CredoThe Garage by Credo is a podcast about invention and innovation, exploring the minds of innovators throughout history and shining a light on the products that are transforming the world today.
Through conversations with entrepreneurs, inventors, garage tinkerers, and other passionate creators, this show will bring listeners inside the metaphorical, and oftentimes literal, garages of the world, exploring the potential for world-changing ideas that often originate from the most unlikely of places.
In this episode we are joined by Mike Grace, CEO at Longshot Space. Longshot is building a hypersonic launch system in Oakland, California. Their approach is poised to make access to space dramatically less expensive, which according to their mission, will help expand human activity in space by orders of magnitude.
Today, we’ll take a short journey back in time, to explore the origins of the modern rocket. In so doing, we’ll attempt to answer the question, “why do we go to space with rockets?”, and what does the future look like if we were to uncover a cheaper and less lethal alternative.

We're thrilled to share a behind-the-scenes look at the ExCEL Now 2024 event, hosted by DCI Next.
This incredible 2-day event brought together defense innovators from INDOPACOM units like the 3d Marine Littoral Regiment, government agencies, industry leaders, and R&D experts.
Witnessing the future battlespace and groundbreaking technologies from Dannar and Digital Force Technologies, powered by DIU Onramp Hubs, was truly inspiring.
At Credo, we are proud to align with DCI Next's mission to ‘Strengthen National Security by Empowering the Warfighter,’ and look forward to our ongoing partnership.

Our challenge? To not just present the brand but to TRANSFORM it, making it bolder, fresher, and more invigorating.
Set against the backdrop of a dimly lit warehouse, we spotlighted luxury brands like Lamborghini, bringing to life the Reflection Artists' passion. Through our lens, detailing isn't just a job - it's an ART. 🖼
We saw an overwhelming response on social media as we struck a chord with "reflection artists" across the country. ⚡ 🏎
Thank you, Buff and Shine, for trusting us with your journey.

Jason Achilles is a musician turned space pioneer, whose work with NASA led to the first recorded sounds from the surface of Mars. His latest project aims to capture video of landers from the surface of the Moon. It's a fascinating story of 21st Century Innovation.

It's a running theme here at Credo; testing often in order to learn quickly and iterate. SpaceX has deployed this model successfully, and now startups like Plasmos are adopting the ethos in order to move faster through product development.
As you can tell by the backdrop and rudimentary setup, Plasmos is taking a very scrappy approach towards testing. It's rare to get this type of access at such an early stage of development. We think it's really cool that Plasmos is truly building in public and giving people a close up look into how a 21st Century rocket company is built.
Thanks to Ali Baghchehsara and Plasmos for allowing us to share this experience.
