Greetings!
1. Sir, I watched the documentary "Black Sky: The Race For Space". In that you said something I will never forget, "Research should be defined as doing something where half of the people think its impossible and the other half who think, hmm, maybe it will work" and " ... so a true creative researcher has to have confidence in Nonsense! " . For most of my engineering days I have lived off this thought, but its not easy. Can you tell us, how do you overcome the negativity, destructive criticism, and de-motivation you would receive throughout and still move on and finish the projects?
2. Sir, How is it that your company is able to secure good funding to build so many wonderful projects?
*NOTE*
For the interested watch this awesome discovery documentary "Black Space"
YouTube - Black Sky The Race For Space - SpaceShipOne (Part-1)!!!
He truly is a crazy engineer! He says it himself
How many of you knew that he and his company was the FIRST EVER PRIVATE VENTURE INTO SPACE. This has been done by only 3 other powerful governments and just 2 aircrafts before them, the space craft (discovery/colubus etc and all other missions by NASA) and one fighter jet! In the above documentary it is shown how they with just millions (not billions that go into gov funded projects) they made an aircraft which can carry a person into space.
