1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:07,500 Welcome back to the Elon Musk podcast. 2 00:00:07,500 --> 00:00:11,300 And in today's episode, we'll be discussing two major news 3 00:00:11,300 --> 00:00:15,400 stories related to the worlds of space and transportation. 4 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:18,500 First, we'll talk about the national highway traffic safety 5 00:00:18,500 --> 00:00:22,100 administration. Turning up the heat on Tesla is 6 00:00:22,100 --> 00:00:25,700 they investigate multiple instances of Tesla's crashing 7 00:00:25,700 --> 00:00:29,300 into parked emergency vehicles while using the automaker's 8 00:00:29,300 --> 00:00:30,900 autopilot. Le system. 9 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:35,300 Now the agency has launched a special crash investigation team 10 00:00:35,500 --> 00:00:39,900 to probe a fatal crash involving a Tesla Model S suspected of 11 00:00:39,900 --> 00:00:43,300 using an automated driving system when it ran into a parked 12 00:00:43,300 --> 00:00:46,300 fire truck in California. The investigation will look into 13 00:00:46,300 --> 00:00:50,000 how the autopilot system detects in response to emergency 14 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,800 vehicles, parked on highways. Next, we'll be discussing 15 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:58,800 relativity spaces preparation to launch the world's first 3D 16 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,000 printed rocket. The Terran one, the rocket 17 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,100 designed by Tim O's, who's the CEO and co-founder of relatively 18 00:01:06,100 --> 00:01:10,300 space and a former engineer at Jeff Bezos has space startup 19 00:01:10,300 --> 00:01:16,600 blue origin stands, 110 feet high and 7.5 feet wide and will 20 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:21,000 be the largest 3D printed object to reach orbit. 21 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,100 If successful and the rocket will use nine engines to boost 22 00:01:25,100 --> 00:01:28,300 it off the ground and be able to carry a payload to low earth, 23 00:01:28,300 --> 00:01:31,700 orbit of about 2000. Hundred pounds Ellis hopes to 24 00:01:31,700 --> 00:01:34,400 disrupt, the rocket manufacturing industry, by 25 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,600 putting metal 3D printers at the core of the manufacturing 26 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:42,900 process and take on his former boss, Jeff Bezos and Elon musk's 27 00:01:42,900 --> 00:01:46,100 SpaceX. Stay tuned as we dive a little 28 00:01:46,100 --> 00:01:48,800 bit deeper into these stories and their implications for the 29 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,700 future of transportation and space exploration. 30 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,400 Relativity space is a company known for its ambition to 31 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,400 revolutionize rocket manufacturing and it's preparing 32 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,000 to launch the world's first 3D printed rocket. 33 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,900 The Terran one, the rocket is expected to lift off from Cape 34 00:02:05,900 --> 00:02:08,199 Canaveral. And if successful, it will 35 00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:12,500 become the largest 3D printed object to reach orbital flight. 36 00:02:12,500 --> 00:02:15,600 Velocities Terran one is the brainchild of. 37 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,200 Tim Ellis, a former engineer at Jeff Bezos. 38 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,600 Is startup blue origin in the rocket is relativity space. 39 00:02:22,900 --> 00:02:27,000 First functional model in. It's also the world's first 3D 40 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,500 printed rocket, the rocket is 110 feet, high, seven and a half 41 00:02:31,500 --> 00:02:34,300 feet wide and what use nine engines to boost it off the 42 00:02:34,300 --> 00:02:38,200 ground, it will be able to carry a payload to low earth orbit of 43 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:43,800 around 2,800. Lb, Ellis is CEO and co-founder 44 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:49,300 of Relativity space wants to take on Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk 45 00:02:49,300 --> 00:02:52,300 and disrupt the rocket manufacturing industry. 46 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,200 He plans to achieve this by putting metal 3D printers at the 47 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,500 core of the manufacturing process. 48 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,100 Now, Ellis believes that 3D printing will allow his company 49 00:03:03,100 --> 00:03:06,000 to build Rockets much more quickly than traditional, 50 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,000 manufacturing methods and the company's printers can put 51 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,400 together a rocket in just 60 days competitors. 52 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,100 On the other hand will take between one and two years to 53 00:03:16,100 --> 00:03:18,400 build a rocket. According to the company's 54 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:23,500 website, now SpaceX is Starship can be built with A few months 55 00:03:23,500 --> 00:03:27,100 as well. So relativity, space and Space X 56 00:03:27,100 --> 00:03:31,300 is Starship are neck and neck. As far as speed goes now, the 57 00:03:31,300 --> 00:03:35,000 printer is used by relativity. Space are not just fast, but 58 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:41,500 also flexible and smart, they use capable learning Ai and 59 00:03:41,500 --> 00:03:45,600 algorithms and they learn from their mistakes and collect data 60 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,000 during printing to improve their future. 61 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:52,300 Prince relativity space is even developed its own aluminum 62 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,300 alloy. Boy for use in 3D printing the 63 00:03:55,300 --> 00:03:57,500 company's rocket engines called a on. 64 00:03:57,700 --> 00:04:02,900 A e0n are also 3D printed and these engines use a mix of 65 00:04:02,900 --> 00:04:07,100 liquid oxygen and liquid methane to propel themselves forward and 66 00:04:07,100 --> 00:04:11,800 Taryn, one has nine a on one engines powered through its 67 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,000 second stage. Now helices is race to Mars is 68 00:04:15,300 --> 00:04:18,700 more of a collaboration than a competition with SpaceX. 69 00:04:18,700 --> 00:04:21,800 He believes that both companies can work together to achieve 70 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,600 their goals in Relativity space. That goal is to print a rocket 71 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,800 on Mars using its printers, the company believes that it's 72 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,600 printers can be used to build an industrial base on Mars in the 73 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,200 3D printing will play a critical role in establishing a permanent 74 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:41,500 presence on the planet. Now this tear in one launch, 75 00:04:41,500 --> 00:04:45,700 it's just a step forward for Ellis is real goal to build a 76 00:04:45,700 --> 00:04:49,100 much bigger rocket called tearing our and the rocket will 77 00:04:49,100 --> 00:04:54,900 almost be entirely 3D printed and will be e, 100% reusable. 78 00:04:55,300 --> 00:04:58,400 It should be able to carry around 20 thousand kilograms of 79 00:04:58,407 --> 00:05:00,600 payload. And is the rocket that Ellis 80 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,900 wants to send the Mars relatively space has teamed up 81 00:05:03,900 --> 00:05:07,800 with impulse space. Also founded by a former SpaceX 82 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:12,200 propulsion CTO and co-founder, Tom Mueller, to set an ambitious 83 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,600 timeline for its products. They aim to sent Aaron are to 84 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:21,100 Mars by 2024 and if successful, it would be the first ever 85 00:05:21,100 --> 00:05:26,500 commercial mission to the Planet in the may even be SpaceX to the 86 00:05:26,500 --> 00:05:30,000 pooch on this one. Ellis is confident that his 87 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,600 company can achieve its lofty. Ambitions though a Skeptics have 88 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,000 expressed doubts. About the company's ability to 89 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,500 compete with established rocket. Manufacturers, Ellis is ready to 90 00:05:39,500 --> 00:05:41,600 put his printing technology to the test. 91 00:05:42,100 --> 00:05:44,900 He believes that 3D printing is the key to stir up Ting, the 92 00:05:44,900 --> 00:05:48,200 rocket manufacturing industry and the Terran one launch is 93 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,300 just the beginning, Ellis said people are quite pumped, 94 00:05:52,300 --> 00:05:56,400 especially given, this is such a unique launch with so many first 95 00:05:57,100 --> 00:06:00,500 for not just relatively Petit. But for the industry, whatever 96 00:06:00,500 --> 00:06:02,700 the outcome is with as less and learn. 97 00:06:02,900 --> 00:06:05,900 We're going to really have very interesting. 98 00:06:08,500 --> 00:06:14,000 Times ahead and after they bring their printer to Mars, they're 99 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,800 going to start building out. A lot of the food storage water, 100 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,100 storage other industrial equipment. 101 00:06:20,300 --> 00:06:24,000 And they'll need to initially sustained kind of early seeds of 102 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,200 people there. Now relativity space is a new 103 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:32,900 space rocket company and still the company has a lot to prove. 104 00:06:33,300 --> 00:06:37,100 And as evidenced by its latest valuation, which like many other 105 00:06:37,100 --> 00:06:42,300 tech companies, Dropped by 28% from 4.2 billion dollars in 106 00:06:42,300 --> 00:06:45,700 mutual fund giant Fidelity's. Estimation in July. 107 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,300 Ellis said, I don't think anyone's chilling right now. 108 00:06:49,500 --> 00:06:52,300 It's long hours and people are working hard, but I can say 109 00:06:52,300 --> 00:06:54,900 we're not scrambling to fly. We've been ready. 110 00:06:54,900 --> 00:07:00,000 Now, for some time, Now, people are quite pumped, especially 111 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,400 given, this is such a unique launch with so many first for 112 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,700 not just relativity. But for the industry, Ellis 113 00:07:06,700 --> 00:07:11,400 said, among the first tests in this launch, which is dubbed. 114 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,100 Go luck or good luck. Have fun. 115 00:07:13,100 --> 00:07:18,100 Glhf, for short is that it's the first 3D printed rocket in the 116 00:07:18,100 --> 00:07:21,000 first flight test of methane-oxygen fuel the engines. 117 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,900 Now, Ellis said, there's always a chance for surprises, 118 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,400 especially with It's you just can't test on the ground. 119 00:07:30,900 --> 00:07:33,400 I believe. If anyone has a shot to do this 120 00:07:33,900 --> 00:07:35,700 we certainly have a chance, whatever. 121 00:07:35,700 --> 00:07:39,900 The outcome with this lesson learned, we're going to really 122 00:07:39,900 --> 00:07:44,200 have very strong momentum. Going into Taryn are now 123 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:49,300 relativity. Space is a new space company but 124 00:07:49,300 --> 00:07:54,400 SpaceX has been around for a while and so has Tesla. 125 00:07:54,700 --> 00:07:56,800 Now we're going to get it a Tesla in a little bit but I want 126 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,500 to You about the people that helped us here and keep our 127 00:08:00,500 --> 00:08:05,500 lights on basically Starship shirts.com, if you're a space 128 00:08:05,500 --> 00:08:09,300 enthusiasts, if you're a tech Enthusiast, if you're an Elon 129 00:08:09,300 --> 00:08:13,700 Musk done, go to Starship shirts.com, that Starship 130 00:08:13,700 --> 00:08:18,100 shirts.com, where you can get all the merch t-shirts, hats 131 00:08:18,300 --> 00:08:22,500 stickers, everything related to Elon Musk companies, Tesla 132 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,800 SpaceX, NASA space themes, turn shirts as well. 133 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,600 So, please take a second and check them out. 134 00:08:29,700 --> 00:08:35,600 Now let's talk about some Tesla and nhtsa news. 135 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,299 That's a national highway, traffic, safety administration, 136 00:08:39,700 --> 00:08:44,400 and they're launching an investigation into Tesla and 137 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,600 this is for a fatal crash involving a Tesla Model S and a 138 00:08:47,608 --> 00:08:51,700 fire truck from the Contra Costa County, Fire Department in 139 00:08:51,700 --> 00:08:54,600 California. The agency is also investigating 140 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:58,900 the autopilot system of people Tesla's crashing into parking 141 00:08:59,100 --> 00:09:03,500 emergency vehicles, which has led to 14 incidents Nationwide. 142 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,200 The nhtsa is investigating how the autopilot system detects, 143 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,300 and response to emergency vehicles, parked on the highways 144 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:16,200 and the driver of a 2014. Tesla Model S was killed in the 145 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,800 crash and a passenger was critically injured for 146 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,500 firefighters. Were treated for minor injuries, 147 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,200 injuries and the 1.4 million dollar ladder. 148 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:30,600 Work was damaged as well. Moreover nhtsa is also 149 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,000 investigating steering wheels that can detach from the 150 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,200 steering column on as many as to 120,000 model. 151 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:42,100 Why SUVs the agency received two complaints in which 2023 model 152 00:09:42,100 --> 00:09:45,200 wise, were delivered to customers with a missing bolt. 153 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:46,900 Holding the wheel to the steering column. 154 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,600 The agency says in documents posted on his website that both 155 00:09:50,700 --> 00:09:54,500 instances happened, when the SUV's had low mileage on them 156 00:09:54,900 --> 00:09:58,700 and in one complaint filed by By the nhtsa in owner said, he was 157 00:09:58,700 --> 00:10:02,100 driving with his family. In Woodbridge, New Jersey, when 158 00:10:02,100 --> 00:10:06,800 the steering wheel suddenly came off on January 29th, five days 159 00:10:06,900 --> 00:10:09,400 after the vehicle had been purchased. 160 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,300 Now, the nhtsa has been more aggressive in pursuing safety 161 00:10:13,300 --> 00:10:15,700 problems with Tesla's in the past year. 162 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,600 And now it's a multiple recalls and investigations. 163 00:10:18,900 --> 00:10:21,800 And the agency is opened investigations into Tesla's 164 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,900 breaking suddenly for no reason, suspension problems and other 165 00:10:25,900 --> 00:10:29,100 issues. With a vehicles in in February, 166 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,600 the nhtsa pressure, Tesla into recalling nearly three hundred 167 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:38,200 and sixty three thousand vehicles with full self-driving 168 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,500 software because the system can break traffic laws. 169 00:10:42,100 --> 00:10:46,800 The US Department of Justice has also asked Tesla for documents 170 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:51,100 about full self driving and autopilot. 171 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,100 Now test the says, in its owner manual, the neither autopilot 172 00:10:55,100 --> 00:10:58,600 nor full self driving You can drive themselves in the owners 173 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:03,400 must be ready to intervene at all times in nhtsa has sent 174 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:08,400 investigators to 35 Tesla crashes, which they think that 175 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:12,100 the automated systems are suspected of being used. 19 176 00:11:12,100 --> 00:11:14,800 people have died including two motorcyclists. 177 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:22,500 Now, the system is being tested by 400,000 Tesla owners on 178 00:11:22,500 --> 00:11:27,200 public roads.
