Interviewer: Hi everybody! Welcome to SATELLITE 2020. [applause] Sorry we got off to a late start, DC traffic is a killer. But my name is Jeffery Hill. I'm the conference chair, and I'm here with Elon Musk, Chief Engineer and Founder of SpaceX. Elon, thank you so much for being with us.
Elon: Thanks. Thanks for having me. I guess it was eleven years ago that we met.

Elon Musk: When we started out, I thought the whole company just had a ten percent chance of success of surviving at all. So I find it quite [inaudible] and a great honor to be working with NASA to restore spaceflight, orbital spaceflight to America.
Q1: Did you pitch to the Air Force Starship, and do you plan on pitching it out to NASA for the lunar lander system?

Bridenstine: So the Gateway represents... When we think about the architecture, we know what reusable rockets have done for the United States of America and for our access to space. And those reusable rockets are available because we have done things like Commercial Crew, Commercial Re-Supply, the the EELV program for the Air Force. These capabilities have really enabled, or these, I should say, business models have enabled innovation: where you've got providers competing on innovation and on cost. So because of these capabilities, we have more access to space than ever before and reusability of rockets is a big piece of that. Well, we want the entire architecture between the Earth and the moon to be reusable. So we want reusable launch. We want reusable tugs between Earth orbit and lunar orbit. And we want the Gateway to be in that Near-Rectilinear Halo Orbit where it requires very little propulsion to maintain that orbit. We want to be there for a very long period o

James Gleeson, SpaceX PR: Quick thank you to everyone for joining us on today's call. We're just a little over two hours from the launch of the Bangabandhu satellite's mission and the first flight of Falcon 9 Block 5. We have about 30 minutes for today's call to discuss the upgrades made to the Falcon 9 launch vehicle, and we'd like to get through as many of your questions as possible in that time. So to keep the conversation flowing, please limit your
