Yeah it's ridiculous. 99.999% of all companies do nothing to deal with the urgent problems here on earth. In fact most of them are escalating the problems. Why should a man who through Tesla and Solar City is trying to make clean energy practical and affordable be under so much scrutiny because he also happens to wanna send people to Mars? What has he done that justifies him being held to such radically higher standards than any other CEO?
muchograndeyolatengo because we have to go to Mars. Better chance of survival. Also, when the earth is too hot to live, Mars will be our home. We have to get started sometime. Better do it now

That should be the goal for everyone, to journey out into the galaxy and visit other solar system's/see other civilizations on other planets. We already know they are flying around out there, they just haven't properly introduced themselves to us yet. (For obvious reasons)
She has most visionary and can-do attitude of anyone I've seen. Not only that, but she can also hold a conversation a lot better than Elon. Just from this talk alone, I think you can see why she is where she is. She is one of the many components that is making the company so successful.
Its just take 8.30 min to reach earth orbit aka space. And 90 min to take complete one orbit with speed 17500 miles/hr as ISS moving... So its quite possible
Do you imagine the contamination on the planet generated by dozens of those being deployed each day? Space X is already burning lots of fossil fuels... By the way, no one talks about the gulf of mexico, even here in mexico no one seems to care about the radioactive scraps of starship that landed there, it is kind of sad.
She manages the relationships with private companies and government leaders. She is in charge of sales and maintaining those relationships. She does a great job at it, too. All while knowing the ins and out of the rocket etc... great fit
Liam Dunphy he is the head engineer he isn’t just a businessman at heart he is an engineer and spends around a hundred hours weekly on doing what he loves (engineering) and carrying out his dreams
That's a real woman, secure and confident in her ability and self. Feminists should look up to woman like her and cut out their bullshit. Today's feminists looks more like insecure, attention seeking bitches.
The Panacea 2:20 she states to sell rockets, "it's all about relationships and making a connection with these customers [NASA]..."?#%*? so itz not about the quality/efficiency/tech advances/SAFETY/etc??! she gives me a feeling that at least one of her TRUE top priorities is not the safety of future passengers
Of course that's her top priority.. would you buy a car when you know there's a high chance of dying in it? And selling the rockets is necessary to succeed in their vision. It's literally their businessmodel.
PNathan itz over your head...cant discuss w ppl like u who think theyre bright but not. u practically made a baseless assumption... my guess is that it is more likely that not that safety is NOT her TOP priority (ie, not her #1 priority). the Co will of course say to the public that safety is their top priority but in reality it will likely be just one of their priorities. but hey, this is just my opinion. my point was specifically on how she responded to that question. try thinking about it AGAIN and dont be so naive

Technically, she isn't wrong. But... You don't get to pick when to take off. You don't get to pick where to take off. You don't get to pick where to land. You spend several days preparing for the flight. The weather must be absolutely perfect. Your flight will be rescheduled several times at the last second.
Good question. Channels and media stations only give people what they want to see, mostly. So blame the large majority of passive TV viewers who don't even care what is served up in front of them? And government run TV stations have their own agenda altogether. Luckily like minded and interested people like us also have TH-cam and the rest of the internet where news and info like this is freely available and accessible to ANYONE around the world. Well, almost everyone. Some countries still censor their internet but that's not TH-cam or SpaceX's fault.

Gwynne Shotwell is now one of my heros - especially how she exposed herself at the end as being a super nerd by saying she wants to meet aliens - that's awesome.
Feminism is cancer. Precisely because she is no feminist, just a FEMALE HUMAN doing the SAME JOB as any other HUMAN, she is so successful. She's a woman that's good at her job. Just like Elon is a man that's good at his job. No feminist cancer, no identity politics, NONE OF IT.
@Andrew Brent Point is she didn't make a big deal out of the fact she was a women, because that wasn't important. Modern extreme "feminists" tend to be the people pushing for positive discrimination, blaming the patriarchy for everything, publicly expressing a hatred for men, etc. This is of course a vast minority, but it's kinda tainted the word a little.
I think you're confusing things here. Feminist activism is important. If not for these feminist activists u despise, women like Gwynne would not have ever allowed to pursue their dreams.
She doesn't have to be some man-hating crazy feminist to be where she is...The real work in western counties was done long ago...This feminism nowadays is toxic, they even attack other women...They talk about toxic masculinity, they should stop and look in the mirror as they are corrosive to anyone who disagrees.
It'll probably only be astronauts and other scientists living there for the first decade or so. Lots of dangers in everyday life and lots of infrastructure needs to be set up in those settings for a relatively stable life. Industrial companies will come eventually and some time after that, it'll be feasible for average people to go there. But it'll still be with massive compromises: no ocean, no outdoor nature, small living quarters, risky being on the surface and/or limited freedom of travel. Earth will remain a paradise in comparison for at least a hundred years. And even then, only a global cataclysm would make Mars better overall.
@@johnpearcey Even a seasonal SARS-CoV-2 is nothing compared to the unforgiving environment on Mars. I guess you'd come close if you're locked in a self-sustained bunker like Survival Condo, Kansas. But you'd still have the luxury of live communication with people on Earth, quick access to modern supplies and products from Earth's economy etc.
Using their rockets to go from New York to Shanghai reminds me of the Concorde. It was a brilliant idea that couldn't be economized into a lasting reality.
Not to mention the Concorde didn't have to be treated like a massive bomb when it was fueled and ready to fly. If people think that the on/off boarding process for one of these rockets wont be hours on hours, they have never seen a rocket prep for flight. Especially when you cant just launch one in the middle of your city.
The problem with a supersonic aircraft is that it has to push its way through the atmosphere for the entire flight. A suborbital vehicle just has to climb up above the atmosphere, then it is much easier to accelerate. It only has to consume propellant as it is doing that, and then again when it lands. It does not have to push itself through the air for the entire trip.
Yeah, it’s totally impracticable. First they won’t be permitted to launch. Second boarding will be very difficult and slow. 3rd the landing will be extremely dangerous.
Suborbital travel between different parts of Earth is far from a new idea but in a world where even sub sonic airliners are being criticized for their fuel use, a rocket doesn't sound like a very good idea. From my home in the North of England it is possible to travel to London by car and train, in the morning, and then fly to California arriving in time for dinner. Very few people need to travel faster than that.
BioQuickie - It really is. These people fail to realize the solutions to alot of major problems here are the same solutions Mars needs. A Mars program gives us immediate incentive to find these solutions.
Agreed. People fail to realize that one of the potential benefits of interplanetary travel is that resources that are scarce on earth might just be available on other planets. Take for instance Titan, a moon of Saturn. It has an atmosphere of methane a resource that is on the decline on Earth. Also it is to be noted that in order to reach a point where we can make inter planetary travel commercially viable we need to test. Sure the results that arise by testing launches may not be fruitful but the lessons learned may be and will make future launches better hopefully. The same applied to the development of cars and airplanes. So I don't see any excuse for rockets.
Jacques Gunville Yeh, women who want to know how a car works when they are teenagers, not an interest most women share. But of course if the interest is there, then they can definitely do it well.
Jacques Gunville Your comment. youre not that bright are u? a president of a Co should always represent the Co in the best manner possible....esp on a ted talk, no? U absolutely praise her which makes me question your judgement. understand now?
16:52 “Within a decade.” We’re four years away from that decade mark. Starship has yet to achieve orbit with an empty payload, has yet to return a booster intact, and has yet to successfully re-enter. There is absolutely no way it will be flying ordinary passengers to terrestrial destinations in 4 years. Just the safety certification alone is likely a decade away from first getting it working in space, and we haven’t even reached that milestone yet.
Ganesh: Not only does she use her engineering knowledge to take care of production, she uses her interpersonal skills, to, as she said, "SELL" the Rockets to Government and other users. She is an inspiration, not only to women, but to men as well. And her name is "SHOTWELL" and she sees to it that all of SpaceX's Space SHOTS go WELL! How "Falcon" COOL IS THAT!
TED conference 2030: This is how Elon Musk ran the biggest Ponzi scheme in History using herd mentality, the age of influence and engineering illiteracy.
time is precious for the privileged few.For us normal people, once BFR comes, expect business class to be extinct.Premium economy and economy will be the new norm.
What people who say that we have other problems to solve don't get, is that when we're pushing the boundaries of technology in one area, it will ripple down to other industries to benefit the masses. As she said, residual capabilities. For example, NASA has developed memory foam and the computer mouse among many other things that we use everyday.
Dear NASA, ...all the time and all the money in the world 08:03 does not yield the best solution, 08:05 and so putting that pressure on the team to move quickly is really important. Love, The American Tax Payer
Lovely setup between the interviewer and Gwynne. Of course he knew the answers, and she had all the questions beforehand, but it still flowed beautifully. A joy to watch - thank you. 🙏
Say incredible things, watch people drool, rake in investment $$$. She said it herself....it’s a sales pitch. Meanwhile, physics and thermodynamics still rule. Saved to my “funny videos” playlist.
EnLiGhTeNME How is saying that we are progressing towards the future / scifi world that people love (Star Trek)... a bad comment. You seem rude for no reason.
Nothing of that will happen. Just like Hyperloop wont happen, and even his Loop which was supposed to be automated 4400 people / hour transit at 155mph turned out to be an underground Tesla taxi station, moving at most 1000 people an hour, with a driver at 30mph. Musk is good at getting tax money, everything else is vaporware, that could be done by an xy person with the secured funding.
It's one of Elon's clones. One of the earlier version of the models that escaped, and aged too rapidly. I think they fixed the aging bug in the subsequent models.
Gwynne Shotwell got into engineering but she doesnt understand basic school grade physics and chemistry. literally a salesperson that sells nothing with the promise of everything and ppl are that dumbed down notice the double speak and empty sentences.
If you want to sell space, just tell people that you'll be mining so much rare metals off of asteroids that our cars will literally be built out of platinum and gold, and it won't cost us much extra.
must be a great feeling to do what you love, surround yourself with brilliant people and push the human race forward! keep going! i will do the same with my content as well!
Anyone else here in 2024 just before the first starship booster catch, after getting a global constellation, connecting the entire globe, waiting for the first moon and then mars mission in this decade, being months away from point to point travel to Australia, look how far we have come !
no problem. I'd love to work for them, too. But I'm currently on my Bachelor thesis Mechatronics in Germany. And I don't want to move to america. Sad. :(
Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see all of it happen, but according to SpaceX the BFR launch cost is going to be 7 million $... if you take 100 people with you, thats still 70000$ a seat, so not really between economy and business. Also, the fact that making the trip many times a day won't bring down ticket prices, since you still have to pay the 7 Million $ per launch.. Anyways, definitely looking forward to what BFR is going to enable!
Like Chad seid, 100 is for sending people to mars on a 3 months trip with cargo. And Gwynne Shotwell said that 100 is the amount of seats in the beginning, I think 500-1000 seats in a sub orbital BFR is the planned number.
Incorrect...The $7M figure is for cargo flights (LEO,GTO and beyond) not human point to point flights...this is important because of many things but one in particular is the fuel...because they will be using a minuscule amount compared to cargo flights. The cost of launching a BFR for point to point could probably be lower than $1M (cost per ticket still expensive) however as Shotwell said, bigger BFR's will be built and could have a capacity of 200/300/400 people which will bring the cost down (in the case of a 400 person BFR at a $1M flight cost, the ticket could be $2,500). And to bring the cost down further, they will be producing the fuel with the use of Renewable energy. Current estimates the cost of Fuel for the BFR to be around $500,000 to $600,000 per flight again those figures are for cargo not point to point. So basically...it is 100% plausible that the ticket cost of a flight on a BFR could be affordable.
working with Elon would be the greatest! Gwynne has a great job. I still know I have time to see new developments in my life. It's exciting to see them talked about.
3 years in 7 years to go and im still convinced flying people around planet in rockets like in planes will not happen at all while Musk sending people to Mars might happen in 30 years
Of course it won't happen. The Muskovites on here are so gullible. He could claim he'd invented a star trek style teleporter and they'd go all glassy eyed. He could stand on stage and jingle his keys at the crowd and they'd still throw themselves at his feet and hail him as a genius.
Reliability issues, as in chance of death high Cost issues, as in Concorde++ Spacesuit, 5g and other comfort issues Fueling a massive rocket with passengers aboard right before a potentially weather-delayed launch issues Launch sites far away from cities (due to noise and danger) issues Good luck with that

“Mars is a fixer upper planet there’s work to be done there... but I want to meet people, or whatever they call themselves, in other solar systems!” Love this enthusiasm 🚀👩🏻🚀
That should be the goal for everyone, to journey out into the galaxy and visit other solar system's/see other civilizations on other planets. We already know they are flying around out there, they just haven't properly introduced themselves to us yet. (For obvious reasons)
Christine Ra I would be grateful to meet you.
I covet her job.
She is awesome.. no wonder they do so good...if Elon gathered a team of such amazing persons...they can literally achieve everything they planed on.
Seems like an ordinary woman to me. What is it you like?
She has most visionary and can-do attitude of anyone I've seen. Not only that, but she can also hold a conversation a lot better than Elon. Just from this talk alone, I think you can see why she is where she is. She is one of the many components that is making the company so successful.
She's a PR women, selling a fake dream, an illusionist
You can see how well she is put together. Her mannerisms, articulation, social acuity. Special woman.
Why would they "plane" anything when they can rocket there. haha.
I would not get even to my college in 1 hour, and SpaceX is promising us to travel round the earth in just 1 hr.
Salute to SpaceX✋
@James Sempy Modern problems require modern solutions
When you move 14000 miles an hour you can really get somewere
🤣😂
even when that happens, your college might still take 1 hour to each
Its just take 8.30 min to reach earth orbit aka space. And 90 min to take complete one orbit with speed 17500 miles/hr as ISS moving... So its quite possible
Given the evens this week, doesn't look like that timetable is going to hold up. What a surprise...
Do you imagine the contamination on the planet generated by dozens of those being deployed each day?
Space X is already burning lots of fossil fuels... By the way, no one talks about the gulf of mexico, even here in mexico no one seems to care about the radioactive scraps of starship that landed there, it is kind of sad.
This episode was Shotwell!
nice...
now thats a smart comment NQ :)
Top comment.
how dare you
haha I see what you did there. Smart
Ok, can you guys work together with Amazon and Alibaba now? I need one-day shipping available globally now.
It usually takes a day to get it to major hub distribution center, then launch it to orbit from there and then shoot it through your roof from orbit?
Why would Amazon work with SpaceX when Benzos owns Blue Origin?
kokofan50 because BO hasn't been to orbit yet? buuurrrn. XD
Run small packages from a drone to a rocket to a different drone that goes to your house. Why not?
Like that outbreak of which you speak could cross the world in a day anyway, it's not that vast a difference

This woman is doing so much yet she seems so humble.
That's a real woman, secure and confident in her ability and self. Feminists should look up to woman like her and cut out their bullshit. Today's feminists looks more like insecure, attention seeking bitches.
Imti Jamir yessss !!!!
Hi can you tell me how? I don't see her as humble... (it's a genuine question not trying to be sarcastic or anything just want to learn)
Being humble is one of the prerequisites for doing so much.
@@yangerjamir0906 I'm sure she is a feminist. Because she is very smart.

Its so refreshing to see unhinged ambition in the intrest of human kind.
The Panacea yes, because surely aren't a few billion dollars in the middle of the matter
money is only a human construct...
The Panacea 2:20 she states to sell rockets, "it's all about relationships and making a connection with these customers [NASA]..."?#%*? so itz not about the quality/efficiency/tech advances/SAFETY/etc??! she gives me a feeling that at least one of her TRUE top priorities is not the safety of future passengers
Of course that's her top priority.. would you buy a car when you know there's a high chance of dying in it? And selling the rockets is necessary to succeed in their vision. It's literally their businessmodel.
PNathan itz over your head...cant discuss w ppl like u who think theyre bright but not.
u practically made a baseless assumption... my guess is that it is more likely that not that safety is NOT her TOP priority (ie, not her #1 priority). the Co will of course say to the public that safety is their top priority but in reality it will likely be just one of their priorities. but hey, this is just my opinion. my point was specifically on how she responded to that question. try thinking about it AGAIN and dont be so naive
Gwynne = Pepper Potts

You want to follow a rockstar? Didn't USA learn from following a TV personality?

I wonder if they're considering the name "BAMF Truck." They already got the Models S,3,X. Someone's gotta go there and ask who's in charge of product nomenclature and push for "BAMF Truck."
No!!! Elon is a fan of Starwar.
They sound so similar, it almost doesn't matter lol
Like the Die Hard movie when Bruce Wills says: “Yippee Kiyay Mr. Falcon”
Technically, she isn't wrong. But...
You don't get to pick when to take off.

Why is their progress not on the TV and everywhere all the time? It is literally the most important thing in the world.
Good question. Channels and media stations only give people what they want to see, mostly. So blame the large majority of passive TV viewers who don't even care what is served up in front of them? And government run TV stations have their own agenda altogether. Luckily like minded and interested people like us also have TH-cam and the rest of the internet where news and info like this is freely available and accessible to ANYONE around the world. Well, almost everyone. Some countries still censor their internet but that's not TH-cam or SpaceX's fault.

It's changing though - little by little. Hopefully, in time. 😉
Gwynne Shotwell is now one of my heros - especially how she exposed herself at the end as being a super nerd by saying she wants to meet aliens - that's awesome.
Gwynne is lovely, an amazing role model for women around the world. Intelligent, humble, no silly feminist attitude.
No silly feminist attitude~she's an incredible role model of what/how women should strive to be!
Feminism is cancer. Precisely because she is no feminist, just a FEMALE HUMAN doing the SAME JOB as any other HUMAN, she is so successful. She's a woman that's good at her job. Just like Elon is a man that's good at his job. No feminist cancer, no identity politics, NONE OF IT.
@Andrew Brent
Point is she didn't make a big deal out of the fact she was a women, because that wasn't important. Modern extreme "feminists" tend to be the people pushing for positive discrimination, blaming the patriarchy for everything, publicly expressing a hatred for men, etc. This is of course a vast minority, but it's kinda tainted the word a little.
I think you're confusing things here. Feminist activism is important. If not for these feminist activists u despise, women like Gwynne would not have ever allowed to pursue their dreams.
She doesn't have to be some man-hating crazy feminist to be where she is...The real work in western counties was done long ago...This feminism nowadays is toxic, they even attack other women...They talk about toxic masculinity, they should stop and look in the mirror as they are corrosive to anyone who disagrees.

Gwynne Shotwell for President 2030... on Mars.
Nah, there will be a " Elon of mars" by then. 😉
People in 2016: “OmG I’m immigrating to Canada the US is so bad!
People in 2026: OmG I’m immigrating to Mars earth is so bad!
It'll probably only be astronauts and other scientists living there for the first decade or so. Lots of dangers in everyday life and lots of infrastructure needs to be set up in those settings for a relatively stable life. Industrial companies will come eventually and some time after that, it'll be feasible for average people to go there. But it'll still be with massive compromises: no ocean, no outdoor nature, small living quarters, risky being on the surface and/or limited freedom of travel. Earth will remain a paradise in comparison for at least a hundred years. And even then, only a global cataclysm would make Mars better overall.
@@Muskar2 Planet Earth under Covid-19 lockdown forever or Mars?? Tough choice.
@@johnpearcey Even a seasonal SARS-CoV-2 is nothing compared to the unforgiving environment on Mars. I guess you'd come close if you're locked in a self-sustained bunker like Survival Condo, Kansas. But you'd still have the luxury of live communication with people on Earth, quick access to modern supplies and products from Earth's economy etc.
Using their rockets to go from New York to Shanghai reminds me of the Concorde. It was a brilliant idea that couldn't be economized into a lasting reality.
Not to mention the Concorde didn't have to be treated like a massive bomb when it was fueled and ready to fly. If people think that the on/off boarding process for one of these rockets wont be hours on hours, they have never seen a rocket prep for flight. Especially when you cant just launch one in the middle of your city.
They didn't have Elon Musk on their team...
The problem with a supersonic aircraft is that it has to push its way through the atmosphere for the entire flight. A suborbital vehicle just has to climb up above the atmosphere, then it is much easier to accelerate. It only has to consume propellant as it is doing that, and then again when it lands. It does not have to push itself through the air for the entire trip.
Yeah, it’s totally impracticable. First they won’t be permitted to launch. Second boarding will be very difficult and slow. 3rd the landing will be extremely dangerous.
Suborbital travel between different parts of Earth is far from a new idea but in a world where even sub sonic airliners are being criticized for their fuel use, a rocket doesn't sound like a very good idea. From my home in the North of England it is possible to travel to London by car and train, in the morning, and then fly to California arriving in time for dinner. Very few people need to travel faster than that.
The argument that there are problems on earth so we shouldn't go to Mars is so ignorant and sort sighted.
BioQuickie - It really is. These people fail to realize the solutions to alot of major problems here are the same solutions Mars needs. A Mars program gives us immediate incentive to find these solutions.
Agreed. People fail to realize that one of the potential benefits of interplanetary travel is that resources that are scarce on earth might just be available on other planets. Take for instance Titan, a moon of Saturn. It has an atmosphere of methane a resource that is on the decline on Earth. Also it is to be noted that in order to reach a point where we can make inter planetary travel commercially viable we need to test. Sure the results that arise by testing launches may not be fruitful but the lessons learned may be and will make future launches better hopefully. The same applied to the development of cars and airplanes. So I don't see any excuse for rockets.
I feel like SpaceX will become MCRN in the expanse. and I'd join in a heartbeat
So sort sighted..
Especially when one of the reasons why we should go to Mars is BECAUSE of some of the problems on Earth!
15:25 Today October 13, 2024 is a special day to remember this video. These guys are crafting a magnificent chapter in world history.
She's the best for Spacex. Proof that women can do it also.
Jacques Gunville Yeh, women who want to know how a car works when they are teenagers, not an interest most women share. But of course if the interest is there, then they can definitely do it well.
Jacques Gunville your thoughts about women lacking in this world can make u miss the more critical points. dont be distracted
joapps Wath make you think that i mist it. Are you telepath?
Jacques Gunville Your comment. youre not that bright are u? a president of a Co should always represent the Co in the best manner possible....esp on a ted talk, no? U absolutely praise her which makes me question your judgement. understand now?
joapps You realy realy hate women don't you? You see black where there is none.
16:52 “Within a decade.” We’re four years away from that decade mark. Starship has yet to achieve orbit with an empty payload, has yet to return a booster intact, and has yet to successfully re-enter. There is absolutely no way it will be flying ordinary passengers to terrestrial destinations in 4 years. Just the safety certification alone is likely a decade away from first getting it working in space, and we haven’t even reached that milestone yet.
Why would any country allow rockets (big icbm's) to land right next to their major cities?
What an amazing lady. Without her, I bet, spaceX would be struggling. Elon needs someone like her at Tesla to take care of production.
They are already strugling, the compagny is living of rich people and compagny who believe in Elon
Just recently done. His name is Jerome Guillen. President of Tesla auto.
Ganesh:
Not only does she use her engineering knowledge to take care of production, she uses her interpersonal skills, to, as she said, "SELL" the Rockets to Government and other users.
She is an inspiration, not only to women, but to men as well.

they retired the Concorde for a reason because in the travel industry speed does not sell over comfort

What people who say that we have other problems to solve don't get, is that when we're pushing the boundaries of technology in one area, it will ripple down to other industries to benefit the masses.

Lovely setup between the interviewer and Gwynne.
Of course he knew the answers, and she had all the questions beforehand, but it still flowed beautifully.

I am rewatching it now and could not help be amazed by how much progress were made since then and yet were considered un-believable then...
I like the way she describes "old technology" - legacy systems...

Who else can’t wait to come back to this video in another decade or so to comment about whether or not any of this happened?
Nothing of that will happen. Just like Hyperloop wont happen, and even his Loop which was supposed to be automated 4400 people / hour transit at 155mph turned out to be an underground Tesla taxi station, moving at most 1000 people an hour, with a driver at 30mph. Musk is good at getting tax money, everything else is vaporware, that could be done by an xy person with the secured funding.
@@kurosumomo i don't understand how people can be so naive and swallow every bullshit Musk throws at them.
7 years to go… I’ll believe it when I see it
It's now four years left and they barely got the thing up in space and down again without blowing up.
The interviewer looks like he could be Elon's father. They even talk in a similar way. That is Elon from the future maybe?
It's one of Elon's clones. One of the earlier version of the models that escaped, and aged too rapidly. I think they fixed the aging bug in the subsequent models.
...Elon I'm your father...
Totally agree. They sound just the same. :)
Busted by Thuderfoot! :)
Gwynne Shotwell got into engineering but she doesnt understand basic school grade physics and chemistry. literally a salesperson that sells nothing with the promise of everything and ppl are that dumbed down notice the double speak and empty sentences.
If you want to sell space, just tell people that you'll be mining so much rare metals off of asteroids that our cars will literally be built out of platinum and gold, and it won't cost us much extra.
shes smart and confident , good choice Musk
They just successfully launch falcon 9 with human in orbit, and i think we will be watching them soon on being successful in mars mission
and within 4 days another launch for starling project

Anyone else here in 2024 just before the first starship booster catch, after getting a global constellation, connecting the entire globe, waiting for the first moon and then mars mission in this decade, being months away from point to point travel to Australia, look how far we have come !
Gwynne is fantastic. I love her!
She's so amazing! and has such a great view on the future!!!
5 more years to go guys
Gwynne Shotwell, what a smart woman. I would love to work at SpaceX! Do you hire people of 60+ in Europe?
as far as I know, they only hire people in america. Take a look at www.spacex.com/careers
You're right, well hope people are motivated to work there. It's surely a great company with super ideals. Thanks!
no problem. I'd love to work for them, too. But I'm currently on my Bachelor thesis Mechatronics in Germany. And I don't want to move to america. Sad. :(
Love her. She’s smart and likable. So basically Elon’s translator.
I like Ms Gwynne, she's smart, articulate, & wonderfully charismatic. Our future is looking bright!
She exactly smiles like Bernadette Rostenkowski
.
Haha! Yes exactly the same! U r absolutely right. N im a dentist so that's a professional opinion !
She is doing an amazing job for SpaceX! Thumbs up, I will follow your progress :-)
I love this woman! (In a "she's not only hot, she's the power behind making Elon's SpaceX vision a reality" way!)
Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see all of it happen, but according to SpaceX the BFR launch cost is going to be 7 million $... if you take 100 people with you, thats still 70000$ a seat, so not really between economy and business. Also, the fact that making the trip many times a day won't bring down ticket prices, since you still have to pay the 7 Million $ per launch.. Anyways, definitely looking forward to what BFR is going to enable!
100 people is to send people to mars
It's definitely not for the ordinary person, however there are many adventurous rich people willing to take a quick ride to nowhere.
John Smith - The passenger version for transportation will be able to hold 800+ people.
Like Chad seid, 100 is for sending people to mars on a 3 months trip with cargo. And Gwynne Shotwell said that 100 is the amount of seats in the beginning, I think 500-1000 seats in a sub orbital BFR is the planned number.
Incorrect...The $7M figure is for cargo flights (LEO,GTO and beyond) not human point to point flights...this is important because of many things but one in particular is the fuel...because they will be using a minuscule amount compared to cargo flights.
The cost of launching a BFR for point to point could probably be lower than $1M (cost per ticket still expensive) however as Shotwell said, bigger BFR's will be built and could have a capacity of 200/300/400 people which will bring the cost down (in the case of a 400 person BFR at a $1M flight cost, the ticket could be $2,500).
And to bring the cost down further, they will be producing the fuel with the use of Renewable energy.
Current estimates the cost of Fuel for the BFR to be around $500,000 to $600,000 per flight again those figures are for cargo not point to point. So basically...it is 100% plausible that the ticket cost of a flight on a BFR could be affordable.
working with Elon would be the greatest! Gwynne has a great job. I still know I have time to see new developments in my life. It's exciting to see them talked about.
3 years in 7 years to go and im still convinced flying people around planet in rockets like in planes will not happen at all while Musk sending people to Mars might happen in 30 years
Of course it won't happen. The Muskovites on here are so gullible. He could claim he'd invented a star trek style teleporter and they'd go all glassy eyed. He could stand on stage and jingle his keys at the crowd and they'd still throw themselves at his feet and hail him as a genius.
15:25 Her Confidence 🔥❤
Excellent speaker, excellent confidence, really looking forward to seeing what they are going to do. I believe in yaw !!!!!👏👏👏
Now imagine what a flat earthers must be "thinking" about this 😂
Reliability issues, as in chance of death high
Cost issues, as in Concorde++
Spacesuit, 5g and other comfort issues
Fueling a massive rocket with passengers aboard right before a potentially weather-delayed launch issues
Launch sites far away from cities (due to noise and danger) issues
Good luck with that
