00:30In fact, I told people this, I said, look, we're probably going to fail, but, you know, we should give
00:33it a try.
00:34Because if we don't, if there's not a new company that enters space, we will never be a truly space

02:00that make you glad to wake up in the morning.
02:03Because you can't wait to see what happens next.
02:07And that's the future that SpaceX wants to bring to you.
