Yours were simple but very intelligent questions. Thank you.

Comic book - is that a tribute to Lauren Lyons? She was a fabulous educator when on the SpaceX youtube streams, and seems to be an in-demand person for getting space industry startups off the ground.

[@TheShanehiltonward]

Ellie, truly professional appearance and poise. You have upped your game in a serious manner. Everyday, interviewers end up wasting time trying to show off their own knowledge instead of allowing the interviewee to finish a sentence. You let the interviewee speak and allow them to be the focus. Excellent job.

[@ellieinspace]

Thank you so much! That means a lot! I was a professional reporter for almost a decade so I’ve been trying to emulate that more, glad you notice a change!

[@Mrbfgray]

Everyday get's to the technical like few can because of his background, having the story told without any tech has it's place too but she could 'up her game' by attempting to understand more.

[@howtheworldworks89]

You beat me to it. Was gonna say the same exact thing. My daughter and I are big fans of Ellie!

[@PiDsPagePrototypes]

@@ellieinspace That experience does show, as does the aforementioned practice of giving the interviewee time to complete an answer.

[@Tinman_56]

Tom's a very cool guy. He and his teams are doing great things for developing the space economy and exploration.

[@ellieinspace]

He’s extremely humble and smart

[@douginorlando6260]

Your Tom mueller interviews are most exciting. SpaceX nails low cost per pound payload to Low Earth Orbit. And Tom Mueller’s high ISP engines will nail transportation of payloads from LEO to beyond. Both are crucial in creating a self sustaining lunar colony economy.

[@ellieinspace]

Thank you so much! I really thought this tour was incredible!

[@JT-mr3db]

It's incredible inspiration to see someone who is so good at something that is so hard to be good at. Not to mention the humility and intellectual generosity with which he conducts himself.

[@alanhart9992]

Mueller is the KING of rockets! Great interview from Ellie.

[@ellieinspace]

He really is. More people need to know his name.

[@ross077]

Excellent exclusive tour Ellie. Tom Mueller reveals so many expert insights into modern spaceflight development in this interview, Impulse Space are sure to succeed.

[@hawkyyy42]

Tom is the best! Very smart and can explain things in a way everyday people can understand. You should definitely keep checking in with him. He will have engineered a huge portion of the future working space vehicles

[@ellieinspace]

I will do that! Great idea. Thanks for watching

[@jamesengland7461]

Thank you for your kind and generous hospitality, Tom!

[@paulrautenbach]

There seem to be a number of good (nice) people running space companies. Tom is one of them. Thanks Ellie. I learned a lot.

[@dherman0001]

Generally in engineering, the cream rises to the top.

[@cus500]

It’s got to be best interview she has done on her channel. Keep it up

[@caldodge]

Valve failure is probably one reason Impulse prefers "green" propellants over corrosive ones.

[@rickrutledge9363]

This was by far one of the best interviews I've seen you do, Ellie. Great job!

[@kuhnology8803]

Test run on the engine was cool! Thanks to the group.

[@ellieinspace]

Glad you liked it!

[@clkersting]

You're killing it with these behind-the-scenes videos, Ellie! Love seeing more.

[@ellieinspace]

Thank you for watching!!! Hopefully I get to tour Starbase next!

[@GONZOFAM7]

Bringing space tech to us regular people Ellie. Excellent interview.

[@ellieinspace]

I’m the female Tim Dodd haha

[@gerritgraafland4410]

i love Tom Mueller, so much knowledge and so down to earth, i would love to work with and for him. i was always interested in this guy for being the rocket engine mastermind of spacex, thanks for taking the time to interview this guy and getting to know him as a person.

[@musicman53]

That was a riveting interview Ellie, congratulation! Thanks for going into it so well prepared, your question were great for Tom as well as we nerds.

[@ellieinspace]

Please share if you enjoyed!! Thank you!

[@randycharland806]

I understand the need to protect the secrets regarding the development of the equipment, but it would have been so cool to actually see this equipment without blurring! You are growing in leaps and bounds in your ability to come up with one great question after another! Very grateful for your strong presence in the industry! Thanks Ellie!

[@ellieinspace]

Thank you so much! I’ve really tried to understand this subject better, glad it shows!!!

[@MarcelHuguenin]

Wow! Great tour Ellie, your really passionate 🎉

[@jameswilson5165]

Starman. Cheesy to the Max but clearly a collector's item.

[@biggertigger]

Awesome interview: just letting Tom run away with this is really interesting to watch ..

[@rudivandoornegat2371]

Wow! This was big. Elon will be so jealous that SpaceX is not one of the first factory tours on this channel.

[@rudivandoornegat2371]

This guy is so intelligent

[@vicg5323]

Tom is Cool and Ellie is wonderful! As a tech I was in for Elon and Tesla, but when it came to SpaceX I did not see the reason and thought Elon was exerting energy in a wrong direction. I am glad to be wrong! I guess that’s why I am just a smart guy and Elon is a geniuses! Tom is very fortunate to have worked with him. I can not wait to see how many brilliant motivated men and women will create new enterprises that spring from Elons initial thrust! Thank you Tom and Ellie and Ellie and Tom for the tour!

[@davidbeetham8481]

Ellie I like the way you blurred out rocket components - Because safety is paramount....

[@mophomanners]

because ITAR violations are really really bad

[@JackOHaraEngineering]

@@mophomanners”violations” like it’s not the most vague possible set of “rules” that are protecting tech that literally every single developed nation has. All itar really does is dissuade people, maybe not a bad thing. People building missiles in their yard is a little concerning.

[@douglasstrother6584]

Very cool! I drive by this place on my way to work.

[@ellieinspace]

Wow! Now you know what’s inside!! :-)

[@DavidLong-gw8gv]

Hey, Ellie. Long-time fan. Great interview on so many levels. Completely expanded my idea of what’s possible. Really meaningful. Thanks.

[@ExecutiveZombie]

Adventures of Starman…. Bravo! 🧟‍♀️

[@ellieinspace]

Really an epic comic series

[@alexbracht]

I love that you mentioned The Expanse and Tom. knew all about it !!! Yesss! Thanks for a great interview Ellie!!

[@crossroads4762]

Tom Mueller's energy is inspirational, every space nerd wants as a best friend.

[@atptourfan]

Tom is brilliant, but still so chill and patient when explaining the advanced space technology he’s developing. Definitely a dude you would want to have a beer with or go out camping under the stars.

[@tedtombling2770]

Watching these videos is a steep learning curve, but made easier by Tom keeping his explanations simple. Another great interview.

[@marchelgeson]

I really love the mix of SpaceX history mixed in with impulse space current information. It made for a nice mix and really showed off Tom's progression and knowledge. Plus you did a great job of keeping the questions a little bit technical but also a little bit informal. I can really see your personal expertise and knowledge growing and making you able to ask more informed questions.

[@stevenrofe6195]

Thank you both for getting us excited about space exploration. Great interview.

[@g.gordonwoody645]

You have such a great feel for topics. This is really important stuff. These are the fascinating schooner captains and privateers of our time! Thanks

[@pbourd]

So cool Ellie, what a superb professional tour filled with visuals and information. The one Torr vacuum test chamber at the end was sheer perfection @ 2,000 degrees, wow😮

[@i_might_be_lying]

Awesome tour! Thanks Ellie, thanks Tom!

[@c0t1]

Absolutely love your interviews with Tom Mueller! Top notch tour of Impulse Space as well. They're going places, and I look forward to watching it.

Think we need to invent the Elli in Space drinking game. We take a sip of whisky every time Elli says Wow! If you can still stand at the end of the interview you win. ... loved the interview Elli.

Super cool tour!!!

[@douginorlando6260]

Ellie … I would run this by Impulse so they can make sure Impulse is not revealing too much. Imagine the improved focus of effort any competitor would derive from this video. For example knowing to get reliability, you need to demonstrate 2000 thermal stress cycles. I love this interview so much it makes me think working for Impulse & Tom Mueller would be a dream job (even with the stress of 110% effort).

Wait, what,... Nitrous Oxide and Ethane? He's talking about chemicals that every Hot Rodder knows where to get. And while cold while compressed, they're not the cryogenic liquids Starship is using, but would easily be contained in thin walled COPV type tanks to keep the vehicle mass down. Edit: and there a few minutes later, Aluminium tanks getting Carbon Fiber wrapped,.... And while you're looking closely, the reflection in the glass shows one of the Impulse team doing a socials photos, You must be famous Ellie!!
