Why do visionary entrepreneurs like Steve Jobs and Elon Musk need strong operational counterparts like Tim Cook and Gwynne Shotwell? Successful businesses don't just need visionaries. They need strong operational leaders to turn big ideas into reality. This episode highlights the crucial roles of Tim Cook at Apple and Gwynne Shotwell at SpaceX—leaders who ensured consistent execution behind the scenes. Topics explored in this episode: - The myth that a single visionary leader drives business success—why execution matters just as much.- How Steve Jobs relied on Tim Cook to scale Apple into a global powerhouse.- The critical role Gwynne Shotwell plays in running SpaceX while Elon Musk drives innovation.- Characteristics of great second-in-command leaders: consistency, reliability, and people management.- Why hiring a COO or operational leader is not about cloning the CEO but complementing them.- The risks of hiring externally vs. developing leadership talent from within the company.- Strategies for gradually transitioning a new COO into their leadership role.Chapters in this episode:(02:36) Why Musk & Jobs Needed Their Right-Hand Leaders(04:23) Tim Cook & Gwynne Shotwell(06:59) The Key Traits of an Effective Second-in-Command(09:07) Hiring vs. Developing Leadership Talent Internally(12:11) Common Pitfalls in Hiring a COO(13:33) Strong Operational LeadersBill Gallagher, Scaling Coach and host of the Scaling Up Business podcast, is an international business coach who works with C-Suite leaders to achieve breakthrough growth.

Jane Poynter spent two years and 20 minutes in a biosphere back in the early 1990s. (There's a documentary about it.) Later, Poynter set her sights on a mission to Mars. Wired wrote in 2014, “Meet the Couple Who Could Be the First Humans to Travel to Mars.” The story was about Poynter and her husband, Taber MacCallum. These days, the duo is working together on building a hydrogen balloon that will take tourists to space for $125,000. Poytner came on the podcast to talk about her startup, Space Perspective. We also discussed SpaceX, Elon Musk, Virgin Galactic, and the state of the adventure tourism industry in light of the deep sea deaths on a OceanGate submersible headed to the Titanic. On the show, Poynter said that Space Perspective, which has about 130 employees, has raised almost $70 million. Prime Movers Lab and LightShed Ventures are major investors, Poynter said. She told us that she hopes to commercial operations “around the end of 2024.” Venture capitalist, chief of staff newsletter author, and AI event host Ali Rohde joined me as a guest co-host for the episode. (She's a friend of the show and I'm exploring different podcast episode formats. I always welcome your feedback and advice. In that spirit, I'll mention that I'm still looking for a podcast producer.)Think of the episode as part two in my exploration of space startups. Last week, I talked with Delian Asparouhov, the co-founder of Varda Space Industries. This week, we interrogate space tourism. Give it a listen.Highlighted ExcerptsThe transcript has been edited for clarity.What if anything did you take away from the OceanGate situation?Jane: What's fascinating is we got almost no customer questions or refund requests due to the OceanGate accident. It's incredibly different from what we do. Also, in the 60+ years of deep ocean submersible operations there had never been a fatal accident until that incident. You have to ask why. I don't want to focus on OceanGate specifically, but the big takeaway for us was that we embrace regulatory oversight. We want the FAA and Coast Guard to work with us since we also operate at sea. We go so far beyond any standards they would set that it's good for us and the industry to have that accountability and transparency. That was the main takeaway: We welcome reasonable regulations and oversight.Space tourism more akin to safaris than Virgin GalacticJane: It's interesting that you talk about Blue Origin and Virgin not being competition because the experience is so differentiated from what we offer. Our experience is more akin to incredible safaris, trips to Antarctica, and other wonder travel that deeply transforms people. That's why we priced our tickets at $125,000. It's in line with those kinds of life-changing experiences. When Antarctica tourism opened up, there was a huge demand from people willing to pay high prices for a once-in-a-lifetime trip. We're seeing incredible excitement and demand from customers wanting to go to space with us. We have an event coming up soon with over 100 of our explorers gathering here, and they all want to connect with each other too. We're building a real community around spaceflight and this experience. It's going to be such an extraordinary, bonding experience for people. I truly believe it will bring people together in a deep way.You mentioned Blue Origin, Virgin, and SpaceX — obviously some of the first names people think of when space is mentioned like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos. They are controversial figures, likely quite different from our target customer base. But I'm curious. What do you think about them? Are you grateful for how they've helped popularize and mainstream space travel?Jane: Taber and I worked with Elon before he started SpaceX, so we have an interesting perspective. In the early days of SpaceX, space tourism was considered a joke and the idea that commercial companies could enable space travel or moon/Mars missions was insane. It was assumed that only governments could do that. Elon deserves a lot of credit; Gwynne Shotwell too. She's done an incredible job revolutionizing the space industry by lowering costs, improving efficiency and effectiveness, and showing us what's possible. SpaceX paved the way for the over 100 small rocket companies operating now, which never would have happened without that trailblazing. So while there are likely narrative or cultural elements we wouldn't fully align with, overall we are absolutely grateful for the pivotal role SpaceX played in advancing commercial space and making it seem achievable.What excites you about exploring space?Jane: When I think about space exploration, I don't view it as leaving Earth never to return. I actually quite like this planet! To me, space exploration is more of an extension of the perspective-broadening we do now. When people look down on Planet Earth from space, it's a mind-blowing experience. Now imagine yourself standing on the moon or Mars and seeing Earth. It's that exponentially more impactful. It will give people a wildly different perspective on what it means for all of us to live together. We should think of ourselves as one human family living on Spaceship Earth. As we venture farther out, it will become increasingly clear that we're holding up a mirror to humanity, seeing ourselves somewhere other than Earth for the first time. It's a wild concept. So that's how I view space, not as leaving the planet but expanding our perspective to appreciate that we're all in this together.How do you prevent accidents in the air?Jane: A common question we get is what happens if something goes wrong with the balloon? The balloon technology is incredibly well understood with a long legacy. Hundreds have been flown in the last 20 years without a single in-flight incident. However, we obviously need backup systems. We have a series of parachutes, similar to those used on SpaceX's Dragon capsules or other space vehicles. They are robust, proven parachutes. We have four total, with only two needed for a safe landing. The parachutes are only used in an emergency scenario because normally the ship ascends under the balloon and descends back onto the balloon, keeping the flight system consistent. This is a very safe approach, never transitioning between flight systems. We've focused on simplicity everywhere possible because simpler systems tend to be safer overall.

SpaceX Ignites Super Heavy Rocket's 33 Engines for the First Time

SpaceX, the leading private aerospace company, is taking a big step towards space exploration with its Super Heavy rocket booster. The company's first stage of the starship rocket is fully reusable, which is aimed to power NASA's return to the Moon and help humans settle on Mars one day. With 33 main engines, this is the first time in history that so many engines have been used on a rocket. The closest comparison to this is the Soviet Union's N1 rocket, which had 30 liquid-fueled engines, but each of them was only about two-thirds as powerful as the Raptor 2 engines used on the Super Heavy rocket. The Super Heavy rocket is a crucial component of SpaceX's starship program, and its successful ignition of all 33 engines marks a significant milestone for the company. Gwynne Shotwell, President of SpaceX, spoke at a commercial space conference in Washington, DC and stated that Thursday (the day of the engine ignition test) was going to be a "big day" for the company. Despite the significance of the moment, Shotwell emphasized that the test was just the first step and the real goal was not to "blow up the launch pad". SpaceX's Starship program has been in development for several years, and after rapid-fire prototype tests in 2020 and 2021, the company has moved more cautiously with its testing at the Starbase facility in South Texas. The company has likely invested over $1 billion in building a massive launch-and-catch tower, as well as ground systems, to support the Super Heavy and Starship vehicles. With so many assets in one small area near the Gulf of Mexico, SpaceX is taking extra care not to risk destroying any infrastructure it has spent over a year building and testing. In the event of any destruction, the starship launch campaign would be set back for months, and regulatory concerns raised by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) would likely increase. Thus, the primary goal of the engine ignition test was to not blow up the launch pad, and after that, SpaceX would analyze the performance of the Raptor engines and replace any that show deviations from expected behavior. The engine ignition test took place at around 3:15 pm local time in South Texas, and lasted for a "full duration" of the Raptor engines. According to SpaceX founder Elon Musk, one engine was turned off just prior to ignition, and another stopped itself, but 31 of the 33 engines would have provided enough thrust to reach orbit. Despite this, the launch infrastructure in South Texas remained mostly unscathed. This successful engine ignition test could lead to SpaceX's first orbital launch attempt, which is expected to occur in the second half of March or early April. The thrust output of the Super Heavy's engines was likely nearly double that of NASA's Saturn 5 rocket or Space Launch System, which is a huge achievement for SpaceX. Reusable Rockets: The Future of Space Exploration SpaceX's Super Heavy rocket booster is designed to be fully reusable, which is a major shift in the traditional aerospace industry. In the past, most rockets were used only once and then discarded after their mission was complete. This was because it was deemed too expensive and time-consuming to recover and refurbish the rockets for reuse. However, SpaceX has taken a different approach and is working towards a future where reusable rockets are the norm. Reusable rockets have several benefits. For starters, they significantly reduce the cost of launching into space. This is because the same rocket can be used repeatedly, reducing the need to build and launch new rockets for each mission. In addition, reusable rockets reduce the amount of debris generated during launches, which is crucial in maintaining a clean environment

Décidément, rien de ce que fait Elon Musk n'est sans controverse. Après avoir déclaré haut et fort qu'il voulait racheter Twitter avant de vouloir renégocier son offre à la baisse, Elon Musk est aujourd'hui pointé du doigt par certains de ses salariés... ou plutôt anciens salariés, puisqu'ils ont depuis été licenciés... tout cela pour avoir osé se plaindre du comportement excentrique de leur patron.C'est dans une lettre ouverte que l'on a appris la nouvelle. Dans cet écrit collectif, le comportement d'Elon Musk est considéré comme étant je cite « une source fréquente de distraction et d'embarras, en particulier ces dernières semaines […] En tant que P.D.G. et porte-parole, Elon est considéré comme le visage de SpaceX. Chaque tweet envoyé par Elon est de facto une déclaration publique de la société. Il est essentiel de faire comprendre à nos équipes et à notre vivier de talents potentiels que son message ne reflète pas notre travail, notre mission ou nos valeurs » fin de citation. Le document mentionnait également la politique « No Asshole » (pas de connard, en français) de SpaceX, sous-entendant que Musk pouvait pour sa part avoir des comportements justement de « connard » en public. Au final, l'objectif de cette lettre était surtout de demander à l'entreprise de se désolidariser des propos du patron, je cite, « en condamnant publiquement le comportement préjudiciable d'Elon sur Twitter » fin de citation.Réaction de SpaceX : le licenciement. Gwynne Shotwell, présidente de la société, a notifié par e-mail -ce qui est très loin d'être classe- à plusieurs signataires à l'origine de cette lettre qu'ils ne travaillaient plus pour SpaceX désormais. D'après le New York Time et le site The Verge, Shotwell explique que je cite « l'entreprise a trop de travail critique à accomplir, et n'a pas besoin de ce genre d'activisme excessif » fin de citation. Mais d'après une signataire de cette lettre et désormais ex-salarié de SpaceX, le sentiment général chez dans l'entreprise est que le management fait je cite « la sourde oreille » pour occulter des problèmes réels, précisant qu'il aura fallu un mois aux signataires pour écrire cette lettre afin d'être sûr de bien refléter l'opinion de la majorité de l'entreprise. Reste à savoir si ce mouvement de contestation n'est qu'un incident mineur comme l'explique la compagnie d'Elon Musk, ce dernier n'ayant pas réagi publiquement à cette affaire, où s'il s'agit d'un début de soulèvement au sein de l'entreprise spatiale la plus puissante du monde.

Return to Space is an American documentary film made for Netflix and directed by Jimmy Chin and Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi. Its story follows Elon Musk's and SpaceX engineers' two-decade mission to send NASA astronauts back to the International Space Station and revolutionize space travel.●Surprisingly good.●The storytelling, ●editing and flashbacks are fantastic.I am no expert, but I love to look at stars, moon, clouds and sunset. I have never had a conversation involve Elon Musk and thought this document about him. But it wasn't. With some appearances here and there, Elon Musk appears to be very passionate, funny, charming and driven. I also like how they allow the scientists and other astronauts to share their thoughts, families rather touching.well done. I learn a lot. I feel smarter too.

All of these factors — high costs, slow turnaround, few customers, and a vehicle (and agency) that had major safety problemsAstronauts often say the reasons humans haven't returned to the lunar surface are budgetary and political hurdles, not scientific or technical challenges. ▪︎Private companies like Blue Origin and SpaceX may be the first entities to return people to the moon▪︎SpaceX was formed by entrepreneur Elon Musk in the hopes of revolutionizing the aerospace industry and making affordable spaceflight a reality. The company entered the arena with the Falcon 1 rocket, a two-stage liquid-fueled craft designed to send small satellites into orbit.▪︎SpaceX scored its first big headline in 2010, when it became the first private company to launch a payload into orbit and return it to Earth intact—something only government agencies like NASA or Russia's Roscosmos had done before. Its upright landing and recovery of the first stage of the Falcon 9 rocket on Dec.▪︎Since 2010, SpaceX has been flying Falcon 9, a rocket with a reusable booster that has become one of the most dominant launch vehicles in global spaceflight.

We're back! After some much needed time for a mental health break and an introspective view at where I'm at in my life at 31, we have returned fired up and ready to talk about the balance.  This is a great episode for anyone who is new to the podcast for some context on who I am, and a deep look at a part of my STEM origin story. No one has an easy time in a STEM career - it's a gauntlet. And I found myself doubting my own self after mentioning my goal of training to become an Astronaut. The same doubt that plagued me as a young 20-something, still full of angst and self-sabotage from a lack of confidence. I get more philosophical than scientific as the episode continues...but still a fun one that I hope helps someone going through a tough time as we transition to the next phase post-pandemic. But thanks to a commencement speech by the President and COO of SpaceX, Gwynne Shotwell - things started to align and make sense again!

It's a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too. Unplugged Performance Reveals 'Pikes Plaid'"On June 10, 2021, Elon Musk formally kicked off deliveries of the 1,020-hp Tesla Model S Plaid. Approximately two days later, on June 12, Unplugged Performance debuted its race-prepped Model S Plaid that's set to compete at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb (with our resident pro racing driver, Randy Pobst, behind the wheel). " says Motor Trend: "The interior is almost completely stripped out. After ditching items such as the car's airbags, a center console, and door panels, Unplugged Performance fits this tri-motor Tesla with a roll cage and a racing seat with six-point racing belts. The body is stock except for a huge front splitter and a gigantic adjustable rear wing. Likewise, the Plaid racer retains its factory air springs, however, it employs custom Unplugged Performance/Bilstein dampers and a three-way adjustable rear anti-roll bar. The car rides on Yokohama Advan slicks on custom forged aluminum wheels." https://www.motortrend.com/news/tesla-model-s-plaid-pikes-peak-race/ ADL presents EV Bus For U.S."Alexander Dennis Limited (ADL), a subsidiary of NFI Group (NFI), unveiled its first all-electric three-axle double-deck bus for North America. Following trials with select transit operators, the vehicle is now launching on the broader North American markets." says electrive.com: "The 45-foot Enviro500EV CHARGE has a passenger capacity of up to 82 seats, including 53 on the upper deck. An electric portal axle with hub motors provides propulsion with 2×125kW peak power output. The battery capacity of the Enviro500EV Charge stands at 648 kWh of energy storage integrated “in the chassis and the rear of the vehicle for a low centre of gravity and great stability”. Charging can be done via industry-standard CCS1" https://www.electrive.com/2021/06/13/adl-presents-triple-axle-double-decker-bus-for-north-america/ BYD's electric school bus will feed electricity back to classrooms"Chinese EV automaker BYD officially introduced its new electric Type D school bus, available in the US in lengths of 10.6, 11.6, and 12 meters, and capable of carrying up to 84 passengers. Most notably, the school bus enables bi-directional charging. According to the company, the bus can be charged overnight when energy demand is low, and feed clean energy back to the school during school hours" says The Next Web: "The bus features a lithium iron phosphate battery and has a range of roughly 250 kilometers on a single charge. That's 57km more than the electric school buses of Blue Bird Corporation, one of the biggest industry players, can go. Although it's unclear when and where BYD's new ebuses will debut, the announcement comes in perfect sync with President Biden's EV infrastructure scheme" https://thenextweb.com/news/byds-electric-school-bus-feed-electricity-back-classrooms UK in talks with 6 firms to build gigafactories"Britain is in talks with six companies for building gigafactories to produce electric vehicle batteries, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday, citing people briefed on the discussions." reports Reuters today: "Ford Motor Co (F.N), Nissan Motor Co Ltd (7201.T), LG Corp (003550.KS), Samsung (005930.KS) and start-ups Britishvolt and InoBat Auto are in talks with the British government or local authorities about locations for potential factories and financial support, according to the report.

By 2030 there could be 1.5 million EVs on Russian roads, supported by 20,000 new charging stations, according to the plan." https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2021/06/01/russian-government-increases-investment-for-electric-vehicles-a74067 Tesla desperately needs a No. 2 for Elon Musk"While Musk is not likely to step aside at Tesla (TSLA) anytime soon, it's evident he has many more interests — some would call them distractions — beyond electric vehicles. He's been obsessed with cryptocurrencies, especially dogecoin" says CNN Business: "It makes no sense for Tesla to be essentially a one-man show while SpaceX has an extremely adept COO in Gwynne Shotwell, one of that company's first hires, who is capable of stepping in to lead if Musk were unable to do so. Why doesn't Musk have someone like Shotwell at Tesla? Tesla has suffered a bit of a brain drain over the past few years, with several high-profile executives leaving. Most recent, and most alarming to Tesla investors, is this week's departure of Jerome Guillen. The nearly 11-year Tesla veteran had been running the trucking division and previously served in many roles, including president of the automotive division and program director on Tesla's Model S sedan. David Whiston, an auto analyst at Morningstar, said in an email to CNN Business that the only executive left who might make sense as a Musk successor is Andrew "Drew" Baglino, Tesla's senior vice president of powertrain and energy engineering, who has been with the company since 2006." QUESTION OF THE WEEK ANSWERS RAJEEV NARAYANMy Volt makes a strange ethereal moaning sound at low speed, that I am not a fan of.. That being said I understand that regulations mandating these low speed sounds are increasing. It would be interesting if these could be changed, downloaded, or even self made like ringtones today. Perhaps you could even decide which one gets played based on GPS location. As for sounds at higher speeds- I am not a fan of that, one of the things I enjoy about my EV is the quiet ride, thst being said I can see a similar market for customizable / downloaded high-speed sounds- “Ferrari” or “spaceship” may be interesting.  LIAM FROM OHIOI am not an EV owner but, I think car manufacturers should just put a microphone under the hood of their EVs,✝ and pump the motor sounds through the interior (and exterior) speakers. (Of course with adjustable volume.) I love the sound of motor whine! Have you heard how cool the EV1 sounded even without fake motor sounds?* Regarding my opinion fake motor sounds, Porsche, Audi, and Jaguar have nailed it in my opinion! Although, I don't really care for the fake sounds that the e-Golf and Mach-E make when accelerating, as they sound too much like combustion engine sounds. JAMES COYLEI have to agree the Zoe Pedestrian noise, is really is annoying BUT it does come in really useful when driving in busy town areas with lots of people walking around, HOWEVER the button to turn it on/off is in a really awkward place, and you cant turn it on, for instance when reversing, only off. EG: if there was a button to turn it on, on the steering wheel you could click it on and off at will, I'm most cautious when silently reversing slowly out of a super market car parking space, you cant turn it on, it refuses to make any noise whilst reversing, when its at its most quiet. IAN HARRISON FROM HULL•I am a blind enthusiast of electric vehicles but do worry about not being able to use yet another of my senses while out and about. So few drivers fail to recognise the significance of a white cane or guide dog compared with years ago that crossing uncontrolled roads is always a gamble anyway. Perhaps cars could be taught to notice the cane or the profile of a guide dog and its owner, then perform a beep whether or not your system is switched on. •Silent cars when combined with this fad for shared spaces is a double whammy for both the blind and even parents and small children. •Can I give a shout out to Motability UK who provide leased vehicles to the disabled. They are slowly increasing their range of EVs, including the ID3. I can't wait to get my wife an electric vehicle next time around. STEPHEN HARRISSo far as EV sounds are concerned, they should be silent.  However, having the option to change the sound of the horn or have two different buttons for the horn, so that the driver can give an appropriate warning for the circumstance would be ideal.  The usual horn sound can scare the daylights out of unsuspecting pedestrians and I think many sensible drivers are hesitant to use it for that reason, whereas a sound like a bike bell would be enough to get them to turn in the direction of the vehicle and see what is happening.  A bike bell is pretty universally recognised warning to get out of the way.s (PEVs).  They would be an ideal first and last mile solution and indeed are plenty capable enough to make the whole journey in many instances. MARK ORRICONo artificial noises please. Inside or out. There are some nearly silent piston cars out there. It's on the driver and pedestrians to avoid being run over and running people over. When I got my Niro in February I had it 2 days with the reverse beeping and pulled the front bumper off to disconnect the speaker…..my first new car ever and day 2 I'm pulling the thing apart, I got an ev partly for a quieter vehicle not one that was going to wake all my neighbors up when I back out of the garage. ALUN MORGANTo me it's very clear, there should be no rules about EV noise at all. Regulations should be technology agnostic: Minimum external noise limits should exist for all vehicles at low speed. I think the current AVAS regs allowing quite a lot of freedom under an “engine like noise” are a good way to go. Equally: Maximum external noise should be regulated, there are standards for drive by noise, but regulations on maximum noise at low speeds are probably a good idea now that a lot of cars simply have a speaker under the hood that could easily be abused. As for internal noise - go for broke, I don't care if you want your EV to sound like a V12, or your V12 to sound like an EV (good luck with that). The market will provide/decide. I suspect as EVs become ubiquitous, playing faux engine noises from your audio system will turn out to be a fad.  QUESTION OF THE WEEK WITH EMOBILITYNORWAY.COM What's the best way to navigate an EV journey and charge on the way? Do you use our smartphone or use the car's internal system? Email me your thoughts and I'll read them out on Sunday – hello@evnewsdaily.com   It would mean a lot if you could take 2mins to leave a quick review on whichever platform you download the podcast. And  if you have an Amazon Echo, download our Alexa Skill, search for EV News Daily and add it as a flash briefing. Come and say hi on Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter just search EV News Daily, have a wonderful day, I'll catch you tomorrow and remember…there's no such thing as a self-charging hybrid. PREMIUM PARTNERSPHIL ROBERTS / ELECTRIC FUTURE BRAD CROSBYPORSCHE OF THE VILLAGE CINCINNATIAUDI CINCINNATI EASTVOLVO CARS CINCINNATI EAST NATIONALCARCHARGING.COM and ALOHACHARGE.COM DEREK REILLY FROM THE EV REVIEW IRELAND YOUTUBE CHANNELRICHARD AT RSEV.CO.UK – FOR BUYING AND SELLING EVS IN THE UKEMOBILITYNORWAY.COM/

Eric Berger, a soft-spoken Ars Technica journalist, meteorologist, and lover of all things space-related, has spent a lot of time with Elon Musk during the past few years. While watching the billionaire SpaceX founder closely as he sat in on board meetings and gathering with his family on flights to Texas, Berger discovered the formula behind the company’s two-decade ascension to space industry dominance.    It starts with Musk — an enthralling, passionate, laser-focused, relentless, moody, and sometimes difficult leader, with a unique gift for engineering. His greatest talent, according to Berger, may be his ability to locate and surround himself with the “right” people — those who mix well with his personality and can keep up pace for long periods of time. The people who helped Musk send his first Falcon rockets into space come into clear focus in Berger’s new book “Liftoff,” a widely-praised chronicle of SpaceX’s establishment in the early 2000s. On this episode of On Orbit, Berger brings us behind the scenes of writing Liftoff. He explains the influence that people like Tom Mueller and Gwynne Shotwell (who just become Via Satellite’s most recent two-time Executive of the Year winner) had on SpaceX’s success, and who he enjoyed speaking with the most while conducting research. Berger also shares some insights that weren’t included in “Liftoff,” as well as thoughts on who might lead SpaceX after Musk.

While much of the Musk spotlight has shone on Tesla in recent years, is SpaceX actually the company that will have the greatest impact on our world's future, and perhaps even other worlds beyond?

Cameron County announces temporary road closure for SpaceX testing Link: https://valleycentral.com/news/local/cameron-county-announces-temporary-road-closure-for-spacex-testing BOCA CHICA BEACH, Texas (KGBT) — Cameron County Judge Eddie Treviño has announced temporary road closures for SpaceX testing. According to a release, Treviño has ordered the closure of access to Boca Chica Beach, as well as State Highway 4 from FM 1419 (Oklahoma Ave.) to the entrance of Boca Chica Beach. “I have ordered the closure of Highway 4 and Boca Chica Beach for the purpose of protecting public health and safety during SpaceX testing activities on November 12 between 12:00 p.m. Central Standard Time and 8:00 p.m. of the same day and in the alternative on November 13, 2019 between 12:00 p.m. Central Standard Time and 8:00 p.m. and/or November 14, 2019, from 12:00 p.m. Central Standard Time and 8:00 p.m. of the same day, in the event the November 12, 2019, temporary closure is not utilized. Should SpaceX not complete its test launch activities on November 12, 2019, then SpaceX may use the alternate date to complete its test launch activities,” said Treviño in a press release. We're told that SpaceX and local law enforcement will be coordinating to ensure that no individuals or vehicles are allowed access to these areas during the times of day that are listed. Individuals who provide proof of residence between the two checkpoints set up on Highway 4 by SpaceX will be allowed to proceed through the soft checkpoint and access their homes during testing.

But the company has to finish the ground-based user terminals for that to work, she noted.

Strange ‘rotating disc' caught on video by driver stuck in NC traffic. Is it a UFO? Link: https://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/local/article237082509.html Eleven UFO sightings were logged by experts last month in North Carolina, but it's an even dozen if you include a lesser known report made near Shelby, about 50 miles west of Charlotte. That potential sighting came to light after a video appeared on YouTube, showing a disc-like object that remained stationary over Cleveland County for several minutes before vanishing, according to a witness. The video was recorded in morning rush hour on Oct. 25 and posted with a request that viewers give ideas on what it might have been, including the possibility it was just a reflection or strange play of light. Aaron Bostic, 33, told McClatchy news group that he was stuck in traffic on U.S. 74 in Shelby when he spotted the “diamond shaped object glowing really brightly” against a cloudy sky. It appeared to be rotating, he said. “It really stuck out like a sore thumb and I kept thinking that maybe it was a plane landing at Charlotte Douglas (International) Airport or maybe it was a really big stunt drone, but it stayed in the same spot for two minutes,” he told McClatchy. “Honestly, I don't know what it was and nobody at work who has seen the video knows what it was,” he added. “I'm not a believer in that kind of stuff, but we've had all this come out about UFOs and the military. You sort of have to question what you believe.” Possible explanations posted by viewers on YouTube have included a weather balloon or ball lightning, which National Geographic describes as “glowing, electric orbs” that appear as floating spheres during thunderstorms. “Can't really tell if its a Goodyear type blimp or one of those silvery cigar-shaped UFOs,” Molly Lenore posted on YouTube. Bostic says he considered that it was a helicopter but saw no flashing lights, and says it didn't have the right contours to be a blimp. In September, a video of strange lights seen off North Carolina's Outer Banks got international attention — and denials from the military that the lights were linked to training or other operations.

Happy Halloween! This week was a really crazy week and pushed me mentally. But I managed to get another podcast out and accomplish a lot with so many other things going on. This is life. But I wanted to take some time to talk about what helps me get all of this done, between the podcast and AG3D printing. It's the iterative mindset. Setting yourself up to take action and learn in the process. So much of my early 20's was focused on learning everything before taking action. While I may be turning 30 soon and certainly don't feel like I have things "figured out", it's hard not to take a step back and reflect on the progress I HAVE made.  Enjoy some rambling about the iterative mindset and how I expand that thought to discuss SpaceX's plans to land a Starship on the Moon by 2022.  If you want to see how I made the 3D printed Iron Man Wearable Arc Reactor - here's a 3.5min time-lapse video of the whole process: https://youtu.be/fmwzp5fW4YE SpaceX President and COO Gwynne Shotwell on SpaceX timeline for Starship mission to the moon by 2022 https://www.cnbc.com/2019/10/27/spacex-president-we-will-land-starship-on-moon-before-2022.html SpaceX to build cities on the Moon and Mars https://www.reddit.com/r/MarsSociety/comments/dli3dz/spacex_to_build_cities_on_mars_and_moon_lead/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

SpaceX may be the face of the private space industry now, but it wasn’t always that way. In the 16 years since its founding, the company went from curious newcomer to leading the sector. And the reason? It’s made a business out of building and launching affordable, reusable rockets, attracting clients like NASA who use SpaceX rockets to get their devices into space. Elon Musk may be the company’s founder and CEO, but Gwynne Shotwell has been the company’s chief operating officer for over a decade and is the person running the company day to day. Marketplace host Kai Ryssdal took a tour with Shotwell of SpaceX’s flagship manufacturing facility, where they talked about the state of the commercial space industry, what it’s like to run a rocket company and the plan to put people on Mars within 10 years.
