Elon Musk: “People are mistaken when they think that technology just automatically improves. It does not automatically improve. It only improves if a lot of people work very hard to make it better. If you look at the progress in space, in 1969, we're able to send somebody to...

AI probably makes this even easier to forget. When the pace of progress is this fast, it starts to feel inevitable. But every breakthrough still comes down to people deciding a problem is worth solving and relentlessly pushing it forward.

This is such an important reminder. Progress takes real effort and dedication, not just time.

Correct Elon .It does not, and can bring repression !you said the right thing no question But you know the evil is working feverishly in the heart of authoritarianism using technology. Nazis &;Communist can use technology to further enslave humanity .Plan 2025 is ongoing

Technology gets co-opted by the financial interests that benefit from it. The first addition to the big house is the wall and moat. At that point, evolution ceases and status quo becomes supreme.

If the industrial space revolution utilizes many unproven techniques that may become proven. That's when you break free of your limitations. Finally in history this time line at least. According to the Hopi there are three other advanced civilizations on Earth. They learned it from the ant people.

Technological advancements are amazing.But there are invisible things, like love. There're very important things that are invisible to the eye.We receive blessings from the universe, and it is important to reciprocate that gratitude.For Receiving more help from the universe.

Elon Musk: Technology only improves if smart people work like crazy to make it better. “I had simply come to the conclusion that if something didn't happen to improve rocket technology, we'd be stuck on Earth forever. And the big aerospace companies had just had no interest in radical innovation. All they wanted to do was try to make their old technology slightly better every year. And in fact, sometimes it would actually get worse. And particularly in rockets, it's pretty bad. In 1969 we were able to go to the moon with a Saturn V and then the space shuttle could only take people to low Earth orbit. And then the space shuttle retired. I mean that trend is basically trends to zero. People sometimes think technology just automatically gets better every year, but it actually doesn't. It only gets better if smart people work like crazy to make it better. That's how any technology actually gets better. And by itself, technology, if people don't work on it actually will decline. You can look at the history of civilizations, many civilizations, and look at say ancient Egypt where they were able to build these incredible pyramids and then they found they basically forgot how to build pyramids. And then even hieroglyphics, they forgot how to read hieroglyphics. Or you look at Rome and how they're able to build these incredible roadways and aqueducts and indoor plumbing and they forgot how to do all of those things. And there are many such examples in history. So I think you should always bear in mind that, you know, entropy is not on your side.” Interview with Y Combinator, September 15, 2016

Elon Musk just exposed the one lie every modern nation tells itself. Musk: “In 1969, we were able to send somebody to the moon.” Rotary phones. Computers the size of rooms. Slide rules. We put a human on the moon with less processing power than your watch. Musk: “Then the space shuttle retired, and the United States could take no one to orbit.” The most advanced nation in human history went from footprints on the moon to zero capability of leaving the atmosphere. That is not a funding problem. That is civilizational decay dressed up as a policy decision. Musk: “People are mistaken when they think that technology just automatically improves… it will, by itself, degrade.” That sentence should keep you up tonight. We treat progress like gravity. Like it pulls us forward whether we try or not. It is the opposite. Progress is a boulder on a hill. The second you stop pushing, it rolls back over you. And it never announces itself. Musk: “You look at great civilizations like ancient Egypt, and they were able to make the pyramids, and they forgot how to do that.” They did not run out of stone. They were not conquered. They got comfortable. And the knowledge bled out so quietly that nobody noticed until it was already gone. That is the real threat to everything we have built. Not a nuclear flash. Not an asteroid. Not some dramatic Hollywood collapse. A quiet forgetting. Every chip we fabricate. Every rocket we launch. Every data center we power. All of it held together by a thin fraction of the population working at a pace that would break most people. The moment that fraction gets tired or outnumbered by people who believe the machine runs itself, everything dissolves. And here is the part nobody wants to say out loud. We are not special. We are running the same operating system as every civilization that came before us. Comfort is the sedative. Complacency is the flatline. One generation that stops fighting is all it has ever taken. You do not lose the future in a war. You lose it in your sleep.

Elon Musk clears up the misconception people have about space being crowded: “Space is really big. It is not going to get crowded. Space is enormous. If you zoom in close to the satellite, it looks big, but if you actually look at it relative to the Earth, these satellites are so tiny that you cannot even see them. They are very, very tiny compared to Earth" We have about 10,000 Starlinks in orbit right now. We have a pretty good idea of how to operate just really large constellations and do it safely now We are the only operator that has any experience at that scale. It is a great thing that we have this background, so we know how tightly we can pack the satellites and fly them safely. That is a number one goal when we look at the constellation

Mikel Arteta’s beautiful praise to his staff and players. “That's when you have a difficult period. I think the best thing that you can do instead of talk a lot is observe. Look around you and see how people react. How they talk, how they look at you, how they judge you, what they do. Do they look at themselves, do they start to criticise other people? “Look around and you're going to learn the environment and the people that you have around you. “I cannot be prouder to work in a club with people that the only thing they could do is ask, what else can I do to help? “When you have people like this, I don't know if it's gonna take another week or two, but something good it will happen at the end because we deserve it.”

I want to believe, but there's too much evidence that not only tells me but shows me that they lied. I feel like low Earth orbit is as far as we can go... 1. The van Allen radiation belt. 2. The disgusted, unexciting, ashamed post moon landing conference with the three astronauts. Their body language, mannerisms, and answers scream that they're lying. 3. The lack of noise of the jet engines in the "videos." 4. How did they get the lunar rover on the spaceship? 5. No craters or dust underneath the spaceship. 6. How did the film the spaceship take off perfectly if nobody was left on the moon to operate the camera, and how was it so perfect if there was a delay? 7. The rockets and the spaceship look like a model. 8. The video of them saying that they are 130,000 miles away from Earth when all they really did was cover up the windows when they are in low earth orbit and film a small portion of Earth from low Earth orbit to simulate that they were far away, but then you find out that they're only in low Earth orbit when they uncover the windows. (Shown in the video below) 9. How we have to redesign the space suits to be able to handle the atmosphere on the moon. 10. The lack of talk and missions to the moon ever since. 11. The numerous blacked out photos from NASA. 12. How an older smartphone has way more technology than the entire spaceship back in 1969, and how we were able to even communicate with them in the spaceship as the one astronaut who passed away before the moon launch specified that they had trouble communicating between buildings and the shuttle on the ground. 13. Not one single astronaut would put their hand on the Bible and say they went to the moon. Why? 14. All the CGI and bubbles caught on NASA videos. 15. All the green screen captures and astronauts on wires in the "shuttle" and on the "ISS." There are so many bloopers and outtakes of astronauts and shuttle hatches malfunctioning, people appearing in the background of videos of the shuttle, people fading in and out, I could go on forever... How would you convince me against the evidence or prove me wrong from the arguments that I have provided?

Elon Musk on how he initially got into space: “I didn't understand why NASA had nothing about people going to Mars.” “The space stuff actually came from a conversation Adeo [Ressi] and I had. Adeo asked me, what am I doing after PayPal? I said I thought maybe there'd be something philanthropic that could be done in space that would get the public more excited about space travel, in particular sending people to Mars. I said, I'm sure NASA's got that covered. So, I'll go look on the NASA website for when are we going to Mars? Because, of course, it should be on the website: We're going to Mars in this year, and this is how we're going to do it. But there was nothing. Nothing at all about people going to Mars. I was like, I just don't understand why there's nothing about people going to Mars. Because if you look at the literature in the 1970s, it was all about, we went to the moon, now we're going to go to Mars. And so, what happened? There was the Space Shuttle, and the Space Shuttle turned out to be a really big mistake. It could barely get to Low Earth Orbit. Forget about the moon or Mars or anything like that. So, I thought, maybe I can do something that's going to get the public excited about Mars, and that will generate congressional support, which will turn into funding for NASA to go do this.” Churchill Club, April 7, 2009

ELON MUSK: “The way to expand compute is really in space. There’s a lot of room in space. And if you look at the size of Earth relative to the Sun or relative to the Solar System, you realize just how tiny it is. We’re very, very tiny. We only receive about half a billionth of the Sun’s energy. So you can really think of Earth as being like a tiny dust mote in a vast darkness. So the way to expand compute without, you know, using up all the land on Earth is to do so in space. And then you can do it without using space for power and water on Earth; you can just do it in space. So I think we’ll probably be launching our first AI satellites next year, and then we’ll be able to do that, I think, at large scale in about two years.”

Elon Musk described the one lie every dying civilization tells itself. Musk: “People are mistaken when they think that technology just automatically improves. It does not automatically improve. It only improves if a lot of people work very hard to make it better.” It doesn’t plateau. It doesn’t stall. Musk: “And actually it will, I think, by itself degrade.” Degrade. The universe does not trend toward progress. It trends toward disorder. Every advancement in history has been a temporary act of defiance against a reality that defaults to dust. In 1969 we put a human on the Moon. By 2011 the United States couldn’t put a single human in orbit. Musk: “The trend is like, down to nothing.” That is not a funding gap. That is not a political failure. That is a civilizational confession. We didn’t lose the technology. We lost the will to maintain it. The Romans engineered aqueducts that moved fresh water across an empire. After Rome fell, Europeans drank from rivers for a thousand years. The knowledge survived. The will to use it didn’t. Progress is not a ratchet. It does not lock into place once you reach it. It is a rope being dragged uphill. And the moment you stop pulling, it slides back down without making a sound. Every generation inherits what the last one built and assumes it’s permanent. Every collapsed civilization believed the exact same thing. Musk saw this while the rest of the world was still coasting on momentum it mistook for direction. That’s why SpaceX exists. Not for spectacle. Not for prestige. Because the window closes. Musk: “Being a spacefaring civilization is definitely not inevitable.” The cruelest paradox in human history. The more successful a civilization becomes, the more its people assume success is the natural state of things. That assumption is the first stage of collapse. The peak and the decline are indistinguishable from the inside. No one feels it turn. Forward is not a direction the universe owes you. It is a direction that costs everything. And it disappears the moment you take it for granted. The most dangerous sentence in human history was never a declaration of war. It was “someone else will figure it out.” That is how civilizations talk about the future right before they stop having one.

🔊 Elon Musk did a live phone interview earlier today with a guest host of the Sean Hannity radio program, discussing his latest SpaceX timelines. I only caught about the last 5 minutes of it: “The best way to expand compute is really in space. There’s a lot of room in space and if you look at the size of Earth relative to the sun or relative to the solar system, you realize just how tiny Earth is. We’re very, very tiny. We only receive about half a billionth of The Sun’s energy. So if you really think of Earth as being like a tiny dust mote in a vast darkness. So the way to expand compute— without, ya know, using up all the land on Earth— is to do so in space. And then you can do it without using up space for power & water on Earth. You can just do it in space, so… I think we will probably be launching our first AI satellites next year and then we will probably be able to do that, I think, at large scale in about two years. Yeah, well, I’ve always had the philosophy that everyone at the company should receive stock in the company so that they can participate in the upside of the company and it’s great for aligning incentives as well, so as the company prospers, then the people at the company— the employees — also prosper, so that’s just been, ya know, my philosophy from Day 1 is just to make sure everyone gets stock in the company, so there are, I think, several thousand people who’ve been – it’s not just one welder – it’s several thousand people who were, you know, working on the production line and started at the company relatively early… then probably their stock is worth over $1 million at this point “Yeah, so, Mars is much harder to get to than the moon and you can only travel to Mars roughly every two years. So Earth and Mars align such that you can travel to Mars only once every 26 months. So that makes it a lot harder than the moon where you can go to the moon pretty much anytime and it only takes a few days to get to the moon whereas it takes about six months to get to Mars. So that’s why we can do the moon faster than we can do Mars. But I think, probably, if things go well, we can probably send the first people to Mars in about five years, and then rapidly increase the cadence of sending people to Mars thereafter, so every two years we could dramatically increase the number of ships going to Mars and, ya know, hopefully in a 10 or 12 year timeframe we’ve sent thousands of people to Mars.”

🔊 Elon Musk did a live phone interview earlier today with a guest host of the Sean Hannity radio program, discussing his latest SpaceX timelines. I only caught about the last 5 minutes of it: “The best way to expand compute is really in space. There’s a lot of room in space and if you look at the size of Earth relative to the sun or relative to the solar system, you realize just how tiny Earth is. We’re very, very tiny. We only receive about half a billionth of The Sun’s energy. So if you really think of Earth as being like a tiny dust mote in a vast darkness.
