⚙️Building the tools that build the world. ex-NASA, ex-SpinLaunch. Crowdsource advocate. Feed me your crazy concepts.




ELON WANTS TO REPLACE PLANES WITH ROCKETS SpaceX’s Starship could take you from New York to Sydney in under an hour. It skips jetlag by literally launching you into space and back down somewhere else. It’s like teleportation but with fire and Elon energy. Would you ditch planes for rocket rides?

we’ve run a lot of pipelines over the last century… and the majority of the population in the United States lives within 200 miles of the coast If the water needs become acute, like they are in MENA, we’ll do what they do… desalination. And given energy prices plummeting over time, even more reason to believe that desalination will solve the majority of our incremental water needs But I wish you luck and I certainly think it’s worth experimenting with — carefully of course!




California should be the most agriculturally productive place on earth. We can make energy abundant and desalinate the ocean. Desal tech has advanced considerably, as has solar and nuclear. And the brine can be a feedstock for lithium, magnesium, and other critical minerals. California can pivot from rationing to exporting water-intensive specialty crops, all while decarbonising power and creating a new high-tech manufacturing and agriculture sector on the coast. The bottleneck is not physics – it’s regulatory and execution. We should be letting gigascale solar, batteries and SMRs iterate the way silicon did in the 80s and 90s. Water shortage solved, Central Valley super-charged, new export economy unlocked. Thats the playbook.
