Watch LIVE as SpaceX launches 21 payloads aboard Falcon 9, to a Polar Orbit from Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. The payloads which have been manufactured by York Space Systems will be operated by the Space Development Agency and operate over the KA band, and are networked for simpler hand-offs, greater bandwidth and fault tolerance. This mission is the first of six missions for the Space Force Development Agency. Booster on this flight has not yet been disclos ...

A hacker launched a token called $SCATMAN and promoted it after hacking the @SpaceXAI and @Starlink accounts. 🚨The hacker then minted 10T $SCATMAN and dumped all for 59 $ETH($108K).Another wallet controlled by the hacker also sold 59.28M $SCATMAN for 14.7 $ETH($27K).In total, the hacker made about $125K.Hacker's wallet:0xfee50d4ce48f2d05f520ce04c875647e4870a8ba0xdd9f6d3e16ebda7f35cb694ceadb50af3eebba89 ...

AI Infrastructure Market Dynamics - The mega bull case for AI infrastructure relies on a market shift away from frontier labs with over 90% inference margins toward more cost-effective open-source or closed models [1] - Increased intelligence per dollar for end customers is expected to drive incremental token demand, redistributing margin dollars from model developers to infrastructure providers [2] - Infrastructure winners will be defined by the lowest cost per token, while model layer winners will be determined by the highest token efficiency [2] Strategic Industry Shifts - NVIDIA’s focus on open source is driven by the economic logic that lower margins at the model layer translate to higher margin dollars at the infrastructure layer [3] - Vertical integration by major players like SpaceX and Meta, which possess the 3 and 4 ranked models respectively, increases the feasibility of this market shift [3] - Competitive dynamics are evolving, as evidenced by Grok 4.5 outperforming Fable in specific tasks at a significantly lower cost [3] Economic Value Distribution - While cheap, open-source tokens currently account for the majority of total volume, the majority of economic value remains concentrated in the most intelligent models [4] - The current market structure has not yet fully transitioned, but the potential for a shift in value accrual remains a key industry watchpoint [4]

Operational Strategy - SpaceX emphasizes that the path to successful launches is characterized by overcoming significant obstacles through collaborative engineering efforts [1] - The "Critical Path" series documents the intensive final preparations and technical workflows conducted by SpaceX engineers leading up to Starship launch events [1]

RT X Freeze (@XFreeze)For the first time, Starship will carry 20 next-generation Starlink V3 satellites to spaceStarlink V3 is designed to massively expand the network’s capacity and increase user speedsAfter deployment, the test satellites will:• Extend their solar arrays and antennas• Attempt to connect with ground stations in South Africa• Establish links with the wider Starlink constellation using high-capacity lasersThe satellites will follow the same suborbital trajectory as Starship, meaning they wil ...

STARSHIP FLIGHT 13: WHAT TO EXPECTSpaceX is targeting Thursday, July 16, 2026 for Starship Flight 13 — the second flight of the upgraded V3 vehicle.Here’s what’s expected on this test flight:• First flight of the new V3 Starship and Super Heavy booster (major upgrades in structure, engines, and performance)• Deployment test of next-generation Starlink V3 satellites• Continued testing of heat shield performance and reentry• Controlled splashdown of the upper stage in the Indian Ocean (similar to Flight 12)• ...

Maybe the Elon Musk brand is very strong in the US, but it's not so strong in Denmark. Actually, I would rather say that, you know, many people driving a Tesla is maybe a little bit embarrassed about it. And certainly among our scheme members, there's a huge reputational risk in investing in an Elon Musk-led company.So, I've been here for 9 years now, and I never experienced in my 9 years as CIO so many uh scheme members coming back to me with positive comments from a single investment decision as I experie ...

Starship Flight 13 is targeting launch as early as July 16. 🚀For the first time, SpaceX plans to deploy 20 Starlink V3 satellites while testing upgraded heat shields, an in-space Raptor engine relight, and key improvements from previous flights. https://t.co/ylavm7mlVl ...
