Hiring, Culture, and Building the Right Team

AstroForge closes out 2025 with a retrospective on Odin, lessons learned, and what it means to design and build interplanetary spacecraft on tight timelines and tighter budgets. Jack, Matt, and Robin reflect on the high-stakes Odin launch, how those failures are shaping DeepSpace-2, and what’s next as the company pushes toward landing and eventually mining an asteroid. Also: viewer questions, Russian prison trivia, and a not-so-subtle dig at Elf on the Shelf.
