Ils ont commencé le stacking de la tour du deuxième pad au Cap! C'est le quatrième pad de Starship en construction!

I was standing just behind this watching it all happen -- I believe this was around 3 or 4 am. Such an awesome night. Also the first time I met Grimes!

The AI designed my sky scraper - what could go wrong?

He held was fully trained with a valid Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL), which under Transport Canada regulations allowed him to fly as a fully qualified co-pilot. He lacked the airline transport pilot licence (ATPL) to upgrade to Captain. End of story. cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/a…

$VSAT: Viasat today announced it was awarded a prime contract by the U.S. Space Force’s (USSF) Space Systems Command (SSC) to build, launch and deliver the first of a proliferated fleet of small, maneuverable geosynchronous Earth orbit (GEO) satellites under the Protected Tactical SATCOM-Global (PTS-G) program. The new Swarm 1 Delivery Order contract builds on Viasat’s completion of the Delivery Order 1 (DO1) phase awarded in 2025, where the company successfully matured a system design for a resilient, low size, weight and power (SWaP) GEO satellite and associated ground architecture to dynamically support key hot spot service areas. The proposed satellite design and operational concept illustrates how Viasat is applying low cost, high performance dual-use technology to provide resilient connectivity for an increasingly contested tactical communications environment.

🚀 SpaceX Musk veut mettre les data centers dans l'espace. Tout le monde ricane. Ils ont tort... en partie. C'est de la physique, pas de la bourse. 1️⃣ L'énergie d'abord. En orbite "dusk-dawn", le satellite longe en permanence la ligne jour-nuit de la Terre — il ne passe jamais dans l'ombre. Exposition solaire continue, sans batterie, sans intermittence. C'est de la mécanique orbitale, pas une promesse. 2️⃣ Le refroidissement ensuite. Les serveurs dissipent leur chaleur par radiation infrarouge directement dans le vide. Pas d'eau, pas de climatisation, pas de pompes comme sur Terre, où le refroidissement représente jusqu'à 40% de la consommation d'un data center. Le reste est un pari boursier. 🛠️ La maintenance : un composant en panne en orbite ne se remplace pas avec un technicien. Le concept de conteneurs modulaires échangeables n'a jamais été démontré à cette échelle. 💰 Le coût : toute l'équation repose sur Starship ramenant le lancement à un prix compétitif avec la construction terrestre. Ce n'est pas encore le cas. 🛰️ La connectivité : le lien vers les stations au sol reste à construire, ajoute de la latence, et reconstitue une partie de l'infrastructure qu'on cherchait à éliminer. ➡️ Résumé : le solaire permanent et le refroidissement gratuit sont de la physique. Le reste est un pari sur Starship : une fusée qui n'a toujours pas prouvé sa fiabilité. Source FT

Évidemment, vous enjambez le problème de l'architecture aberrante, risquée.

Grabbed more $HOVR 🧑‍🚀 This is Phil Kelly who joined @HorizonAircraft almost 2 yrs ago as SVP of Business Development below is a clip worthy of listening to, I’ve had the privilege of speaking to him. Like him a lot, extremely sharp imo 🐂 Brandon Robinson, Co-Founder CEO @HorizonAircraft , said: “Phil is a fantastic addition to our team.  His career flying military fighter jets speaks for itself, and his personal experience of flying military VTOLs will be invaluable as we continue with the development and testing of our Cavorite X7 aircraft. Phil’s former roles as head of aircraft development in the UK Royal Navy and Royal Marines will help us to identify new opportunities around future collaboration and revenue generation.” Long $HOVR 🧑‍🚀🐂

It’s a little bit crazy to think about the fact that this is the same company I started working for 18 years ago with a group of less than 500 people who were just learning how to design and operate launchers, but here we are. Still learning how to design and operate (much larger and more capable) launchers. Plus some other things…

Oppenheimer has initiated coverage on SpaceX stock ($SPCX) with an Outperform rating and a $190 price target, which would be a $2.5 trillion market cap. "We see potential for SPCX to leverage terrestrial compute expertise as a bridge (and possible back-up plan) to enable key scale and cost advantages. We see it as the only vertically-integrated AI company with the required capital, data, LLMs, hardware, manufacturing and engineering talent. We believe that SpaceX will use its expertise in engineering, manufacturing and space technologies to grow to the largest communications, cloud/AI company in the world, in our scenario. This is a very large TAM with high barriers to entry. We expect extreme stock and operational volatility. The company faces complex engineering/manufacturing/physics challenges that are likely to be resolved but create the risk of falling behind schedule. SPCX will leverage a monopoly on reusable rockets and hardware manufacturing—antennas, hardware, solar panels, satellites, chips etc.—to do so."

Astonishing view 😍36 Amazon Leo satellites are stored in our 20-meter-high payload fairing. Our fairing will protect the heaviest payload on an @arianespace Ariane 6 rocket yet🚀
