Shoutout to the Iran team for carrying that weight.

You promoted your best salesperson to sales manager.
Six months later, they're struggling, and you're wondering what went wrong.

For those unaware, SpaceX has already shifted focus to building a self-growing city on the Moon, as we can potentially achieve that in less than 10 years, whereas Mars would take 20+ years.
The mission of SpaceX remains the same: extend consciousness and life as we know it to the stars.
It is only possible to travel to Mars when the planets align every 26 months (six month trip time), whereas we can launch to the Moon every 10 days (2 day trip time). This means we can iterate much faster to complete a Moon city than a Mars city.
That said, SpaceX will also strive to build a Mars city and begin doing so in about 5 to 7 years, but the overriding priority is securing the future of civilization and the Moon is faster.
Today, January 7, we mark what would have been the 81st birthday of the Right Honourable Raila Odinga, a patriot whose life was defined by courage, sacrifice, and an unyielding love for Kenya.
Baba taught us, time and again, that the country must always come before self, that no ambition is greater than our unity, and no victory more important than our peace.
He believed deeply in Kenya and never lost faith that our best days lie ahead. Whether in struggle or reconciliation, he chose stability over chaos, unity over division, and hope over despair.
As we remember him on his birthday, we celebrate not just the man but the enduring lessons he left us: To close ranks for the common good, to rise above partisanship, and to keep faith in the Kenyan dream.
