Thanks — this shit is definitely hard mode. But we're 3 weeks away from sending the first private spaceship to deep space, and we're doing it for orders of magnitude cheaper than anyone else before us. Fingers crossed it works.

I wish you every success. You're doing what 10 year old me in the 1980s dreamed of. I still daydream about bootstrapping in solar orbit. My amateur idea was to focus the sun onto rocks with huge mirrors at first, lasers later. Then using a handwaving/centrifugal force to separate out the elements lol. Though I wasn't smart enough to figure out what was needed to build a factory via a bunch of robots. Sorry for the rambling!
