If anyone has a vested interest in space solar power, it would have to be me.

If humanity doesn't land on Mars in my lifetime, I would be very disappointed.

In order for us to have a future that's exciting and inspiring, it has to be one where we're a space-bearing civilization.

If you look at our current technology level, something strange has to happen to civilisations, and I mean strange in a bad way. And it could be that there are a whole lot of dead, one-planet civilisations.

What I'm trying to do is, is to make a significant difference in space flight. And help make space flight accessible to almost anyone.

If we're going to have any chance of sending stuff to other star systems, we need to be laser-focused on becoming a multi-planet civilisation.
