Thanks Ross
It's not often that business people genuinely claim victory from apparent defeat. But the attitude of Adam Gilmour, CEO of @GilmourSpace is inspiring. His commentary and attitude as Eris launches, then fails, is fantastic. Watch it here: lnkd.in/g_HUz8nJ @SkyNewsAust

We sat on the pad for 2 hours fully fueled waiting for the winds one one level to drop by a bit and it didn’t drop. So we try again tomorrow with better forecasted winds

Just finished the 3 body problem on Netflix. Very interesting concepts and shows how an alien race can mess with us from a distance because of our reliance on “connected” systems. Worthwhile keeping a lot of analogue vehicles handy

The Govt could 💯 be growing our critical space, defence & manufacturing industries by buying satellites & launch services from #AustralianOwned companies developing #sovereign capabilities for the nation 🇦🇺 In today’s @australian: theaustralian.com.au/nation/…

This helicopter was one of the best technology demonstrations in the world. Great inspiration and demonstration of what would have seemed impossible to many was doable. Congrats to @NASAJPL team.

Building sovereign capability requires risk taking & 🇦🇺 funding for deep tech R&D…We’re grateful to our Super investors, incl @Hostplus CIO @SamSicilia, for doing more than their fair share to support innovation & grow sovereign capability in Australia. #buildingthefuture 🚀
