Episode Title: Tesla's Building A Robot Army — And A $1.5 Trillion Merger | Cern Basher Short Description: Bitcoin isn't money — it's a cyber security technology. And we're going to need it desperately. Cern Basher, CFA, breaks down why AI agents will choose Bitcoin, the Tesla robotaxi economics, the SpaceX–xAI mega-merger, and why Strategy might be the world's largest digital security company. Full Description: How do you constrain trillions of AI agents roaming the internet? Not with passwords and code — AI will hack all of that. You do it with physics. You do it with Bitcoin. In Part 2 of my conversation with Cern Basher — CFA charterholder, CIO of Brilliant Advice, and one of the sharpest analysts at the intersection of AI, Bitcoin, and macroeconomics — we go deep on Jason Lowery's classified Softwar thesis and why the US Department of Defence placed it under security review. Cern explains why Bitcoin is actually a cyber security protocol hiding in plain sight, disguised by the word "coin" in its name — just like gunpowder was disguised as medicine for years before engineers figured out what it really was. We also break down the deflationary tsunami hitting every industry — SaaS companies losing billions in market cap overnight, Salesforce and the consulting industry being hollowed out by AI agents, and why deflation is actually something we should celebrate, not fear. We already lived through it with the iPhone and we loved it. Cern shares his brilliant analogy for why Tesla is massively undervalued — a kid running a lemonade stand who's secretly training to become a surgeon, but Wall Street only sees the lemonade. We get into whether SpaceX and Tesla will merge, the economics of putting AI data centres in space, manufacturing pharmaceuticals in zero gravity, and the incredible opportunity for any individual to own a small fleet of robotaxis and replace their income. For New Zealand, this is a call to action. Be first. Be forward-thinking. Or watch other countries leapfrog us. In this episode we discuss: Bitcoin as a cyber security technology, not just money — and why that's even more valuable Jason Lowery's Softwar thesis — proof of work as digital defence Why AI agents unanimously choose Bitcoin for transactions The gunpowder analogy — Bitcoin's real use case is hiding in plain sight Google's centralised censorship of health and supplement companies OpenClaw and the Pandora's box of billions of AI agents SaaS is cooked — Salesforce, consulting, and legal getting hollowed out Deflation is good — the iPhone proved it and we all benefited The ice cutter disruption story — this is nothing new The K-shaped economy — will abundance lift the bottom 50%? Universal high income and making goods freely available like water Strategy (MicroStrategy) as the world's largest digital security company Tesla undervalued — the lemonade stand to surgeon analogy Will SpaceX and Tesla merge? Pros, cons, and what Cern is hearing AI data centres in space, pharma in zero gravity, and Starship economics Owning your own robotaxi fleet — replacing your income New Zealand's opportunity to leapfrog the world Links mentioned: Cern Basher on X: https://x.com/CernBasher Brilliant Advice: https://www.brilliantadvice.net Jason Lowery's Softwar thesis (MIT): https://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/153030 Cern's GDP & Dematerialisation post: https://x.com/CernBasher/status/1913993658572984440 Part 1 of this episode: https://youtu.be/eh0hKibH6Zs

The Space Show Presents OPEN LINES, Sunday, 2-15-26Quick SummaryThe Space Show Wisdom Team discussed Elon Musk's decision to pivot SpaceX's focus from Mars to the Moon, examining both technical and business reasons for the shift. Ajay presented technical arguments against Starship's capability to achieve significant payload delivery to orbit, while others debated whether this pivot represented a permanent shift away from Mars colonization goals. The discussion explored potential business motivations, including the need for a public IPO to secure funding for ambitious lunar projects like orbital data centers, and considered how regulatory and legal challenges might impact SpaceX's plans. The panel also examined how this pivot might affect public perception and investor confidence, particularly given Musk's previous statements about prioritizing Mars over the Moon.Detailed SummaryThe Team discussed a recent article by Will Lockett, who critiques Elon Musk's pivot from Mars to the Moon. Ajay found the article on Substack, but most of it is behind a paywall. Phil was able to access the full article with a free account. The group debated Lockett's credentials and the validity of his claims, noting that he is a liberal commentator who has been critical of both Musk and Trump. They also discussed the upcoming schedule for the Space Show, including a program about Shenzhou 20 debris scares and a discussion on spaceports with Karen Jones of the Aerospace Corp.The group discussed a critical article about Starship's performance, where the author labeled it a failure due to boil-off issues that prevent sufficient refueling in orbit for Mars and moon missions. Philip explained that the analysis was based on assumptions including a 1% boil-off rate and weekly launches, with the depot reaching a maximum capacity of 360 tons before becoming a boil-off replenishment system. The discussion explored potential solutions, including the use of cryo-coolers to prevent boil-off, though this would require significant solar panels that could affect orbital decay rates. David provided background on the author, Will Lockett, describing him as a climate and political journalist who critically analyzes various issues, including SpaceX and Elon Musk.The group discussed Starship's payload capabilities, with Phil explaining his analysis of test flight data which suggested Starship could carry 20 tons to orbit, significantly less than the 100 tons claimed by SpaceX. Ajay presented his company's system-of-systems calculations which confirmed the challenges of achieving high payload fractions without multiple refuelings. The discussion clarified that payload capabilities are evolving with each test flight, and Marshall noted that SpaceX's own documentation shows payload capacities increasing from 15 tons for Block 1 to 35 tons for Block 2, with Block 3 targeting 100 tons.The group discussed the challenges and uncertainties associated with the Starship rocket's development, particularly in comparison to the Falcon Heavy. Ajay emphasized the importance of a robust solution, advocating for the Falcon Heavy due to its proven track record and lower risk, despite its lower payload capacity. He expressed concerns about Starship's landing capabilities on the moon and its overall reliability, stating he would not feel comfortable putting astronauts on board even after 2-3 years of development and testing. Phil clarified that astronauts would only be at risk during the descent and landing phase, not the orbital transfer. Doug suggested that successful cargo landings might be a step towards gaining Ajay's confidence in risking human lives.The team discussed concerns about SpaceX's Starship design for lunar missions, particularly its tall and slender shape which Dr. raised as a potential issue for stability during landing. Phil and Doug countered that SpaceX's engineering capabilities and adaptive landing systems could overcome these challenges, while Marshall suggested that emergency abort options could be implemented to prevent tip-over scenarios. The discussion concluded with a debate about SpaceX's strategic pivot to focus on lunar missions rather than Mars, with some participants suggesting this might be due to internal challenges and the need to demonstrate practical business applications to investors, while others noted that this pivot could help solidify SpaceX's hold on the lunar lander system.The group discussed Elon Musk's shift in focus from Mars to the Moon, with John Jossy highlighting practical advantages like frequent launch windows and shorter transit times. Doug explained that Musk's timeline for Mars remains unchanged, with crewed missions still targeted for 2031 or 2033. The discussion also touched on potential lunar business opportunities, such as orbital data centers using lunar regolith, and Bob Zubrin's disappointment with Musk's pivot to the Moon. Philip suggested that Zubrin should have kept his options open and not put too much emphasis on Musk's plans.The group discussed Elon Musk's shift in focus from Mars to the moon, with Ajay arguing that the moon should be prioritized as a testing ground for space colonization before attempting Mars. Philip countered that Mars offers more scientific opportunities and geopolitical significance, while David noted that Musk's decision to align with government moon programs rather than pursue a private Mars mission has surprised many who viewed him as a leader in independent space exploration. The discussion highlighted a shift in public perception about Musk's space ambitions and the broader debate over lunar versus Martian exploration priorities.The group discussed Elon Musk's decision to pivot SpaceX's focus from Mars to the Moon, which David attributed to Musk's experience with public company scrutiny and the upcoming IPO. They explored how Musk's controlling ownership of SpaceX (42%) and Tesla (12.5%) gives him significant influence over both companies, though the potential merger of XAI into SpaceX could change that balance. The discussion concluded that while environmental groups and scientific communities might oppose commercial operations on Mars and the Moon, legal challenges would likely face significant hurdles, though they could potentially increase costs and cause delays for SpaceX.The team discussed SpaceX's pivot from Mars to the Moon, with Marshall and Doug agreeing that this shift could help mitigate legal and environmental concerns surrounding Mars missions. Ryan Watson joined the call and shared his perspective that the economic potential of the Moon makes it a more attractive focus for space exploration. The conversation also covered SpaceX's decision to go public, with David explaining that this move provides liquidity for investors and allows for controlled share releases. Finally, Doug and Phil discussed the technical aspects of mass drivers and the feasibility of producing solar cells from lunar regolith, with Philip offering to present a standalone show on this topic in the future.The group discussed technical challenges and feasibility of launching data centers to the moon using mass drivers, with Doug proposing a compact design of accordion-folded solar panels and a low-mass processing unit. Marshall shared details about the Gerald Ford aircraft carrier electronic catapult system capable of launching at 3G forces, while Bill raised concerns about the structural challenges of deploying solar panels under such acceleration. The discussion concluded with Ajay sharing insights from a recent meeting with a senior advisor to Senator Scott, who expressed interest in space initiatives but raised concerns about launch cadence, and plans for upcoming shows including an interview with astronomer Andy Fraknoi about the lunar eclipse on March 1st.Special thanks to our sponsors:American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentOur Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223 (Not in service at this time)For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

C'est une ville pas tout à fait comme les autres. Depuis mai 2025, Starbase est officiellement devenue une municipalité du Texas, nichée dans le comté de Cameron. Derrière ce nom aux accents de science-fiction se trouve en réalité le cœur opérationnel de SpaceX, près de Boca Chica. Pour Elon Musk, ce nouveau statut doit permettre d'accompagner la montée en puissance de ses activités, notamment autour de la mégafusée Starship. L'ambition affichée : transformer la zone en « lieu de classe mondiale ».Pour l'instant, Starbase compte un peu plus de 580 habitants, essentiellement des employés de SpaceX et leurs familles. Mais avec l'accélération des essais et des développements de Starship, cette fusée géante destinée à des missions lunaires et martiennes, la population est appelée à croître rapidement. Dans cette perspective, la jeune municipalité veut désormais se doter de ses propres institutions. Elle prévoit la création d'un tribunal municipal, avec un juge à temps partiel, un procureur et un greffier. Aux États-Unis, ce type de juridiction traite surtout les infractions mineures : amendes, petits litiges, contraventions. En attendant la nomination d'un magistrat pour un mandat de deux ans, le maire assurerait lui-même la fonction de juge.Starbase ne s'arrête pas là. Elle dispose déjà d'une brigade de pompiers volontaires, gère ses permis de construire et supervise les inspections liées aux normes de sécurité incendie. La municipalité a également entamé des démarches pour créer sa propre unité de police. Les autorités locales mettent en avant « le mélange unique de technologies de pointe et de charme côtier », mais aussi la hausse des revenus médians et des prix immobiliers, qui justifieraient un renforcement des services publics, notamment en matière de sécurité. La mise en place complète de ces dispositifs pourrait prendre environ six mois. En attendant, la ville continue de s'appuyer sur les infrastructures du comté, notamment la prison locale.En parallèle, Starbase souhaite agrandir son territoire. Une procédure d'annexion de 7 100 acres — soit près de 2 900 hectares — est en cours près de Boca Chica. Ce mécanisme, courant aux États-Unis, permet d'intégrer officiellement de nouvelles parcelles dans les limites municipales. Mais une partie des terres visées appartient à une réserve naturelle abritant oiseaux, papillons et ocelots. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

HEADLINE: A Mission to Catch an Interstellar Comet25 WORD SUMMARY: Bob Zimmerman outlines an ambitious scientific proposal to launch a Starship in 2035 that would sling-shot around the sun to intercept a distant comet.GUEST: Bob Zimmerman, Science WriterOCTOBER 1957

Chris Guerrero, vice president of marketing at ENGIE Resources, talks about his work with Starship, the three main positions in the energy space and green hushing. He also talks about his love of storytelling, why it is important to share good stories and what is keeping him confident during the energy transition.

Elon Musk has stated that the Mars colony timeline likely will not shift; a flight to Mars is still targeted for 2031 or 2033. By developing lunar and Martian technology in parallel, the moon acts as a catalyst that makes the eventual Mars mission more likely to succeed through proven, high-cadence hardware and established deep-space life support systems.

The Space Show Present Dr. Greg Autry, Tuesday, Feb. 3, 2026Quick Summary: The group explored various aspects of the Artemis program, including its challenges, timeline concerns, and comparison with China's space efforts, while discussing the importance of maintaining U.S. leadership in space exploration. The conversation concluded with discussions about space policy, commercial space activities, and educational challenges facing the U.S., with emphasis on the need to generate public enthusiasm for space exploration initiatives.Detailed SummaryDavid introduced Dr. Greg Autry, a space policy expert and economics professor at UCF, to discuss his work and recent developments in space exploration. They touched on the Artemis II mission, commercial space launches in Florida, and concerns about the U.S. moon landing timeline. Greg expresses skepticism about the political commitment to space exploration under potential new leadership, noting that candidates like Vance and Harris may not prioritize space initiatives. The conversation concludes with a brief overview of Greg's background and upcoming programs at UCF.Dr. Autry discussed his role at the University of Central Florida, where he helped launch the world's first space MBA program in collaboration with Professor Zahir Ali. He highlighted the program's space-relevant curriculum, notable faculty, and upcoming guest speakers, including Pam Melroy and Jim Bridenstine. Autry also introduced the Space Ideation Challenge, a competition offering $125,000 in prize money for innovative space policy ideas. Greg also mentioned the delay of the Artemis launch due to cold weather affecting the hydrogen seals. He expressed pride in contributing to the decision to return to the moon in 2016 and shared his thoughts on the public's perception of the Artemis program.Our Wisdom Team group discussed the challenges and potential of the Artemis program, particularly focusing on the Starship mission and the complexities involved. They expressed concerns about the timeline for meeting 2028 deadlines, given the complexity of the technology and the need for political appointments. Despite these challenges, Greg expressed optimism about Administrator Jared Isaacman's leadership and the potential for a sustainable and permanent presence on the moon. Greg also compared the U.S. approach to the moon with China's simpler program, viewing the U.S. effort as a more ambitious but worthwhile endeavor.Our team discussed the Artemis program and space exploration strategy, with Phil sharing insights from a space historian's video that criticized NASA's approach as being too focused on quick wins rather than long-term scientific objectives. Greg noted that Americans typically prefer a “poker” approach to waiting for lucky breaks rather than the Chinese “Go” style of careful long-term planning, but emphasized that the Orion capsule and Space Launch System have been under development since 2003 and 2010 respectively, with continuity through multiple administrations. The discussion concluded with Marshall raising questions about launch facility readiness, which Autry addressed by explaining that the United States has three human-rated launch pads, with facilities at Cape Canaveral and the Space Force side being prepared for Starship launches.Our team discussed the need for infrastructure and base building on the moon, with Ajay emphasizing the importance of starting construction to save face for the Trump administration and prevent future program cancellations. Autry noted that while Artemis II will be significant, they need to generate public enthusiasm. Ajay proposed using Falcon Heavy to transport 14 tons of payload to the moon's surface. David questioned the likelihood of private companies alone achieving these goals, to which Greg responded that while private companies could theoretically fund it, they might be reluctant to make donations to a government program.The group discussed space policy and commercial space activities, with Dr. Greg Autry emphasizing that NASA's Artemis program should continue while exploring additional initiatives like Ajay's proposed lunar lander concept, which Autry suggested could be an addition rather than replacement for existing programs. The discussion covered concerns about China's space program and the importance of maintaining U.S. leadership in space, with Autry noting that completing the Artemis moon program is crucial to avoid having China claim superiority over the U.S. The conversation also touched on educational challenges facing the U.S. and the need to better prepare students for science and engineering careers, while David highlighted growing public interest in space science among younger generations.Special thanks to our sponsors:American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentOur Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223 (Not in service at this time)For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

Guests: Gordon Chang and Brandon Weichert. NASA's Artemis 2 moon mission faces indefinite delays due to SLS rocket flaws, leading experts to urge replacing the bureaucratic program with SpaceX's efficient Starshipsystem.1963

PREVIEW: Brandon Weichert of The National Interest critiques NASA's plans for the Artemis 2 mission and the Space Launch System. Weichert argues that the SLS is likely to fail to meet expectations and suggests that NASA may ultimately be forced to rely on Elon Musk's SpaceX and the Starship program to reach the moon, rather than continuing with the government's expensive, single-use rocket.
