Today's video is uploaded and ready to go live, but it has been hit with an automated copyright strike that takes the revenue on the video, for music we legally licensed. We have to wait for that dispute to resolve, but in the meantime the video is up on Nebula.
I prefer to not interrupt my videos with mid-roll sponsorships whenever possible. We invest a lot of money into production and stopping in the middle of the video to plug something just feels counter-productive. This comes with some cons though, especially when we place them at the end of a 45 minute long documentary.
Even the most interesting videos on YouTube experience a continual drop in viewers over the course of the video. In our last video only about 30% of the people who originally clicked on the video made it to the end. So vastly less people see the sponsorship. This obviously results in a better viewing experience though.
I explain all this, because we announced a project I am really excited about at the very end of the Hermeus documentary. A project I have spent the last 6 months ideating.
The idea started early last year when Helion told us they hired a specialized Nuclear Engineer because of our video.
I am incredibly proud that this channel can help my audience find fulfilling careers and help companies develop innovative new technologies. That was the original mission of this channel. To put the spotlight on engineering as one of the coolest careers in world. So, I want to double down on that mission with Propeller (startpropeller.com)

It looks like the NTSB has found the cause of the Alaska Airlines 737 Max door plug blowout. The bolts holding it in place were removed in Boeing's factory to perform riveting work and were never reinstalled.
I'll be taking part at Everyday Astronaut's Astro Awards this weekend in Austin, Texas. Should be a fun night with people from all over the space industry being celebrated.
