The Balance - Learning about Failure from 3D printing and SpaceX | TIS188


Listen Later

To start of March of 2020, we are going to discuss the Balance. The balance of life as a human being, science, and making human life interplanetary. In all three of these, failure plays a major role. When you view failure through the right lens, things can change for you.  In this episode, we discuss how I had a reminder of how failure can be viewed to make you better, if you can only separate yourself from the emotion of it. Our latest attempt at 3D printing the Mandalorian Helmet didn't have the results we wanted, but it reminded me failure is part of the journey. It's also something SpaceX has figured out as a way to develop space technology more rapidly than ever before, like the Starship and Falcon 9.
