I think that's an interesting question that remains open. It's one of the key questions our film attempts to answer. One thing I will say is that fulfillment is a very difficult challenge that is very different from the engineering challenges LiftPort is facing.

I do agree that there's a violation of trust that Michael needs to rectify with the Kickstarter. We have been following this part of the story from the very beginning of our efforts. We'd really like to interview a group of backers. Would you be interested in taking part in that?

I think the best story is one that shows LiftPort pushing through the numerous challenges they face and finishing their big experiment with a successful result. As a filmmaker, I'm just trying to find the most interesting way to tell a story about what really happens. If they have to make two attempts at the experiment, I'd say that would make for an interesting twist, but that's up to fate!

You are definitely not alone in this criticism. We want it to get a fair shake in our film. Let me know if you'd be interested in participating.

We're hoping the film is accessible to everyone! We need a way to get to and from the moon that is affordable and safe if we're going to have routine manned missions. One of the reasons we wanted to make the film was to make the case for that in a broadly appealing way.
