Changing Fiction to Reality
The Space Race will force us to drop the word “fiction” from so many things that used to be just sci-fi.
Case in point: Tesla’s Optimi becoming Von Neumann probes that can replicate themselves using raw materials found in space.
NOTE: Wall Street only includes Tesla’s Earth-based business in its forecasts & valuations.
"Your artificial meritocracy of Excel spreadsheets is propped up by millions of Americans with guns protecting you from the natural meritocracy of extreme violence" might be one of the best tweets ever
“China quality bad” is weapons grade cope.
The fact is that China has a grid that powers the largest manufacturing base the world has ever seen, and we do not.
Theirs works. Ours doesn’t.
If their grid doesn’t meet our standards, consider that perhaps our standards are stupid.
It’s actually insane what SpaceX is doing to the space industry right now
In 1981, it cost ~$65,000 to put 1 kg into orbit
For 50 years, the industry accepted this as the standard. Reusable rockets were "impossible"
Then one company - led by a man obsessed with getting humanity to Mars, decided that $65,000/kg was unacceptable
Right now, Elon and the SpaceX team are building Starship to hit $10–$20/kg
That is a massive ~4,000x price collapse
It’s actually wild that we get to watch this happen in real time
