33:04>> Story number four. It's now an optics and nanotech story. This was uh today. It actually came out. The silica breakthrough. High-tech lenses for common glass. This is out of Harvard. Frederrico Kapaso. So, traditionally flat metal lenses require this exotic and expensive materials to bend light. You know, we know as you get smaller in scale, things become more expensive. We see this with chips and all these other things. And so they've sort of perfected this single clean path of light without having to you like they've perfected this ability to do what used to take massive scale and massive cost with basically off-the-shelf glass.
33:45>> Yeah. Yeah. It's it's pretty insane. I mean, it's it's going to be way cheaper, right? Massive scale, lower cost,
