Hardly. He has his own vision and isn’t trying to play catch up. Slow and steady wins the race.

This made my day! I love Iridium – use it as emergency comms for my mountaineering adventures. These two companies are such a perfect fit and I look forward to RKLB growing the Iridium TAM. I have been investing since the stock was at $6/share and just bought some more on the news. I think we will revisit $150/share sooner than expected and based on technical analysis may push towards the $200/share.

SpaceX is facing fierce criticism for demanding a massive $2 trillion valuation—trading at a staggering 109 times its annual sales—despite reporting a deep net loss of $4.9 billion due to astronomical capital expenditures.

SpaceX is making more than $2 billion a month on the 5 billion data center net capex. They pay back that expense in 2.5 months. They’re selling 28 billion a year from that alone. 5 billion sounds like a lot of money, but it’s nearly insignifcant compared to that cash flow.

It’s fascinating how numb the business world is to how this deal would be financed. Back decades ago, I toured the Iridium factory and saw these tiny satellites up close. They later went bankrupt and became a business school case study into how to not finance with debt

LMAO, a single launch facility will never “Challenge” spaceX. You’d better ramp it up 10x.

Mass of neutron is ~1800 times that electron. Can the Neutron Rocket carry 1800 times payload that Electron? I’m kidding – Neutron should be able to carry a lot more 🙂
