My guest today is Daniel Metzler. Daniel is the co-founder and CEO of Isar Aerospace, a Munich-based company that develops next generation rockets for sustainable access to space.

Isar Aerospace was founded in 2018 and has been moving extremely fast since then: the debut of Spectrum, their launch vehicle, is scheduled for late 2021. That's a short three years from first design to launch.

I think of Daniel as the bridge between space and earth, both physically (since they are literally building rockets) and intellectually, because he is able to distill the complex world of space technology in a way that anyone can understand.

I was introduced to Daniel by Paul Klemm, Principal at Earlybird Ventures and I'm so glad we made this happen. In this episode we cover:

Daniel's mental model for space and Isar's origin story
the future of satellite connectivity,
the underrated possibilities of going to space,
why Europe is the perfect place (geo-politically speaking ) to work on space technology,
how the Isar team is structure to move fast on a brand new field,
and much, much more.
