  • As president and COO of SpaceX, Gwynne Shotwell is responsible for the company's day-to-day operations, as well as managing all customer and strategic relations needed to support company growth. She joined SpaceX in 2002 as vice president of business development and built the Falcon vehicle family manifest to more than 50 launches, representing over $5 billion in revenue. Previously, she worked at the Aerospace Corporation and at Microcosm's Space Systems Division.
    Shotwell has authored dozens of papers on a variety of subjects, including standardizing spacecraft/payload interfaces, conceptual small spacecraft design, infrared signature target modeling, space shuttle integration, and reentry vehicle operational risks. In recognition of her work, she received the 2011 World Technology Award for Individual Achievement in Space and was inducted into Women In Technology International Hall of Fame in 2012. Earlier this year, she was elected as a Fellow to the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

    14:00 "So we're 5-for-5 testing on this Grasshopper. But, but that means we're not pushing hard enough. We've got to tunnel one of those vehicle into the ground by trying something really hard. We haven't done that yet. So now our challenge to our test team is you've got to push hard enough that we're going to see something happen. A spectacular video."--Gwynne Shotwell, June 2013.

Always take your fibre directly from the exchange to the the dwelling be that a house or business ! I live in australia where we were to get Fibre optics right to the house but our government in all there wisdom thought they could save dollars by incorporating a node thus cutting the fibre just feet from your premises and using the old copper system from the node !" It does not work "prior to the node the speed is 100/40 at the house after the node it turns to 30/20 a loss of 70%

    The first time i saw Mrs Shotwell and listen to her i know Spacex are at a place where they value the input of a great lady. Am truly trilled just listening to her, that’s really my vision of a strong woman. For the most part i find it difficult to listen to women speakers because they mostly stray from the points of real motivational topics which are able to improve the audience abilities to grasp the idea of the speakers and prolonged the speech so it becomes boring and the point lost somewhere in the speech. Love ❤️ you great lady 🌹🌹🌹🙏🌗🌎👍👌🏽🌼🌸
