…and water. Now that it looks like human population is peaking, there's not much pressure to inhabit low-value real estate. Space travel belongs to machines. Small ones. Read Ashlee Vance's new book, "When the Heavens Went on Sale". All the action now is in small satellites and small to medium sized rockets. If and when Space-X gets its Starship working, it may turn out to be a white elephant, like the Space Shuttle. There just…
如果你想看更多创业类的故事，阿什利·万斯的《当苍穹待价而沽》（When the Heavens Went on Sale）挺不错的。它详细讲述了除 SpaceX 之外的太空初创企业的早期历史。《创始人：Paypal 与塑造硅谷的企业家们的故事》（The Founders）也相当棒，……

……借着星链（Starlink）大获成功，Astra 吹嘘自己能搞出更好的全球互联网。会讲故事比做好工程和落地执行成了更高的优先级。这本书很值得一读：《当苍穹待价而沽：让太空触手可及的异类与天才》（When the Heavens Went on Sale: The Misfits and Geniuses Racing to Put Space Within Reach）。讲的是 Planet、Astra、Rocket Lab 和 Firefly。书里把 Astra 的 CEO 写得可不怎么样。
…had success with Starlink, Astra promised to have an even better global internet. Having a good story was more the priority then having good engineering and good execution.

……和水。既然现在人类人口看起来快要见顶了，占领那些低价值地皮的紧迫性就没那么高了。太空探索属于机器。小型机器。去读读阿什利·万斯的新书《当苍穹待价而沽》吧。现在的重头戏都在小型卫星以及中小型火箭上。要是哪天 SpaceX 真的把星舰（Starship）搞成了，它可能也会沦为像航天飞机那样的白象工程（大而无用的累赘）。因为根本没……

这两者是相关的。如果你有一个运转良好的工厂，数据收集和优化能让它变得更好。但如果你只有一块空地和一笔钱，那是完全不同的另一码事了。我正在读阿什利·万斯的《当苍穹待价而沽》。书中描写了大多数小型太空发射初创企业，万斯对它们进行了详尽的走访，包括位于鸟不拉屎偏远之地的发射场。它们每一家都不得不白手起家制造火箭。怎么……
