Nothing compares to Aerogel, that's why it's Aerogel.

One might as well compare a 1977 Porsche 911 targa to the current 911 targa.

Were one to compare Porsches, which comes out on top?

Aerogel (as a category) can't compare to the Vector Equilibrium, because it is highly ordered while aerogel is amorphous.

NASA chose a cubic lattice because they are trapped in a Cartesian paradigm.

Dutch EV startup Lightyear on Tuesday revealed its first model, the Lightyear One, a sleek sedan with in-wheel motors and solar panels spanning the hood and roof. It also happens to look like a modern interpretation of the iconic Citroen DS.

I suspect there is a learning curve. They give away 3000 hours of computer time with the caveat that everything is in public domain, then you can pay for private access once you're up the curve.
