Commander Tim Anderson is not only a US Naval Reserve officer with responsibilities in war planning, but is also in a defense contractor role managing ship repairs and modernization. In this interview hosted by Jason Kanigan of the Cold Star Project, Commander Anderson discusses how government and Department of Defense makes up its mind on spending, and how you can make use of that process.  

We also dig deep into the potentially great impact of SpaceX Starship on the space industry: payload variants, areas of operation, effect on industry players and more. Why? The dramatic rise in cargo capacity offered and drop in launch and transportation costs promised--even if the numbers are nowhere near as rosy as predicted.  Tim Anderson is working on his Masters in Systems Engineering, Space Systems, at Embry-Riddle Aerotnautical University. This degree will confirm the practical knowledge he has from many years in the field. He has two papers in for peer review at the time of recording.
