In other places when your boss tells you something, people go do it.

At the skunk works when your boss tells you something, it's the start of a discussion.

This is a place where people exist beyond the bounds of possibility.

If we had known how hard it was going to be to do, we probably wouldn't have tried.

One day out of blue, he calls me up, said, hey, you want to come fly the F-117?

It's a place where risk is the norm.

Hundreds of successes don't equate to a single failure that you've experienced.

We have built vehicles that we knew we were going to crash

because we wanted to go experiment out at the very edge of the envelope.

Skunkworks is a place where history continues to inspire the future.

The first thing I would tell somebody to do is just walk outside and look up.

The sun is burning right there.

That's the example of a fusion reactor.

The effusion reactor that powers everything we see around us.

What gives energy to all of us.

Now you're thinking big. I like it.

This is Inside Skunkworks, and we'll see you back on March 11th.

Shut the recorder off a second. I'll tell you a story.
