Everyday Astronaut
Description
Rocket science. A term we all use to describe something incredibly difficult. Trying to grasp all of the concepts involved in rocket science can be incredibly intimidating.
My name’s Tim Dodd but I'm better known as the Everyday Astronaut. Recently I fell head over heels in love with spaceflight. My appreciation and curiosity for the subject grew into an obsession. Before you knew it, all I wanted to do was learn more and more... the more I learned, the more I wanted to share what was making me so excited.
But as someone who dropped out of college and has no technical background or degree… I really felt unqualified for the job of explaining rocket science to anyone. But the fact of the matter is, if I can learn this stuff, anyone can.
Rocket science is awesome, and you don’t need to be a rocket scientist to be excited.
Everyday Astronaut. Bringing space down to Earth for everyday people.

22:14 Elonis so humble. Always takes time to explain, without acting superior I love him

I know Elon’s always “very” optimistic about timelines but at least he and his team is always moving forward and not hiding behind closed doors. This type of access is unheard of and we have no idea how lucky we are specially to the future engineers out there.

It's funny how Tim tries to coax Elon along to get further into the building and be able to get nice shots, while Elon wants to stop every meter and just talk about rockets

China probably has a roomful of engineers listening to this with note pads in hand.

overlap them like shingles/dragonscales. Gives the full coverage of the underneath, and then also gives the tiles plenty of room to expand or contract 15:09

Elon casually walking though his starship factory and whistling Tchaikovsky is the best part about this whole thing
