The Pentagon Just Validated Our Bet
On Monday at SpaceX headquarters, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stood next to Elon Musk and flashed a Vulcan salute.
His words: “We want to make Star Trek real.”
Hegseth/Musk at SpaceX pledge to make STAR TREK Real
Consider who’s saying that. The man overseeing a proposed $1.5 trillion defense budget.
Space Force just awarded SpaceX $739 million in launch orders.
The administration is framing technological innovation as a wartime priority.
And the Pentagon is publicly acknowledging a space race with China.
The timing is hard to ignore.
WHY WE’RE PAYING ATTENTION
We started developing Space Samurai: Oasis
years ago.
A story set in 2063, built around a space station and the technologies that will define how humans live beyond Earth.
At the time, space felt niche to most people. Now it’s a matter of national security.
What’s happening in Washington this week tracks with conversations we’ve been having for years.
The policy world is catching up to what the space industry has known for a while.
THE WINDOW
Every so often, culture and policy move in the same direction at the same time.
That seems to be happening now.Principal Photography (Shooting) begins Spring 2026.
WHAT’S NEXT
Stay tuned for more updates.
