On today's episode, I give my thought on how every four years, our country has a referendum on what's most important to the people. I wish we focused on keeping humans moving forward and expanding civilization to different planets and galaxies. Unfortunately, I don't see this happening in the near future.

I also discuss the latest Starship launch, which saw a fascinating display of engineering and technology converge to a rocket being caught in the air. I go on to discuss the upcoming test of Starship and what this means for our future plans to advance to Mars and beyond.

Finally, I discuss the Europa Clipper mission from NASA. Why is it important to venture out to a moon that orbits Jupiter? It is because there may be signs of life on this moon. If not now, maybe there once was. Either way, it is a question worth getting the answer to.
