@XFreeze Impressive for the purpose it serves but mass transit is the only answer to de-congest busy rush hour city traffic.

@FPasselli94 @ImadeIyamu The only gold rush that has endured is gold rush itself. Everything else has been transitory :)

Super Heavy has been a pretty remarkable booster. Ten straight essentially perfect ascents, three catches/landings, and two reuses.

Few days before our team got a chance to meet Secretary of CBSE Shri Himanshu Gupta IAS regarding International Space Science Olympiad facilitated by @INSPACeIND and inaugurated by Honourable Joint secretary Shri Lochan Sehra sir @LochanSehra .In this meeting we discussed on how space education will create an impact on our younger generation and how will they see their career in space domain as our Honourable Prime Minister @narendramodi already mentioned on National Space Day 2025.
Now it’s time to take a first step ,participate in international space science Olympiad and compete with talents across the world.
Thanks to our education promoters and global colloborators.

I think yesterday’s post sparked more debate than anything I have previously shared..it is probably worth a bit of clarification as I am a make nuance great again kind of guy. After this novel, I will take a break from longform for a bit.

If I have one overriding political position (and I hope we all share it) it is the competitiveness of the nation. This grew after I started my defense aerospace company in 2011--where our job was flying fighter jets as adversaries to help prepare and train US military pilots. I saw the pace of progress from potential adversaries, across multiple domains--and it is unsettling. We have a real geopolitical competitor, and competition is great..as long as we don't lose!

My post yesterday was not about one power source over another. I am not dying on a hill for solar, coal or nuclear (though I do very much support making nuclear great again..even in space). What matters is that we can afford to generate enough energy (we don't want to lose in power-hungry AI)--and most importantly is that we can take on big, bold endeavors again without taking decades and billions more than expected.

We don't have a world war or a cold war creating the urgency, but the risk to national security is still present. We need to return to the mindset that defined us during the Manhattan Project, the dawn of supersonic flight, the USS Nautilus, the Space Race and early supercomputers. Today’s equivalents are hypersonics, AI, quantum, fully reusable rockets, robotics and new nuclear--and we should be really concerned about falling behind.

The list of major projects that are 10+ years late and billions over budget keeps growing:

- A single Ford-class aircraft carrier
- The NextGen air traffic control program (started in 2003!)
- Ballistic missile sub and ICBM replacement programs
- The Artemis return-to-the-Moon program
- California high-speed rail
- The KC-46 tanker
- A single nuclear reactor at a power plant
- The original Hudson River tunnels were built between 1905–1910 for the equivalent of ~$3B today. The replacement will take 25 years and $15B for a single tunnel..and I would bet the over on costs.

Some blame regulatory burdens, bureaucracy, or grift--(and they are not wrong) but there are some companies literally financially incentivized to drag projects out for as long as possible! But there is also a cultural problem. I saw it during my NASA prep and in conversations across government--we lack extreme ownership, we take fewer risks and convince ourselves that bold endeavors just can’t be done--at least not on the timelines or costs we used to achieve.

I believe the President and his administration are trying to course correct in an imperfect system--he is setting ambitious goals for Mars, pushing to make nuclear great again, issuing executive orders to accelerate drone adoption, opening up supersonic corridors and empowering leaders to overhaul and unleash the scientific potential of our nation. But efforts like these are easily lost in a sea of polarizing headlines alongside job and budget cuts.

America has long led the world economically, scientifically, militarily--but that won’t continue by default. I am grateful for the companies and their investors trying to seize this moment--I’ll spare the names, but those I have met in commercial space, nuclear startups, automation and robotics, supersonic airliners, eVTOL aircraft and the players disrupting the defense primes are all helping move us in the right direction. Hopefully it happen fast enough, because we can just do big, bold things again.

[sanjeev sharma @SharmaSnjv]

@DJSnM A more interesting question is what happens to the scale if the drone accelerates in ascent or descent :)

[Jared Isaacman @rookisaacman]

A bit of clarification--though I don’t think my circumstances are particularly interesting or consequential. That said, and regardless of the points below, the President is entitled to assemble the leadership team he believes will best serve his administration.

I have been relatively apolitical--a right-leaning moderate--and my political donations across both parties (though 10x more to Republicans) were disclosed in writing, with rationale, before my nomination was ever submitted to the Senate.

As for the perceived conflict--I only know Elon professionally, but having flown to space twice on SpaceX rockets, I have a firsthand appreciation for what he and his companies have accomplished. It is also worth pointing out that SpaceX remains the only way American astronauts have been able to travel to and from orbit since the Space Shuttle was retired in 2011. I hold no direct or indirect equity in SpaceX--or in any aerospace or defense company for that matter. Like all nominees, I signed an ethics letter and would have honored it.

Personally, I don’t regret anything--it was an honor to even be considered by the President. I loved DC and my brief time in the arena. The real disappointment is the time lost by Senators and staff who invested six months into a confirmation process that was ultimately withdrawn. This leaves NASA without a confirmed leader for what may stretch on for over a year. That is not ideal for the world’s most accomplished space agency--or for America--especially as our geopolitical rivals move at impressive speeds to overtake our edge in the high ground of space. Hopefully, a new nominee will emerge soon as NASA needs leadership during this uncertain time.

I have been lucky to live the American Dream and if you know anything about me--you know this was never about political ambition, personal gain or enriching others. I love my country and I care deeply about America’s competitiveness and leadership in space. 🇺🇸

Each Starlink satellite contains 3 space lasers (Optical Intersatellite Links or ISLs) operating at up to 200 Gbps, which together across the constellation form a global internet mesh that can connect customers anywhere in the world.
