A highlight from The Engineering Challenge of Rapidly Reusable Rockets
"200 years ago, we were sailing around on wooden tall ships. That's how we got across oceans. And in those days, transportation was slow, expensive, and unreliable. And in many ways, those are exactly the three words that describe space transportation. You know, you'd never throw away a 737 after every single flight, right? That's pretty obvious. And so the same thing is true with rocketry. There's no reason you would want to throw away the vehicle if you didn't have to. Start asking yourself questions. What are the important problems that need to be solved? And how can I go and do this in a way that's a sustainable business? We're in like the 1930s and 40s for space. We have a lot of different ideas that are being tested. And in my opinion, mastering the first stage reuse and the second stage reuse are the two ingredients that are going to lead to mega consolidation and then also a healthy and thriving economy. Hi, everyone, and welcome back to the A16Z podcast. This is part two of our mini series on the booming satellite economy. In part one, we spoke with Astronis co -founder John Gedmark about the opportunity to build smaller satellites in geostationary orbit and who's actually buying that satellite capability. But ultimately, in order to build this computation shell around Earth full of thousands of satellites, rocket usability is an important unlock. So today we're joined by Andy Lapsa, co -founder of Stokespace, who after spending over a decade at Blue Origin is now on a mission to build fully and rapidly reusable rockets with the hopes of reusing both stages and also allowing daily reusability. Like Astronis, Stoke is growing quickly and also has customers in both the commercial and government sectors. And if you need any convincing of just how hard this engineering challenge is, well, the original launches of the Falcon 1 failed due to things as small as a corroded nut. And between launches, it might take as much as a year to get something back in the sky. So what are we looking at now in terms of testing cycles, given that we're on Falcon 9 and also new companies like Stoke are trying to get in on the action? So listen in as Andy gives us a glimpse into this truly outworldly engineering challenge of not just getting to space, but also doing so reliably over and over and over again.

began by asking whether the strong top line and the strongest top line in 15 years was actually a sweet spot for UBS have a listen to the big interview On one side you see risk on the other side you see the investment sentiment investor sentiment to be a little bit around the inflation numbers that are coming up and are seeking advice as to okay how do we best protect really well against upcoming inflation Wait where do you see inflation top of middle of next year seems to be the building consensus Do you agree Same here If you look at the underlying factors called any inflation it's clear the energy prices It is some of the supply chain hiccups that we see It is a bit of the friction in the labor markets that we see as well We do expect you know the consumers spent to move away from goods to services that should help lift the tension on some of these as well And at that moment we also feel that the supply chain is probably up and running again Demand will be a bit lower than for those goods And then hopefully we'll get in a more balanced situation and then the inflation will come down To China we're trying to glean leaders like you you're taking where we are The ever ground exposure your direct exposure is immaterial You've told that to the market I want to get a sense from you as has the worst past in China with ever grand and the reorchestration of the economy While they just announced the move to a common prosperity right In terms of their policy So I do think there is probably more policy changes as part of that coming through This time it was around the property market I do think it's going to be also around healthcare is going to be about some social welfare as well in terms of unemployment benefits building a pension system et cetera et cetera et cetera So I do think more changes will come to the market Those will be all incremental Some will have negative effects on the life very positive effects So for us we will go through that We've been

Branson, Bezos, Musk: The Billionaire Space Race
"Richard branson's being outed longer than the others. Seventeen years or so since richard branson. I announced his ambitions. Two thousand four. When virgin galactic was started. I think back then the intention walls within three or four years. They be doing what they've only just done now of of taking passengers into space but for him dates back and he. He talks about this a lot. Doesn't it back to nineteen sixty nine and watching the moon landing a teenager. We choose to go to the moon and and do the other thing not because they are easy being taken outside by his dad and the pointing up at the moon and realizing there were two men up there east folks at one of those men buzz aldrin in the nineties and and talked about the idea of using plane rather than a traditional rocket as so. The idea is been fermenting for a long time lot of setbacks on the way of course. I think a lot of us wonder whether this would ever happen. He's proved he can do it. And i think that for him is why this is so emotionally significant but also practically significant in a business sense as well. Let's go through the others then we go elon. Musk of tesla. Fame with space. X.'s dragon capsule and he's the best known for his space ambitions around the world. Think just because of his global profile that he has and has had a lot of success with the commercial side of this deals with nasa of taking things up into orbital space which of course is much further than branson or some of the tourism operations are going and has talked in perhaps much greater ambition. About what could be done. He's talked about colonizing mars. Easy said he wants to go to mars. he's also said people might die. Going to mars but ambitions seemed to be much bigger and grander than just space tourism. And someone who through his life has solve the big problems as he's seen them around the world and this is one he sees that needs to be solved by the private sector. Then making up the triumvirate. Jeff bezos of amazon fame. What of his ambitions. what's his rocket. Program is interesting isn't because he there's far less publicity with with. Jeff bezos a blue origin. The company that will take him into space has been around for twenty years so longer than branson's virgin galactic but his plans all rooted much further back than that he he talks of colonizing space of building these holds where trillions of people can live something. It's thought he took from a professor. He had at princeton physicist. Who came up with his idea in the seventies so he has these grand ambitions that pass.
