  • "Great dreams aren't just visions," says Astro Teller, "They're visions coupled to strategies for making them real." The head of X (formerly Google X), Teller takes us inside the "moonshot factory," as it's called, where his team seeks to solve the world's biggest problems through experimental projects like balloon-powered Internet and wind turbines that sail through the air. Find out X's secret to creating an organization where people feel comfortable working on big, risky projects and exploring audacious ideas.

    Astro Teller is the best fake name I've ever heard, even if it's his real name.

    With a name like Astro Teller, I'm surprised he hasn't run for president.

    Half a moonshot is no good at all, by leaps and bounds! Those who recognize this and end their project/s need to be recognized and rewarded. Thanks Teller...

    Did you try modifying the soil bacteria to suit the staple crops like rice, wheat, corn? I hope you share ALL the data when you fail and close a project, give what you learned to the world, someone else will figure it out, or save time and not fail next time.

    I so badly needed the motivation to get through the difficult phase of my research as a high schooler. I really gotta thank this guy, I will be excited to fail from now on!

    Sounds like a really amazing culture at X. They've turned the table on the idea of failure to be rewarded instead of admonished. Failure is their success and everyone has to invest in that idea to prosper at X. "Enthusiastic scepticism is NOT the enemy of boundless optimmism. It's optimises perfect partner. It unlocks the potential in every idea"
