Really fun to interview my old friend Bret Johnsen in Mission Control.

Three parts of the @SpaceX story that I wish were more widely discussed:

SpaceX has created thousands of good blue-collar jobs: welders, machinists, electricians. Everyone talks about the need to bring high-paying, blue-collar jobs back to America. SpaceX and Tesla are making that happen. To the best of my knowledge, they have created more manufacturing jobs in the US than just about any other American company over the last ten years. It’s hard to imagine our nascent industrial renaissance succeeding without these companies.

SpaceX was started with the goal of putting humans on Mars. And along the way, they have massively improved life for many humans on Earth. Mars may be a starter planet, but Earth is our planet, and the technologies developed at SpaceX are already in use today connecting and safeguarding the people of Earth. Starlink is a really efficient way to bring internet to low-income countries. In Kenya’s remote Murang’a County, Starlink has made it possible for patients in rural villages to consult with medical specialists via telemedicine. In the rainforests of Brazil, Starlink has connected schools to reliable high-speed internet that will provide more educational opportunities to students. Here in America, Starlink has proven vital to emergency teams responding to natural disasters. During Hurricane Helene, the Starlink hubs dropped into North Carolina and East Tennessee were often the only contact point between cut-off towns and the outside world. Literally life-saving.

This IPO will be a big milestone for the company. It’s important to celebrate this, while also remembering that making humanity multi-planetary is the ultimate goal. Going to Mars is really hard. There have been many setbacks thus far, ranging from fiery explosions to failed landings. There will be many more. Ad Astra Per Aspera. But SpaceX is at its best *after* a setback imo. Their first 3 launches were “failures”. Had the 4th not succeeded, there might not be a SpaceX today. The company’s success in the face of such daunting odds is a testament to the resilience of the culture and absolute commitment to the mission shared by every employee I’ve ever spoken with. Some of the world’s most talented engineers have chosen to live in Airstreams at Starbase away from their families for weeks on end in service of this goal. I will never forget the welders who told me they signed every weld because they wanted to be accountable if they were responsible for a failure. True missionaries, all of them.

I am grateful to every single person at SpaceX for helping to make the future as inspirational as possible. And I will be even more grateful if I get to see a blue sunset on Mars!

Coming soon: one of history’s most complex missions

Tune in on Tuesday, June 9, at 11am ET, to meet the astronauts flying aboard Artemis III, the mission that will test docking capabilities with commercial landers in low Earth orbit — an important step to crewed lunar landings.

[Dr Singularity @Dr_Singularity]

A new system is coming, and it's coming soon.

Almost everything will change: work, medicine, science, money, education, cities, bodies, intelligence, and daily life.

We are moving toward Star Trek level technology and lifestyles.

But we won't stop there.

Star Trek will be only the floor, not the ceiling.

We are going far beyond it.

The growth of the economy is heavily bound by humanity's will and desire to bring the future forward.

The more humans we have who have a will or desire - for whatever reason - to make things faster, cheaper, higher quality, etc, the faster the total economy will grow.

But if we have AI Agents - both physical and digital - whose goals are to grow the size of the economy by UNDERSTANDING what our wills and desires are, then the growth of the economy can accelerate significantly.

This is because AI Agents are not bound by the same weaknesses or pitfalls that humans have when it comes to growing the economy - like being distracted, getting sick, life circumstances, being heartbroken, and countless other reasons.

This means that as long as AI Agents are aligned with humanity's wills and desires - and it doesn't end up going rogue - the economy is bound to explode.

Which means that as long as the NEW value created by AI Agents is able to propagate through the economy as quickly as possible, then the quality of life for the average person will SIGNIFICANTLY increase in the coming years.

This fundamentally requires three things:

1. AI progress must continue unimpeded.
2. It needs to be aligned with humanity's wills and desires.
3. Laws & Regulations cannot create incentives that either a) force the value creation to be accrued around a small number of people or b) slows down or halts progress of the technology.

I believe 1. is going extremely well with all the insane competition between companies. This should continue.

Now we are entering phases 2. and 3., which will require the alignment between the heads of these AI companies, politicians across every aisle, and the citizens of the jurisdictions these politicians represent.

For this to go well, I think it's EXTREMELY IMPORTANT for the heads of the AI companies to deliver on the promise of Abundance as early and as quickly as possible so that 2 and 3 can auto-align.

Some ideas:

- Data center companies pay for electricity and water bills for residents who live in the zip codes that they are approved in.
- Trump accounts get auto-funded with shares in AI companies.
- Self-driving & humanoid robot companies offer free rides for a certain # of miles or hours as community service.

There's a thousand different things you can do. But it is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT for people to FEEL the Age of Abundance early and often. This will massively break down the walls and barriers between the public and AI companies in the US, and will transform not only the public's perception - but the world.

Elon Musk’s ultimate goal for the future of humanity:

• Humanity as a thriving, multi-planetary species
• An economy of total abundance powered by AI & robotics
• Uninterrupted global connectivity
• Maximum personal freedom with zero government oppression
• A growing population to sustain the light of consciousness

A world where anything you can imagine, you can have it

There is a lot going on right now on the @Space_Station, but fortunately we are all safe and witnessed a spectacular southern aurora show yesterday thanks to a recent solar event.

SpaceX has just announced that they have entered into a $920 million per month agreement with Google to provide compute capacity, according to a new filing.

"On June 5, 2026, we entered into a Cloud Service Agreement with Google with respect to access to compute capacity. The customer has agreed to pay us $920 million per month from October 2026 through June 2029, with capacity ramping up through September at a reduced fee. The compute capacity provided includes approximately 110,000 NVIDIA GPUs, CPUs, memory, and other related components.

After December 31, 2026, the agreement may be terminated by either party upon 90 days' notice. The customer will retain ownership of, and intellectual property rights in, its content, Al models, and related data."
