    Is there a chance that we could get a behind-the-scenes video once? Like, how do you start designing a craft for such a mission, what iterations do you go through? I'd also be interested in the same, but about the mission itself: how do you decide what ascent profile to use? Once you're in LKO, do you simply look at a dV map and decide where to go with what you have? I don't care if such a behind-the-scenes video is 12 hours long, I'd be very interested.
