Empowering Humanity, with Anousheh Ansari (XPRIZE)

This week’s Pathfinder podcast features the CEO of the XPRIZE Foundation, Anousheh Ansari – our first guest who’s actually been to space (it’s shocking to us too that it’s taken this long). After immigrating to the United States from Iran as a teenager, she co-founded Telecom Technologies, a telecommunication company that integrated voice and data. In 2006, she became the first first-privately funded female and Iranian-American to travel to space and the International Space Station. Catch up: The $10 million purse, sponsored by the Ansari family, set forth a competition to stimulate innovation in private spaceflight. It challenged private entities to design a reusable crewed spacecraft capable of two flights within a two-week period. In 2004, the Mojave Aerospace Ventures team's SpaceShipOne clinched the prize, catalyzing a paradigm shift in the realm of commercial spaceflight. Virgin Galactic eventually licensed the technology for its SpaceShipTwo vehicle. In addition to Anousheh’s background, we discuss: – The origins of the XPRIZE Foundation – How to focus on the right global challenge – The future of commercial spaceflight – Structuring the incentives to promote innovation – XPRIZE Wildfire And much more… • Chapters • 00:00 - Intro 01:02 - Moving from Iran to the US 07:45 - Going to space 10:09 - Becoming the first Iranian-American astronaut 13:47 - The Overview Effect 17:18 - Introduction to XPRIZE 27:28 - The XPRIZE Brain Trust 33:00 - Equity ownership at XPRIZE? 38:21 - Wildfire detection & suppression 39:45 - XPRIZE & Crowdsourcing 41:58 - How has the experience of space flight changed? 46:41 - Regulations in the commercial space flight industry 51:37 - Game changing technology for humanity 55:12 - What does Anousheh do for fun? 56:15 - Favorite sci-fi movies? 56:42 - How to get involved with the X Prize Foundation • Show notes • XPRIZE website — https://www.xprize.org/ Anousheh’s socials —   / anoushehansari   Mo's socials —   / itsmoislam   Payload’s socials —   / payloadspace   /   / payloadspace   Pathfinder archive — Watch:    / @payloadspace   Pathfinder archive — Listen: https://pod.payloadspace.com/episodes • About us • Pathfinder is brought to you by Payload, a modern space media brand built from the ground up for a new age of space exploration and commercialization.
