollars. And we're well past the point with 151 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 5: SpaceX as an example where starlink is more than fifty 152 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 5: percent versus launch. I will not speak on Ross's behalf, 153 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 5: but the point of his book, while it pays due 154 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 5: respect to history, is that you know, the space economy 155 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 5: now is not just rockets and astronauts. The value of 156 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 5: data is very key. Even in that Morgan Stanley report 157 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 5: about the trillion by twenty thirty five or twenty forty launch, 158 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 5: part of it is so small. The bigger picture, right 159 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 5: is like, you know, the geopolitical we're racing China to 160 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 5: the moon. That's a great impetus at a nation state 161 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 5: level to get going. But Blue origins Raisin Detri if 162 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 5: SpaceX's whole original thing was to make human kind multiplanetary species, 163 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 5: you know, Jeff Bezos and Blues thing is like there's 164 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 5: a lot of valuable stuff on the Moon and in asteroids, 165 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 5: we should go after it, and you know the world 166 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 5: needs those kinds of reasons. 167 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 4: I mean, I definitely think the icetroid thing is is 168 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 4: a long term and we can discuss whether it's practical 169 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 4: or not. But I do think there are things you 170 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 4: are much closer to home. So for example, mining the moon. 171 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 4: You're right, it is a race to the south pole 172 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 4: of the Moon. We know China are looking to do 173 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 4: that and Why are they doing that Because there's frozen water, 174 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 4: there's ice there. Well, how do you get the ice, Well, 175 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 4: you need power, you need nuclear So there's a whole 176 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 4: supply chain of things required to do that in the 177 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 4: shorter term, and then closer to Earth, when you think 178 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 4: about what's happening. I was listening to the TV earlier 179 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 4: and we were talking about AI data centers. That's going 180 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 4: to be one of the things that's happening in space 181 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 4: as well. 182 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 3: You think it's a given, it's just a matter of time. 183 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 4: I think as a matter of time, I can't tell 184 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 4: you when. There's definitely some technological hurdles and there's probably 185 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 4: some regulatory hurdles on that. But I think for sure 186 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,599 Speaker 4: there's a lot of advantage to putting of AI processing 187 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,559 Speaker 4: up in space because space is driving a lot of 188 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 4: our lives. So rather than beaming it back down, and 189 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 4: when there's lots of power available up in space, why 190 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 4: not do it up in space. 191 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 2: So then the opportunities ross for investors. You talk to 192 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 2: these companies all the time, you know it's. 193 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 4: Yeah developed, right, So it's a mixed bag. So I mean, 194 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 4: like you've obviously got the big the big guys at 195 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 4: SpaceX and the IPO, and everyone wants to be a 196 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 4: piece of that. I actually think the interesting things on 197 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 4: the other end of the market. I think there's a 198 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 4: lot of really fascinating deep tech companies that are coming out. 199 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 4: Our companies Space Network. We focus on the commercialization of 200 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 4: space tech companies, which means helping find capital, customers, partners, suppliers, 201 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 4: and talent. And I think the challenge for the space 202 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 4: industry thus far has been a space for space ake 203 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,239 Speaker 4: and I think now that we see that the opportunity 204 00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 4: is for pharmaceuticals and agriculture and non space industries to 205 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 4: use space technology. That's the opportunity. But what we need 206 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 4: to do is get the non physicist, the non engineers 207 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 4: involved really think about commercialization, you know, the business people, 208 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 4: the marketing people, the construction people. And that's kind of 209 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 4: part of the book was how do we expose and 210 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 4: educate to a broader market that this is something that 211 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 4: is happening, and how do we get the young talent 212 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 4: and people motivated and get involved in this. So again 213 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 4: that's not like a short term play, right, but five 214 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 4: to ten years this stuff is literally taking off. 215 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 5: What he means is like the corp dev team, corporate development. 216 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 5: He say corporate development. Ima, Now it's a corporate development 217 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 5: comment into. 218 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 2: A line item. 219 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 3: But I do think about education because you know, my 220 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 3: dad was an engineer. Everybody talked to Tom Keene, I 221 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 3: think his dad was an engineer. There was an era 222 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 3: where there were so many people studying science engineer like 223 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 3: trying to understand this and the applications and the potential. 224 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 2: But there was also a national alignment insutry. 225 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 3: Absolutely, and so you do wonder. 226 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 4: I mean, I went full circle. So I studied there 227 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 4: and artical engineering at university. I was going to work 228 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,200 Speaker 4: for Rojoizero Engines, and I get hired by JP Morgan. 229 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 4: So I ended up in the finance and tech creator. 230 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,719 Speaker 4: But guess what, I'm back. But the point was new 231 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 4: enough working with these companies, the space tech companies, that 232 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 4: they are not articulating their value proposition properly. 233 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, this is Jared Eisaman's pitch though as well. Right, 234 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 5: Like part of his portfolio as a NASA administrator is 235 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 5: he has flown around the country since he was confirmed, 236 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 5: trying to encourage kid as a kid people to go 237 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 5: from college and work. Vanessa, right, you know that and again. 238 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 5: They want to be the lab, the research arm. But 239 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 5: that's it's trying to get people to fall back in 240 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 5: love with the idea again and have a career in it. 241 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 3: It's pretty cool stuff. This was fun. Thank you, Thank 242 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 3: you so much.
