    Shouldn’t sustainable water be secured first. I’m all for sending researchers, I hope humanity can progress to a point where we can surpass everything thought possible.

    Let politics rot but science should always thrive, I wish we had more resources and funds in this field.

    Get Earth Right before Mars. You all are just aware of what is coming for Earth. This will be a very interesting reset.

    You’re not realizing Earth’s tilt and sun angles of 23.4 degrees has a direct connection to the golden ratio, nature, our bodies and DNA. Mars’ tilt / sun angle is around 25 degrees and doesn’t have those connections.

    • For An Angel

      April 12, 2023 at 8:38 pm

      What is the connection?

    • Welcome to the Golden Page

      April 12, 2023 at 9:17 pm

      ​@For An Angel There are many.. Earth’s tilt or we can use the angle of the sun 23.4 degrees connects to a 345 pythagoreon triangle inside a seed of life 6. The 345 triangle is what the center pyramid is based on. The Great Pyramid’s side is the golden ratio over its base. Earth’s tilt slightly changes between 22.1 and 24.5 degrees every 41 thousand years. The 22.1 degrees relates to the side of the golden ratio pyramid.. meaning the winter solstice sun directly faces the pyramid when Earth is least tilted at 22.1 degrees. The max tilt of Earth is 24.5 degrees and relates to the corner of the same pyramid shape. Create a rectangle from one corner of the pyramid up across its apex to the opposite corner and its diagonal is 24.5 for the match. It’s kinda complex to describe when yt doesn’t let us post links or images. All of this tells me the slight wobble of Earth is following the dimensions of a golden ratio pyramid and that Earth is more special than anyone is realizing.

    How about we just quit paying for these lies with our taxes. If u could go to mars or the moon ud quit talking about it and do it. And i want a 24/7 camera running with multiple angles if u do go. No cgi. So simple yet you cant even mount cameras show hole trip but u want us to believe u go there! Lol……

The VC Backing the American Dream with Manan Mehta, Unshackled Ventures

Immigrant founders have built some of the world’s most valuable companies, but many still face barriers that make it harder to get a startup off the ground.

Immigrant founders have built some of the world’s most valuable companies, but many still face barriers that make it harder to get a startup off the ground. Visa restrictions, limited access to friends-and-family capital, shallow networks, and a venture industry built around pattern matching can keep promising founders from getting funded before they have a chance to prove themselves.

In this episode of Build Mode () , host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Manan Mehta, co-founder and managing partner of Unshackled Ventures, () to talk about why he believes immigrant founders represent one of venture capital’s biggest overlooked opportunities. Manan breaks down how Unshackled built an investment model designed to help founders navigate immigration barriers, why traditional VC pattern matching causes investors to miss potential outliers, and how his team evaluates founders at day zero—often before they have a product, customers, or traction. He also explains why the structural gaps that make some founders harder to fund may be exactly where investors should be looking for outsized returns.

They get into:

The four structural barriers immigrant founders face when starting companies in the U.S.

How Unshackled Ventures helps founders navigate visas while building their startups

Why VC’s reliance on pattern matching can cause investors to miss outlier founders

How Manan evaluates founders before they have a product, customers, or traction

The IQ, AQ, EQ, and SQ framework Unshackled uses to evaluate founder potential

Why resilience, lived experience, and a founder’s relationship to the problem can matter more than a polished pitch

Why structural gaps can create some of the biggest opportunities for investors

How founders without traditional networks can find alternative paths to early capital

Why founders should understand their personal “why” instead of trying to fit the traditional VC mold
