After two days of basically not sleeping and Maris, my co-founder, who has wear a technical hand, he was devastated. He was probably the most devastated after 11 months of just marathon sprinting. A guy walks past the IT guy with a T-shirt, it says, did you try switching it off and out again? It's like, oh, yeah, that's the way we can do it. So we call it Houston and said, hey, switch it off and on again, maybe two or three times. And it turns out the Wi-Fi driver of the space station was not updated and had the problem doing the update. So it's a trillion-dollar space infrastructure, and they forgot to update, yeah, a flippin Wi-Fi driver.

Hi, and welcome to the new space vision podcast sponsored by Life here where we chat about new space technology, finance and innovation with executives, founders and more exciting people from the startup and new space ecosystem.

I'm Daniel Seid.

And I'm Sam Shriver.

And together we are the founders of the Earth Observation Company, LiveEO, and New Space Vision.

Today's guest is Max Goulder, our friend and CEO of Consular.

Backed by an impressive array of investors, Kansela is planning

a sophisticated constellation of thermal microsets with incredible high resolution to optimize

water usage in the agricultural sector. And these satellites, of course, are supported by Kansela's own

data platform. And we're very excited to hear more about that. But first, welcome Max.

Hey, welcome, Sven.

Welcome, Daniel.

Thanks so much for having me here.

And I was sure if I'm invited because I'm executive or just an interesting news space person.

Hopefully, interesting new space person.

Both.

And actually, in the background of this podcast, I'm really happy that we're sitting together right now

because we tried at multiple times, like three times, and always was something coming in between. So really good that we're sitting together now. I shouldn't mention my calendar. I'm sorry for that. All good. I just came into the office two minutes prior to the podcast starting because I was at the other event. But that's the different stories. Before we talk about Konsla, obviously we know one another since quite a few years now.

But on your LinkedIn profile, it says that you started out your career as a physicist.

So can you tell us what brought you to the new space industry and what have you been doing

before running the show at Kanselaar?

Yes.
