[00:35:09] S3: So as one of the fastest growing unicorns in YC history, and to do it as a hardware company, do you have any closing thoughts for people who are, you know, looking at space, looking at hard tech as a thing that they wanna work on? Like, you know, what have you learned, and what would you tell the, you know, just starting out version of yourself based on where you're at now? [00:35:28] S0: Yeah. I mean, I think there's just huge opportunities now coming in with space. We're really at the, like, very early innings with what's gonna be this enormous industry in space. You know, the amount of capacity and launch that's gonna come online in the next five years is is really mind boggling. So, yeah, I would definitely encourage people to to step into that. In terms of advice, like, the the YC advice stands true. It's technical talent and founding team is the thing you need to solve for first, and then everything else follows from there. [00:35:57] S3: Philip, thanks so much for coming on the Lightcone. [00:35:59] S0: Yeah. Thanks so much for having me. [00:36:00] S4: Nice being here.
