Last August, we previewed Genie 3: a general-purpose world model that turns a single text prompt into a dynamic, interactive environment. Since then, trusted testers have taken it further than we ever imagined — experimenting, exploring, and pioneering entirely new interactive worlds. Now, it’s your turn. Starting today, we're rolling out access to Project Genie for Google AI Ultra subscribers in the U.S. (18 ). We know what you create will be out of this world 🚀

Installing the redesigned fuel transfer tube into the first next generation Super Heavy booster. Roughly the same size as the first stage of a Falcon 9 rocket, the new transfer tube is responsible for channeling cryogenic fuel from Super Heavy's main tank to its 33 Raptor engines and will enable faster, more reliable flip maneuvers and the ability for simultaneous engine startup
