Universe has begun pull-through testing, I believe it's called.
Kenny?
Yes.
We've seen the vehicle on the track, and obviously that's where they, they, they pull it through, and it's not, it's not full testing, but it's where they begin the, the testing phase, I would say.
Uh, pretty exciting.
Oh, yeah.
That's huge.
Like, this is a sign that we are very, very close to seeing full vehicle testing.
It's got the little envelope thing on it where, you know, just sees how far out it can reach.
So hopefully it doesn't crash into anything and have to be rebuilt from scratch.
Um, but yeah, I think this is a good sign.
Yeah.
And-
How are you feeling about this, Jay?
Yeah, it l- it looks cool.

Not that I've seen.
No.

Probably by the time this episode comes out, [laughs] we'll have seen those probably.
