Our modern way of life requires more resources than ever before — resources that are becoming increasingly scarce and environmentally taxing to extract.
Intuitive Machines co-founder and CEO Steve Altemus believes a solution to this problem could be waiting in the cosmos.
This week on How I Built This Lab, Steve breaks down the logistics and economics of sending the first-ever commercial spacecraft to the moon. Plus, an overview of today’s newfound global space race, and how Steve embraces failure as part of working on hard technological problems.
This episode was produced by Carla Esteves with music by Ramtin Arablouei.
