00:00I'm Torsten Hoffmann, an award-winning filmmaker, entrepreneur and techno-optimist.

00:08I'm really into emerging technologies and how trillion-dollar industries are forming around them.

00:13Right now, the space sector is going ballistic.

00:17And trust me, it's way bigger than Musk and Bezos.

00:20There were headlines.

00:21New era, private industry is going to lead the way.

00:26No, they're not.

00:27So allow me to whirl you around the world,

00:31catapult you into orbit and hurl you through space.

00:36You ready?

00:38This space renaissance isn't just fueled by governments.

00:41Hundreds of companies are competing for fame and fortune.

00:44SpaceX were the first private company to put a satellite in orbit.

00:47We were the second.

00:48Nice.

00:49Oh my god.

00:52My mommy can be an astronaut.

00:54Meet the next generation of astronauts.

00:56The new faces of new space.

00:58So you're literally a rocket scientist?

01:00Yeah.

01:02A cubesat can be as small as this.

01:04Launching into space for, say, a hundred thousand or two hundred thousand dollars.

01:09So why is this guy spending two billion on three huge satellites?

01:13Okay, one question.

01:15Are you crazy?

01:16No.

01:16Never.

01:18Never.

01:19New constellations are filling with skies.

01:21This is creating a trillion-dollar market opportunity.

01:25And the list is really endless.

01:27Tracking climate change and tackling geopolitics.

01:31Six.

01:32I think it will change the political calculus going forward.

01:35If everyone gets to know that these things aren't going to be possible to hide anymore.

01:39Five.

01:42Dying satellites can now be saved.

01:44I deorbited dozens of spacecraft.

01:48But we don't have to do that anymore.

01:49We don't have the right to make mistakes because it would be fatal.

01:54But debris puts it all in danger.

01:56This is kind of scary to think about something like this re-entering and like

02:00maybe hitting a populated area.

02:03In our future, asteroid mining is a thing.

02:06The amount of platinum group metals out there is in the trillions of dollars.

02:10Three.

02:11Maybe someone is already building a space hotel like the one I read about as a kid.

02:16Orson, this is happening.

02:17We are building a space station.

02:19No.

02:20And we use the inedible part of the plants

02:22to feed the insects which create the substrate for the mushroom.

02:25My role and purpose is to help save the DNA of Earth and spread life to the stars.

02:30One.

02:31If the public does not see the value of this,

02:36immediately I will work to ensure that they do.

02:39Roger that.

02:41Let's meet those turning science fiction into science fact.

02:55Let's meet those.

02:57It's brilliant.
