Our latest episode leaves the grid behind—literally—to head into orbit.

As the number of satellites and spacecraft in space grows, one fundamental limitation persists: power. These systems are smaller, smarter, and more capable than ever—but they’re energy-starved. That’s where today’s guest, Andrew Rush, steps in.

Andrew is the Co-Founder and CEO of Star Catcher, a cutting-edge startup developing the first power grid for space, in space. Instead of sending energy from orbit to Earth like traditional space-based solar concepts, Star Catcher’s revolutionary tech beams energy between spacecraft, enabling new capabilities and unlocking a new era of in-space infrastructure.

Whether you're an energy engineer, a space-tech nerd, or a grid operator wondering what lessons in orbit can teach us about Earth’s energy transition, this conversation offers a fascinating peek into the future of power.
