In this episode of 50 Chairs, Gary Hensley sits down with Chris Stott, CEO of Lone Star Lunar, to discuss what it takes to turn a once-radical idea, storing data on the moon, into operational reality.
Chris shares how listening deeply to customer pain around data sovereignty and security led him to develop space-based and lunar data centers. He explains the legal, regulatory, and geopolitical frameworks that make off-planet data storage viable and why understanding the “rules of the game” before playing is critical.
The conversation explores:
- Building credibility as a young founder
- Attracting world-class partners through vision
- Working with regulators as strategic allies
- The legal architecture of space sovereignty
- Raising a child to pursue purpose over prestige
- Why we are entering an era of technological abundance
This episode is about vision, courage, and building for a future most people can’t yet see.
