  • "Aim high. We have always achieved what we wanted to, never in the the timeline. We fail on timeline, but that feels like the right fail to make as oppose to not achieving what you are trying to achieve technically."
    In this View From The Top, Christopher Stromeyer, MBA '22, sits down with Gwynne Shotwell, President and COO of SpaceX, to discuss balancing ambitious goals, putting people on Mars in a decade, leading collaboratively, and why she likes making decisions with data.
    "You face adversity and I think the only way to get through it is to understand the situation to the greatest extent you can and then be honest with yourself. Pick a path and do it and don't be afraid to say you made a mistake if you make a mistake," says Shotwell.

      Elon Musk is buying Twitter to keep his voice from being silenced. He saw Social Media silence a President of the United States. He also saw that President go thru all the growing pains of creating a Social Media platform from scratch. So buying Twitter seemed the better option. The panic from the left is over CENSORSHIP, they are all for CENSORSHIP, Elon doesn't. I know Musk is a fan of the Babylon Bee and when Twitter banned them and shortly after he made the post about "Do you think Twitter supports freedom of speech" by this time he was buying shares and made the decision.
      To this video. Gwynne Shotwell is amazing. I don't hear anything from the left leaning media about this female executive. She is smart, she is an engineer not a MBA (those are worthless).

      It kills me that of so many common sense voices trying to bring out the truth and details that the MSM is omitting, repressing, censoring, spinning and lying about, the one thing that is either avoided or not known, or suspected but not studied to have a deep understanding, or understand but decide against addressing in their videos for some reason, there IS an ELEPHANT in the political room that HAS TO BE TALKED ABOUT!!!
      I know that MORE PEOPLE are learning about this "ELEPHANT" because I talk to many who see the elephant for what it is!
      We can call the "elephant" the "Deep State", the "Insiders", the "Hidden Oligarchy", the "Comintern", globalist-capitalists, the Cabal, the International Bankers, or the GPS( Global Power Structure" are any number of VAGUE references to men, groups, and conspiratorial evil. BUT, here's what's missing!!! NAMES OF GROUPS! NAMES OF THE MEMBERS OF THESE GROUPS! Links to one another and WHERE these human AGENTS and OPERATIVES are in society are known to FAR TOO FEW CITIZENS! Many are naming and blaming groups like the Illuminati, Bilderberg, Jesuits, Catholic Popes, the Masons, and others. But without clear lines of connections and money flows our understanding of this structure will remain vague and not well known or understood in order to more effectiviely combat their influence and control of government around the world.
      Many of those mentioned are in countries OUTSIDE the U.S. and "international". And yes, they have network ties to associate groups and people inside the U.S.! And THAT'S where Americans... North Americans... need to focus their attention in order to expose and rout the agents of globalism from their spider holes! We are not doing the critical job of FOLLOWING THE MONEY either!!!
      Let's understand things from the point of view as if WE WERE AT THE TOP of this conspiratorial pyramid! WE are the ones with the money to carry out the gradual building of a World Government (that we control) but that humanity thinks is necessary to have a "sustainable world", a "secure world", a world free of "terrorism", "climate change", etc, etc. Of course we have to create various revolutionary fronts and "fear campaigns" (fake and real crises) to minimize the resistance to the implementation of draconian laws, rules, controls and regulations we need to solidify our long-term control of the whole planet - but it won't be easy or fast! We must be as patient as the circumstances exist but we also must push the envelope as hard as we dare without drawing too much attention or "fire" from our targeted victims. And our principle means to accomplish our plans is the control of all information that could indict us or cause us serious trouble! We must control the mass media, all schools of any type, all the "approved" books for use in "our schools" to get our "degrees". We must control every major political party in the U.S.! Even rising 3rd-party "threats". And of course we must control the policy-making departments within the government of the United States itself. And we MUST control the office of the President of the U.S. and not allow any outsider to hold that position. Why? Because the President and his cabinet control the "appointments" to Executive Branch bureaucracies where we need our agents at the top to keep from revealing too much to the public or kick off investigations that cause us too much exposure.
      Congratulations if you have read this far! This subject has been covered in many excellent books, starting with The Shadows of Power by James Perloff, Tragedy and Hope by Carroll Quigley, the Anglo-American Establishment by Carroll Quigley, None Dare Call it Conspiracy by Gary Allen, Global Tyranny by William F. Jasper, the Insiders by John F. McManus, and the best REGULAR source of dependable analysis is The New American magazine!
      www.TheNewAmerican.com
      AMERICA IS BEING SOLD OUT FROM WITHIN!!! And there's one PRINCIPLE group that is at the center! They are known as the CFR! The Council on Foreign Relations based in New York City and formed in 1921 and who's, founder Edward Mendel House, was a traitor and globalist, not a supporter of and defender of our nation's Constitution.
      To get a briefing on their influence and a little of their history, especially relevant to the Trump years, read this article FULLY!
      www.TheNewAmerican.com/cfr-still-the-power-behind-the-throne
      The CFR has had one of their members in the top positions of our government for DECADES. Without exception, the Chairman of the Federal Reserve and many board members have been and are members today! The Secretaries of State and Defense have also been CFR members as well as their "assistant" secretaries, and deeper, and those don't change much from admin to admin! And nearly ever CIA Director has been a CFR member! Every administration starting with Jimmy Carter has had more than 230 CFR members in control of key policies. Obama had 268 and now Biden with over 300 CFR members getting high salaries on the backs of the American taxpayers while they sell us out at EVERY TURN.
      SO, WHY DO THEY HATE TRUMP SO MUCH??? That's indicated by his administration being the SINGLE EXCEPTION from 1976 to 2022 that saw a REDUCTION of CFR members and a SIGNIFICANT reduction at that!!! Trump had/allowed/chose only 100 CFR members to serve in his! TO BE SURE!!! That's 100 TOO MANY! But Trump also successfully planted the concept of "America 1st" and campaigned "against" globalism but without NAMING the GLOBALISTS! (First Big Mistake!)
      If America "recovered" and "prospered" so quickly by ousting CFR agents down to 100... imagine the even greater gains if there were NONE!!!
      READ the ARTICLES ABOVE!!! Search, buy and read the books I mentioned above as well. BELIEVE ME!!! You won't regret the education you will receive from them.
      BOOKMARK the link to The New American magazine and subscribe to it in print! Sign up for their free email ALERTS!
      Good luck my fellow Americans... you going to need it. Faith without works if dead! So ACT!

I understand, though, as we are in a massive transition, where civilization is coming to grips with more changes than any other time in civilization. Once we have moved through this time where we look for what can hurt us, I have faith that the real potential of the love of the human race will surface and we won't be so concerned with every little statement and be more accepting of one another.

    The way SpaceX revolutionaized spaceflight in just a decade is mind numbing. And obviously they are just getting started. Once Starship is operational you can essentially stop flying all other rockets because their price of dollar/ton to orbit will seem ridiculous.

      If/when Starship becomes operational, it will inspire/force other companies to at least be comparable in capability. Otherwise, there would literally be no excuse for their existence, except to serve the political/ideological needs of those financing it. The real question is, will the existence of an operational Starship drive demand for the use and expansion of space infrastructure? Having the ability and utilizing the ability to full effect are two wildly different things.

      @@i3_13 no. That's not correct. A Starship launch is projected to cheaper (2 million) than the current cost of an Electron launch (7.5 million). Even if you only want to launch 300 kg, it's going to be cheaper to hire a whole Starship launch. Of course that might change when Rocket Lab nails reusability, but they're still planning on expending the upper stage, so I think there will still be a cost per launch advantage to SpaceX. Even for very small payloads. When you consider the launch frequency... There's no comparison. Starship will launch more often per day than Rocket Lab launches in a year.
      That's before you consider the cost of miniaturisation of a cubesat, and the cost of the dispenser. With Starship you can have the same container that you used to freight the satellite to the launch simply put aboard the Starship and have a person unpack it, switch it on and shove it out the door once you're on orbit. That's at least tens and probably hundreds of thousands saved on that alone. Plus with size and weight not an issue, it's cheaper to build, can have more powerful transmitters for more data and have larger off the shelf instruments plus greater redundancy and more fuel for a longer service life. For less money.

    Gwynne - You nailed it. I love camping.
    Excellent story I am sure it was a happy accident that it begins at 4:20
    edit: It isn't until oh 20:00 minutes later I realize - "She is a good witch." such things do exist. woh
    8:37 the word we are looking for is: grovel
    On the other side of the pond they drink warm beer too. But in pints. Works for me.
    I could write a dissertation on this video alone.
    "broken strut" Gwynne say the words it is healing. The amazing work was that the cameras inside gathered enough data and transmitted it before it all disintegrated. Vanishing rocket theory.
    The anxiety is expected I call it Payload pain. It is the cost to the customer that really pain's us. We also need to see our boss is human. I respect that, soft underbelly, the vulnerability of the individual and willingness to "bare it all." Do not be ashamed of being who you are. I understand, don't cry in front of the customer or staff. Okay.
    Hint: Drink more water - push a big glass of water and a couple of aspirin before going to bed. Passing out. Evidently champagne pink and white and Cold Duck. Not a good mix. Ever play "thumper?" Yea, I will never forget the sound of the keys jingling the next morning. We learn. I am pretty sure I only did that once.
    I diverge.
    Notes yes I took notes.
    22:33 Please spin diagnostics
    22:52 Woh,, -- pay attention here children -- she said something really important. Now extrapolate that. Spoiler alert. Who or what can make a 4000 year journey? Oh, my AMAIE --- Introduce yourself
    I see it plain as day. Good news. Thank you.
    19:10 Stakeholder quote from the TOC taken out of context. Interesting the Lessons Learned are far more important than gossip. The resolution of the story had a twist and resolved far differently than I expected.
    I read on my notes: Neat 30:24 "Call me." There is so much depth in this message. It could be me but this bit, clip, segment, episode is a cross road. A number of things intersect here. Spock would say, fascinating.
    Gwynne has a gift. More than just breaking hardware - that might just be her magnetic personality.
    34:33 2.5 weeks ( How long will you be on Mars? Two weeks ) Until graduation. Congratulations. That is good news and I am excited beyond belief for all of you. We need your help. Get in the canoe and row with us.
    Ah Ha! A super secret message from Mrs. Gwynne Shotwell and a message for me.
    --- work around risk (ouuu it is hard to read)
    --- workaround risk (it has barbs or hooks)
    --- Astronauts work around risk -- Starship crews work around risk --- This one is hard for me to articulate
    I call these intersections "bundles" they are part of the tapestry of life. How to explain.
    Our thread interweaves with others, teams, friends, family, more intellectually, spiritually, in time
    It is beautiful - I can't quite explain it - it paints and add colors to our world - it defines us.
    Sharing
    I will watch it. I wrote it down. Yes, Gwynne said it well.
    I think the tapestry is a garden, in the evening, the world comes alive and the fire fly's come out.
    I got goose bumps. It is just a cold breeze. The Starships will be like that. I hope I don't miss that.
    Time flies too.
    Don't mind me. I'm fine. I learned a new term today. In life sometimes we have a hard reset.
    I'ts okay. Thanks Gwynne, You know ... alt numpad - 3
