Future of Energy and Space Technology
Energy, the seed corn of all development, all growth, all
survival, survival, energy.
So energy, transportation, information, and manufacturing,
these are the things that change humanity, that will change world power,
and they are descending upon us in ways that are very unique.
The technology is on the engineering benches today, but most
Americans and most in Congress have not had time to really look deeply
at what's going on here.
But I've had the benefit of thirty-three years of studying and
becoming friends with these engineers and these scientists.
This technology
can be built today with technology that is not developmental
to deliver any human being from any place on planet Earth to any other place in
less than an hour,
to deliver Wi-Fi from space where you never need a cell tower to
connect,
to deliver energy from space where you never have to plug your phone in and it
trickle charges,
and you can use that energy over time.
It can be applied to cars, to houses.
The technology of Edison and Tesla that we live with in our energy
environment, our paradigm today
is expensive, it's dangerous, and it's wasteful.
Plug it into the wall, but yet that's all--
what we all do because we are used to
paradigms.
The power of space will change world power forever, and it doesn't have to be
a big country to do it. It can be a small island country,
let's say New
Zealand.
Because the technology,
if optimized, can change world power, and there's nothing you can
do if you don't have that power. The nature of power, you either have
it and your values rule, or you do not have it and
you must submit. We see that play out again and again in
history,
and it's playing out now.
But we get trapped
