Never forget that at 3:34 AM on March 2, 2025, Firefly’s Blue Ghost lunar lander touched down on the moon’s surface. It’s the second time a private company achieved a soft lunar landing, indicating many good things to come. The first was Odysseus from Intuitive Machines almost a year ago. I know several people at Firefly and know how significant their company is growing in the right direction, and this landing was an important historical marker showing that a smaller commercial company can pull off something like this in a partnership with NASA. It would take NASA decades to do these launches, and now we see these private companies in a profoundly competitive undertaking, and they are doing so successfully. There will be many more good things to come from Firefly, which is very exciting, and this goes along with what I have been saying about space. This landing occurred one day before SpaceX sent Starship 8 into space, and just ahead of Blue Origin, a ship full of women, like celebrity Katy Perry, going into space as if it were just another day at the office. Space is becoming routine, which is what we want to see happen. And the moon has needed much more attention than it has received; we should have never stopped going. I don’t care if aliens were on the moon to scare off Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong, pushing us never to return. NASA moved into the Space Shuttle program after the Apollo missions, but we have never since the early 70s dared to return to the moon. Now, we have private companies doing the job that governments were too slow to do themselves. And it’s all very exciting. Firefly is a great new company, and it will play a significant role in the expansion of a space economy that I have been talking about for quite some time now.
And while discussing it, I’ll make a few predictions. Just as Elon Musk is pushing for humanity to get into space and settle on Mars, to ensure that humans survive, I would dare say that this isn’t the first time our species has encountered this problem. I think we will find that the relics on Mars are from our history and that our move to Earth was for many of the same reasons that we want to now return to Mars. Not to discover it for the first time but to return there and complete a story that began for us many thousands of years ago. Elon Musk is simply fulfilling the hard-wired desires that are built into human consciousness to ensure the continuation of the species, in the same way a sperm knows to penetrate the egg within a woman. We must penetrate space to move our species as a thinking consciousness into the universe, as we were meant to. On earth as it is in Heaven. We are meant to ascend into Heaven, to the kingdoms we know from our past, which are in the sky. Mark it on your calendar and remember who told you all this. Once we move into space and start checking things out, that’s when we are going to learn about ourselves. The proof is coming. I would say that it is all around us, hidden behind our institutionalized history. But that won’t last very long; the evidence is abundant and will be confirmed with a space economy. I could go into quite a long discussion about hidden lifeforms behind a curtain of Dark Matter made of neutrinos and cold fusion. But let’s save that for other times. Instead, let’s talk about the excitement of this growing economy brought to us by commercial-driven space utilization.
At a recent Vivek Ramaswamy governor announcement event at CTL Aerospace, I must have had more than 100 people ask me why I love aerospace. And I tell them that the future is there. It’s been like panning for gold in a little mountain stream during the Gold Rush. I get a lot of offers to make a lot of money doing many things, especially in communications. But I like to stay close to where the gold is, and I like knowing people like the cool cats at Firefly and other companies. I get very excited every time SpaceX puts up a new rocket. From all I know about history and science, I see aerospace as the ultimate gold nugget, and I’ve been committed to it for over four decades. To use a Western metaphor, I’d rather dig for gold in aerospace than sit in a comfortable job in town as a lawyer or communications expert. It’s not the money that excites me; the growth of human intellect and what adventure can bring us is the ultimate treasure. But that doesn’t mean that money doesn’t matter. But on a scale that I think is better than just some average well-paying job. The growth of the space economy will far outpace any technical time humans have ever experienced, whether it be steamships, early airplanes, trains, or automobiles. The space economy will likely contribute hundreds of trillions of dollars to the first to utilize it. And that, to me, is the best of the big gold nuggets. But this time we should have learned some critical lessons, to keep the Marxists out of this business, as they dramatically crippled every modern industry that humans have invented. The Firefly launch is more vital than past attempts when Trump is in office and cheerleading on all these efforts. So, the resolution rate is much higher than at any other time in history.
I watched Brit Hume on Fox News the other night stumble around perplexed about how Trump thinks he will go into all these tariff wars, cut taxes, and still expand the economy. As everyone was, he spoke about an economy that they think has seen the climax of its days and that all government management has to be wrapped around managing those fixed assets. But that’s not where Trump is as he is facing down what we all are, a 36 trillion dollar deficit that is out of control. If you want to fix that without touching the Social Security and Medicare concept, something dramatic has to happen. And as I have been pointing out, it’s in this space economy. With Firefly putting their lunar module on the moon after a drought of 50 years, a half a century. Our economy has been held back by a lot of Marxist parasites who moved into administrative positions at NASA and the Pentagon and held back human civilization in a very catastrophic way. However, the more private people have grown more powerful, and the more that government has lost it, the more companies like SpaceX and Firefly have grown and are now doing the big things. And that is where the future treasures are. And that is the only kind of treasure I care about in the long line of treasures in any economy. The best to my mind is in space, and the adventures to come. And when I see scrappy companies like Firefly have success, I am more than happy for them. These are fascinating times!
