I've been reporting this story basically for a decade. LA was a space power that had fallen on tough times. Now it's back with a vengeance and is the clear capital of New Space. No better guide to explain how this happened than the rocket god Tom Mueller. Hope you enjoy!
@@B21_raider yes, but they have seen better days in many, many ways. whole book on it here www.amazon.com/dp/0062998870/ref=redir_mobile_desktop?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&ref_=tmm_hrd_swatch_0&sr=
After Tom left SpaceX, I thought he had retired and was no longer in the world of aerospace industry, I didn't know that now he has his own company, it's good to see that someone at this level of experience and expertise still is a part of this industry.
It’s kind of nice though because it lets you see who these people really are and that they’re somewhat normal people. I think it would encourage more people to try to do what they’re doing
Thanks to Ashley for covering Tom. Tom's work at TRW paved the way for SpaceX, and his work at SpaceX itself on their Falcon rockets is a major reason for their success.
I never heard of Impulse Space until now. Turns out they are within spitting distance from my home in Torrance. So cool to think amazing innovations are taking place in my own backyard!
Ashley I don’t know if you read this - but thank you for sharing with the world these great individuals changing the world for the better. Your documentary’s always make me excited for the future - thank you!
Wow! Computing and data farms in Space is a really cool, outside the box, idea. Geosynchronous or Lagrange positioning would be most beneficial methinks.
What an inspiring Space Tale. Currently reading 'Elon Musk' by Walter Isaacson, and I came across Tom multiple times. So excited to finally see him up close.
Reaaaaaally wish you hadnt just faded out on Tom explaining the core of his buisness and how the engines are going to function. Or at least make a for nerds version for those that have a shot at understanding
@@valleyhack It might be worth checking with Tom Mueller first though I once watched a marathon 4 hour 15 minute video he gave to students at Launch Canada, where he went into great detail on everything -- including indepth about Merlin reusability. He apparently said too much because all records of that video have been stricken from the internet
Best TH-cam content, sadly not getting the millions of views it should be.... the "art broll" to cover the top secret technology was next level awesome TV.
Great video as always- love seeing the space industry continue to evolve. Will be interesting if companies like RocketLab can gain market share from SpaceX etc..
Rocket Lab has no intentions of competing with SpaceX, at least in the 5-10yr frame. Rocket Lab is a small payload launch company, whereas SpaceX is a medium to large.
@@VincentKarabouladMusique In theory, but to make a reusable rocket, you don't do it in 2 years, you need more than 5 years, it will take a while to see that rocket
That is an absolute brilliant idea that I haven't heard before. Putting large server farms in orbit where you can make them constantly run off solar and in a vacuum so it's cold it's a fantastic idea.
Such great quality and super interesting content! What Tom said about putting servers and computing power on the moon with solar power in space powering it and beaming the results on Earth actually is a very interesting idea.
I wonder if having all the computer power or most of it ... exposed to a solar wave storm would be a risk for a total erase of the human civilization memory at that moment... ( for what I have heard of computers exposed to solar flares and its magnetic fields)... what about using the Earth´s hot core first and all its volcanic energy as primary source?
This is awesomely beautiful, space tech pioneers appearing in the part of the USA first opened up by earlier pioneers! They are inspired, not deterred, by the vast distances of our solar system and its all thanks to the amazing earliest space tech pioneer Elon Musk and his SpaceX! Great coverage, as usual, by Ashlee Vance! I’m stoked! Did I just write stoke?😅
With Blue Origin, Firefly, Axiom and SpaceX among its residents, I consider Texas at the forefront of the space industry here in the U.S. isn’t Houston called Space City???
The reason why Moon data centers powered by Solar panels won't work is the lack of atmosphere which on earth shields the surface from meteorites. The meteorite impact on the moon is constant and any large area solar farm will be subjected to impacts and damage.
Like Tom won a lottery. Meanwhile, there's the rest of us, working for the nameless startups in the last 15 minutes, hoping we vest before the buyout & the stonk options are worth more than 0 this time.

Its quaont that people fret about the fuel consumption of a small, light car while watching videos about rockets that burn more RP1 in one second than the total gross weight of the Porsche with both people in it.
I like Toms ambition to walk or ride on the moon. After Artemis 4 it seems like everything will be in place for private manned moon landings to happen. Initially prices may be similar to what it presently costs to just goto the ISS but eventually they may come down many times lower. Hundreds and eventually thousands of people will be landing on the moon every year.
Space hardening isn't as required as people made it out to be. One of the things SpaceX was able to pioneer that enabled low-cost rocketry was using off the shelf equipment rather than using super expensive trumped up ultra space hardened equipment like NASA does. This has led to many companies outside of the military/space industrial complex companies, to also push this concept and through many trials they have found that in many cases a lot of equipment was being way overengineered.

I absolutely loved watching that, it would be great if Tom got a chance to fly with Jarred Issacman on a Polaris mission
After Tom left SpaceX, I thought he had retired and was no longer in the world of aerospace industry, I didn't know that now he has his own company, it's good to see that someone at this level of experience and expertise still is a part of this industry.
I think it so much a part of him. It’s one of his life purposes. What a life he must have. Am a bit jealous 😅
As a young aerospace engineer in LA, I love seeing the history and the city captured in this awesome documentary
Ashlee Vance is the best at finding people involved in space and finding many ways to talk as little about space as possible.
🤣
It’s a space documentary for those with a passing interest in space, haha. Hence the 5 minute segment on fast cars…
Check out our other bloomberg originals series Giant Leap and Moonshot for lots more space
It’s kind of nice though because it lets you see who these people really are and that they’re somewhat normal people. I think it would encourage more people to try to do what they’re doing
@@JB-dv7ew I'm sorry but I'm interested in space, not in the personality of people interested in space.
Never disappointed Ashley Vance always excellent!
I love Bloomberg documentaries - but this one particularly. Thx to the whole team making this information-loaded content piece

No one reading that book is allowed here
@@valleyhack I was wondering how you felt about Isaacson's book. This answers my question! 😆
@@valleyhackobviously
@@angellacanforaWhat’s the controversy with the book?

This video made me tingle
Fun and entertaining video kudos guys 😆
Tom Muller must be a descendant of one of the first German engineers developing the V2. His rocket skills are impressive ❤
His surname is actually German. :)
Bingo..... everybody kind of follows their father's footsteps. It's weird isn't it ???....
If he really German then pronunciation is moo ler not miu ler

The cool thing about SpaceX is that it makes it seem like a goofy stoner losing money is "success". Truly inspiring.

Lol as "they" forage and extract old ideas from my head....We are going to be left behind.
considering how much hardening is required to get a laptop in space... servers in space sounds like a big no...
Space hardening isn't as required as people made it out to be. One of the things SpaceX was able to pioneer that enabled low-cost rocketry was using off the shelf equipment rather than using super expensive trumped up ultra space hardened equipment like NASA does.
This has led to many companies outside of the military/space industrial complex companies, to also push this concept and through many trials they have found that in many cases a lot of equipment was being way overengineered.
