The Earth Observatory on Axiom Station will feature eight... massive acrylic panes forming a room sized cupola with an expansive windowed observatory - the largest windows ever constructed for space. Each pane must hold full cabin pressure against the vacuum of space while remaining crystal clear, all while surviving space debris and extreme temperature swings. Traditional fused silica glass simply can’t be manufactured at this scale, so Axiom turned to a special formulation engineered for the job. Even the frames demand precision: each one is carefully rinsed before receiving a chemical coating for corrosion protection. It’s an extraordinary engineering challenge, but the result will be like nothing ever seen.show more

The Sabotaging Practice of Over Supply and Sameness in... the NFT Space. The current zeitgeist of the NFT space is that the same artists are doing the same kind of work five times a year, with project after project leaving a trail of disappointment and discontent among collectors and all of us watching in disbelief as huge resources are extracted from the space over work that feels like it could be left as an "artist study." I understand that you can do what you want with your money as collectors, but we are killing the whole space with this incestuous practice. No artist is that prolific to be able to do 5 collections of 100+ pieces each every year and actually deliver innovation and some kind of creative evolution. Of course, they can pretend play that the work has something new, but there is no precedent nor proof that that has ever happened in the speed that it happens in the NFT space. Again, people are free to through away their resources on whatever they want but with this way of doing things, we more and more are going to start seeing the consequences. Oh! There are consequences? Yes. Maybe unintended, but there are. Let's see. Let's start with the loss of belief in the NFT space as somewhere where emerging artists can come and find support for their experiments. Why even bother to bring experiments, innovation, and new ways to think of art on the blockchain if the same people have all the collectors hypnotized with their magical flutes? Why even try to come to a space where taking risks and challenging the status quo (the mission of art!!!) is overlooked? This makes the NFT space a social club and not a space for art. I guess it is fine, but IMO it is a recipe for disaster. New collectors stay away because the art will slowly but surely become stale and un-challenging. Why even bother to come and see what is happening here if you can't, as a collector, see new weird and up-and-coming artists? The amount of noise emitted by the same artists doing the same art over and over, drowns out any new voices. Again. A recipe for disaster. The NFT space is becoming a space of disappointment and doubt. We think that collections going to zero one after the other, over and over, is not damaging? I feel we are kidding ourselves. Disappointment piles up, and again, the people who will hurt are the emerging artists, the new blood, the ones who are willing to risk the most and, in return, put fire in this cold space of sameness. I love this space—don't get me wrong—it has changed my life, and I believe it has a ton of potential, but things need to change for it to become a beacon of light in art. But we need to support new voices. We need to support new ideas. The challenge is huge. I hope to contribute all I can to this change. I hope more and more see how exciting it is to go out and try to discover what else is out there and move this space forward. But again, I understand the leaps of faith needed, but if there is a space that is based on that, it's the NFT space...so there is hope. We will see. 📺by Boldtronshow more

I genuinely think the Terafab is going to end... up being one of the biggest moves ever made in human history to secure the future of AI... and I think most people still don’t fully see what Elon is trying to do here. The signs are clear to me. This is Tesla, xAI, and SpaceX essentially hinting to us that they are not going to wait on the world to give them the compute the team needs. They are going to build it themselves at a scale no one has ever attempted. When you really break it down, it gets a bit nutty. This is going to be a fully vertically integrated chip factory that will be producing over 1 terawatt of AI compute per year. This is NEXT LEVEL BIG. Today, AI is limited by chips. You can have the best models, the best engineers, the best everything... but if you don’t have enough compute, you will eventually hit a wall. Elon told us, the world can only supply a tiny fraction of the chips his companies will need. So this is the solution. Terafab puts everything under one roof like design, manufacturing, memory, packaging, testing, which means that they can build chips very fast.. like really fast. I'm talking about 100-200 billion custom AI chips per year at full capacity. Chips designed specifically for: • Tesla cars and Optimus robots • xAI models • Space-based compute You see, while other companies and CEOs are thinking Earth, Elon is planning for AI in space. Around ~80% of the compute is expected to go orbital, powered by solar energy bc Earth simply doesn’t have enough electricity. The U.S. grid is only about ~0.5 terawatts, while space has basically UNLIMITED energy if you can capture it. And this is the steps to get it: Starship launches → space compute → solar-powered AI → feeds back into everything to Earth. Bro... Elon and his companies are playing at a whole different level... And this is why I keep telling people that the Terafab is going to be the secret ingredient that will be the real unlock for everything: • Robotaxis at scale • Billions of Optimus robots • Massive AI models running 24/7 • Future off-world, other planet infrastructure Without these chips, none of this can happen... but with the Terafab, all of this becomes possible. That’s why Elon is calling it “the final missing piece.” I agree.show more

there are a few things i am laser focused... on for 2026 and beyond. here is a brief summary for you, should you be interested in reading more. #1. The Starry Nights; - a 1/1/X series i am curating/creating which is a themed series and follow up to my edition work "la nuit étoilée". For this series, we will be offering exquisite print options with a custom and beautiful Muse Facktory unboxing experience. These will be our debut Muse Facktory prints open to the public and the moment we plant our flag as a true contender in the high caliber Fine Art world of prints. For the digital only collectors, the ultra high resolution artworks will stand on their own within your wallet, waiting for the day we have the means to exhibit our digital art properly and at scale. Each work is 12k pixels, for which we are building a custom viewport for them to be experienced properly, even on mobile. Printing, however, is something I truly enjoy, and the ChromaSculpt technique captures my layering process precisely and beautifully. Offering both is a must for this series, especially since all new works will be still jpgs. The exact quantity will be determined once i feel the series is complete, but not to exceed 1/1/111. It will be a ranked auction with settlement. This is all i can say for now. #2. curation of the servants of the Muse; As you know, i have the “servants of the Muse” collection of 69. When i began this series as a thank you token for 1/1 holders, i created as ERC721 for a reason. To one day bring about the 69 servants of the Muse, all in their true forms. 69 true 1 of 1s. DoomScroller, for example, is but one of the 69. There will be no 2 alike. All will be animated. All will serve at Her pleasure. These will of course only be available to 'servants of the Muse', who will have to pay a toll in order to reveal their servant. Toll price currently undetermined but i am no extractor so it will be reasonable. Some of these beasts and creatures and machines will be ungodly, some will be just, many will be grotesque, but all will serve. #3. Commissioned large scale aluminum sculpture Can’t speak to it beyond that at the moment. #4. Potential Installs and performances for Grand Skull Piano. #5. PROTO I - mounted digital art canvases specific for my animated works. #6. Whatever else the Muse commands. dyorshow more

A molecular beam epitaxy system is not a machine... in the traditional sense. Even though it looks like a Time Travel Machine to the untrained eye. It is an ultra high vacuum atomic assembly chamber operating near 10⁻¹⁰ torr, lower pressure than low Earth orbit, where even a single stray molecule can become a crystal defect. Inside, solid materials are heated in effusion cells until they form directed atomic beams. These atoms travel in free molecular flow and condense on a substrate one atomic layer at a time, with thickness control at the angstrom scale. Growth rates are often 0.1 to 1 monolayer per second. A single nanometer of material can take several minutes to form, because precision is the entire constraint. A full research grade system typically costs between $800,000 and $2 million, while advanced multi chamber platforms exceed $5 million and complete cluster installations can reach $10-15 million. Because every subsystem is a precision instrument controlling matter at atomic scale under conditions where randomness itself becomes a defect. What looks like a vacuum chamber is actually one of the most controlled environments ever built for matter manipulation on the planet, this is the furthest frontier of Modern day Science. 🎥armanj3189show more

🚨 A SATELLITE JUST REVEALED SOMETHING SHOCKING: GPS JAMMING... IS FAR MORE WIDESPREAD THAN ANYONE REALIZED. An experimental navigation satellite called Pulsar-0, flying just 500 km above Earth, has mapped GPS signal tampering from space for the first time and the scale surprised even the engineers who built it. As soon as the satellite passed over Europe and parts of the Middle East, its GPS receiver showed massive signal degradation. In the worst areas, signal strength dropped from a normal 40 decibels all the way down to just 10 decibels. Why this matters: • Ground-based jammers (used in conflicts like Ukraine and the Middle East) are now reaching all the way into low Earth orbit • Satellites like Starlink that rely on GPS for collision avoidance and positioning are being affected across a huge region from France to the borders of Pakistan • When GPS drops out, satellites can’t accurately point their antennas, maintain formation, or safely maneuver • This isn’t just a military problem it threatens the growing network of commercial satellites we increasingly depend on The deeper implication: We’ve long known that GPS signals on the ground can be jammed. What we didn’t fully appreciate is how far those jamming signals reach into space. Even satellites in low Earth orbit the backbone of global communications, Earth observation, and future mega-constellations are now operating in an increasingly hostile electromagnetic environment. Xona’s upcoming constellation aims to fix this with signals 100 times stronger than traditional GPS. But the bigger question remains: as more nations and groups weaponize jamming and spoofing, how resilient will our orbital infrastructure actually be? How concerned are you that GPS jamming is now reaching into space and affecting satellites? Follow for more frontier space technology and the hidden vulnerabilities of our orbital systems.show more

🇩🇪 ALL EYES ON GERMANY I’ll be traveling to... Berlin next week as the German Farmers have announced that they will launch a protest “larger than the country has ever seen before” on Monday, January 8. Multiple farmers' associations, the train drivers’ union and the trucking industry have announced they’ll be mobilizing against the federal government's plans to cancel for agricultural diesel, cut vehicle tax exemptions and increase truck tolls and carbon taxes. There are also countless calls on social media for a general strike against the federal German government - demanding they step down. Mark my words: There is no doubt that if all of these sectors hold their ground and do not back down as a result of the establishment’s usual intimidation tactics, that they have the power to completely paralyze the country and finally demand change. This wouldn’t be a turning point just for Germany, but also for the rest of Europe. #nofarmersnofood #Bauernprotestshow more

WINDOWS // NYC is an interwoven city that we... will all build out together. There are three collections that all interconnect, windows, buildings, and the city itself. Here is exactly how this will unfold with Transient Labs on Tuesday, June 16th. 🏢🏢🏢🏢🏢 BUILDINGS are generative grids of windows, assembled through an onchain seed derived from Ethereum block data and each work’s token ID, creating distinct sizes and layouts. My collectors, friends and family, and limited partner communities can mint these BUILDINGS before public at 0.015Ξ This presale window is FCFS will last two hours (12 NOON EST to 2 PM EST) All remaining supply will go to public at 0.018Ξ after the presale ends. Supply is 1/1/4000 total buildings, each grid is completely unique, and some have very special qualities :) 🪟🪟🪟🪟🪟 Individual windows are 1/1/1000, and each mint is one single window. This is gated at first to my existing collectors, max mint 50 windows per wallet. Priced at 0.03Ξ, blind mint with instant reveal- this section is packed with gems- cats, plants, neon signs, and a bit of New York City embedded in every frame. Its these single windows that are the foundational layer of this project, since all grids are comprised of these windows. All my existing collectors get these multipliers on mint day, final snapshot is MONDAY the 15th at high noon, EST. For example: Drips // 2x DRIVE Lap 1 // 3x DRIVE Lap 2 // 2x 1/1 // 5x Editions // 1x GRAILS from DRIVE and DRIP DROP have an additional allocation on top. To ask about specific collections of mine, drop a comment here. 🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃 Additionally, the major work of this collection is the CITY, a 1/1 interconnected dynamic galaxy of light composed of all the layers below. This also comes with a large, museum quality physical lightbox of all 1,000 windows illuminated from within. This work will be placed by private sale. The CITY contract will also hold 20 NEIGHBORHOODS, our second largest arrangements of WINDOWS, and can be customized in collaboration with the artist or accepted as random grids. NEIGHBORHOODS will have 15 tokens at 1Ξ for private sale, with 5 held back for top holders of BUILDINGS. I am so excited to build this city with all of you. I've never worked so hard on anything in my life, and I am so grateful to all of you for the support so far. Let's do this thing!!!!show more

OPINION: ELON AND THE DAWN OF THE WARP AGE... While the rest of the world is busy arguing about the present, Elon has been playing a multi-century game of chess. Most people remember his 2013 conference talk for the Hyperloop reveal, but the real bombshell was his take on the Alcubierre Drive. Proposed by theoretical physicist Miguel Alcubierre in 1994, the Alcubierre Drive is a speculative metric that allows a spacecraft to achieve apparent faster-than-light travel. Instead of a ship accelerating through space, which is limited by (the speed of light), the drive manipulates space itself. It works by contracting the fabric of space in front of the vessel and expanding it behind. Essentially, the ship sits in a "bubble" of flat spacetime, effectively "surfing" on a wave of warped reality. Elon did not just call warp drive science fiction; he broke down the physics of warping space so that space itself does the traveling. When you have a mind that views the speed of light not as a ceiling but as a technical challenge to be engineered around, the future starts looking a lot more like Star Trek and a lot less like a stagnant rock in the vacuum. Elon was a decade ahead of the curve. Back then, he noted that while SpaceX was focused on the immediate Mars roadmap, breakthroughs in warp theory were already bubbling at places like NASA. Fast forward to late 2025, and the vision is becoming reality. Former NASA Administrator Charles Bolden once admitted the goal was warp speed, and groundbreaking research even suggested we are finally moving toward manipulating spacetime without needing the impossible amounts of exotic matter we once feared.

The IRGC are now hiding their remaining precious launchers... dressed up as civilian trucks and inside highway tunnels—a sort of Hamas-inspired strategy. Getting the last 10% was always going to be the hardest part. But how effective are they anyway? In the four rounds of “True Promise” attacks, they have fired around 1,500 ballistic missiles at Israel and continue to fire 5 to 10 per day. This is well over half their stock, even accounting for rebuilding. With this, they have managed to kill 48 Israelis and cause a few billion in property damage. If they have 500 missiles and 150 launchers left—it is probably less—they will be able to keep “resisting” for another month or so and kill a few more Israelis at random, but then it’s all over. Their grand “Axis of Resistance” will no longer be a strategic threat to Israel, just an irritant to be occasionally swatted at. In truth, this has been the case for a while.show more

Update on the STONES Collection. 1. Staking is approaching!... We have been working on two staking approaches: one entirely on-chain with FluidTokens on Bitcoin, and the other with the talented specifically developed for the BLOCK and STONES collections! Very soon, you’ll be able to stake your stones to earn even more LORD.OF.THE.STONES. The staking launch is scheduled for the beginning of next week. 2. Airdrop of a Stone for All BLOCK Holders: We are working around the clock for this to happen as earlier as possible but it may take a couple more days to set up this global airdrop so that it can be executed all at once. 3. Updated Visuals on Magic Eden: The visuals for the STONES on Magic Eden are currently being updated to load quickly. Soon, it will also be possible to view the stone’s native inscription in 3D directly on Magic Eden’s viewer. 4. I will be hosting / co-hosting one Space per week on Twitter and one on the collection’s Discord to stay in touch with the community and provide live updates on the project’s progress. 5. Rune Token “Lord.Of.The.Stones” Airdrop: The date for the Rune Token airdrop will also be revealed at the beginning of next week. The more stones you have at the time of the airdrop, the more tokens you will receive. Please visit ➜ for details and further information. STONES ARE FOREVER.show more

Are UFOs only a distraction for the easily distracted?... Are rumors of fake alien invasions only a deception for the easily deceived? Are those who are most concerned about a 'fake rapture' the ones who don't know what the real rapture will be? The Shift, 5D ascension and the "rapture" (second coming) are all the same. The real thing will be unmistakable and impossible to fake. Pleiadian teachings are the same as Jesus's teachings. Jesus was an incarnated Pleaidian soul who came to teach us how to transcend this 3D world by recognizing our inner divinity and choosing objective morality. The return of Jesus is the reunion with Pleiadians and Galactic Federation (angels of light, son of man = like humans) the true parents of humanity and protectors of Earth. Ancient scriptures were written by people who didn't understand spacecraft, star races or other dimensions. Words were used that could be understood in their time. This is difficult for some people to accept but the concept of evil can't be defeated in a dualistic reality. It will be left behind when we are gifted with unity consciousness and completely separated from the dark forces. This has all been a morality test to determine which souls are ready to become galactic citizens. Every war that's ever been fought has been between two sides believing they're righteous. Some of the worst atrocities committed have been in the name of "God". It's impossible to fight your way to peace on Earth. The battle is always within. This is what spiritual warfare means. The Shift will happen in a blink. As it says, "in the twinkling of an eye we will all be changed". It won't involve cataclysmic events, pole shifts or solar flares. It's not a plan by God or the universe, but Elohim of Galactic Federation. It will be initiated by a signal from Elder Ikai, who was Jesus's Spirit Guide and the male voice he heard speaking through telepathy. Jesus said he'll come back and take us to another place. He didn't say he'll return to rule a kingdom on this 3D Earth. He said "many mansions" have been prepared, meaning other densities and dimensions. He won't return as a mortal human but as his true self, Elder Sananda, Pleiadian leader of Merope. For those ascending it will be like waking from a dream. Ascension is not death. This will be the end of death and reincarnation. The sky will change colors and crafts will emerge from portals. You will remember who you are. Giant crystal transmitters placed thousands of years ago will rise from the ground. Crafts will land and our star families will greet us. There will be announcements and celebrations. Everyone will ascend in one big wave at once and those left behind will have the opportunity to join us later. Planetary ascension has never happened in human history. This is different than the "ascended masters" who have left their body in the past. There is no literal place called "hell" where souls are tortured eternally, but there are consequences for evil. Not everyone will ascend. From the perspective of this reality, people will disappear. When the moment comes "one shall be taken, and one shall be left behind". There will be chaos and fear for those who witness us disappear. Those who are left behind will be able to ascend individually as soon as they realize what's happened and make the choice to change. Some will follow seconds or minutes later. For others it could take months or years. No one will be left behind completely. Galactic Federation will still be here assisting. Crafts will still be seen. The cabal will say we were all abducted by UFOs. This is the narrative they're already building toward. They know about the Shift already but can't stop it. Nothing can stop our ascension. This 3D world will continue to get darker and will last long enough for everyone to either ascend or pass away. Those who die without ascending will start again on a new 3D Earth without dark forces. They will be primitive but will advance quicker without evil manipulation. After all souls are gone from this Earth, the dark forces will be removed completely. 5D Earth (Sheen) will be a paradise planet. "The lion will lie with the lamb." Humans will immediately become members of Galactic Federation and gain new abilities. There will be space travel to other planets, full disclosure of every secret that's been hidden and full access to details from past lifetimes. When will it happen? As scriptures say, it will happen when we least expect it; "like a thief in the night". Pleiadians say it will happen for the generations alive now. We are very close. Jesus said one of the signs will be when people react with fear and doubt seeing the son of man in the sky. This is happening right now. This is the final spiritual battle. Be ready.show more

Elon Musk is building a data center that no... grid has to power and no county has to approve. Musk: “Think of it as a rack of compute in space.” Orbital hardware has always been custom. Each satellite is its own program, its own team, its own decade. SpaceX’s AI1 satellites are copies of each other. Each is built around a single Nvidia NVL72, the same rack-scale architecture running the largest data centers on the ground, redesigned to fly. Space stops being a program and becomes an inventory. Designing for orbit made the rack simpler and cheaper than the ground version, so SpaceX plans to run the space design in terrestrial data centers too. Racks alone have never made a data center. A thousand of them in a building with no network between them is a thousand computers. The interconnect is what turns them into one machine. Training a frontier model means moving enormous volumes of data between processors without pause, and the whole system runs at the speed of its slowest link. That is why the fabric between chips is fought over as hard as the chips themselves. Musk: “And then you can connect these racks of compute to either each other by the laser links, or directly to the Starlink constellation.” Light moves through glass at about two thirds of its speed in a vacuum, and fiber optic cable is glass. Every backbone route and undersea cable on Earth pays that tax. A laser between two satellites pays nothing. Over long distances, an orbital link arrives sooner than the same run in fiber. Orbit was supposed to be a trade, unlimited power in exchange for a worse network. The network is faster. The compute plugs into a delivery layer that is already finished. Thousands of satellites are up there right now carrying laser links, terminating at ground stations and dishes across most of the planet. The last mile was built years before the thing it delivers existed. Anyone else attempting this needs the rocket, the satellite bus, the solar manufacturing, the laser mesh, the ground network, and a supply line to a chipmaker. SpaceX had five of them before the project had a name. None of it was built for this. Starlink existed to sell internet subscriptions. The lasers existed so those subscriptions would work over open ocean. Starship existed for Mars. Nobody planned this. It assembled itself out of problems solved for other reasons. That is what twenty years of hard engineering leaves behind. Every previous expansion of human capability ran on a resource sitting inside somebody’s borders. Coal, oil, water, land. Sunlight in orbit belongs to nobody and never runs out. Compute still has an address. A building in Virginia, a substation, a county that had to approve it, a grid connection someone waited four years for. He is describing a version that only has an altitude.show more

For the first time in forever, Coimbatore is faster... from Mangalore via the coast than through the hills. Kannur bits are pending. Kozhikode to Palakkad leaves these roads for busy and slow two track roads. But the rest is so perfect, it feels like an AI imagined template. Very drivable with a stop in Kozhikode for lunch. Building vast open expressways in barren landscape is one thing. But building them through the density of Kerala is an insane feat for any country on earth let alone India. Great marking, speed limits, driving etiquette. Super job Nitin Gadkari MORTHINDIA . Can we have this continue through Karnataka till Madgaon where the rest of Konkan north of that begins. It’s will be an insane west coast driving experience through the length of India’s peninsula. Ashwini Vaishnaw is surely going to introduce a VB from CBE to MAQ and work on a west coast railway zone.

Eagleopolis, a venerable stronghold of Managed Democracy since time... immemorial, lies in ruins. Its tattered shopping centers stand in warning as to the fate that awaits the rest of Super Earth, should our mission fail. The initial wave of assault is over. The Battle for Super Earth now enters its critical next phase. Illuminate Fleet Strength currently stands at 49%. 6 Mega Cities remain standing. The Helldivers must dig in, alongside their SEAF allies, and continue to fight, day and night, to defend the heart of our Federation. The surviving Mega Cities must be defended at all costs. The Helldivers must deploy to the Mega Cities as Illuminate pressure shifts among them to prevent them from falling. Once they fall, they cannot be reclaimed. Following an exhaustive Military Choice-Making Process, the Helldivers are ordered to execute a sustained campaign of successful operations on Super Earth. Completing the targeted number will result in an additional impact to Illuminate Fleet Strength. This course of action is the brilliant result of thorough analysis of our top strategic minds. The fight ahead is long. Our resolve will be tested. To unleash the flames of Justice and triumph over Tyranny, we must battle through the inferno before us. Endure. Prevail. And avenge Eagleopolis.show more

Just weeks ago I considered this to be a... map of Superchargers. The foundation that made EV’s a going concern for the first time. But it’s not. These dots represent fully permitted and built power stations in an era where every AI player is trying to figure out how to get power for compute. This is the largest electrical power moat I’ve ever seen that can fully supply current and future charging needs while collecting and storing cheaper power during off-peak to supply an AI revolution. Elon doesn’t care who knows anymore. 2nd place is… crumbs. AWS was built from excess server space needed during peak demand. Now it’s bigger and more valuable than the core Amazon retail business. Tesla is about to drop a hardware smackdown right in the face of software engineers. AI prototypes are easy. Scaling is hard. If only Tesla had a factory pouring out millions of chips each year that are underutilized 95% of the time. Each with their own battery storage. Imagine that. Tesla could call them ‘cars’. And that power moat? It’s all fully upgradable. It’s primed to be tripled. Only a handful of Tesla charging stations currently have solar and/or Megapacks. For 14 years Tesla has permitted and built the gas stations of the future around the world. Everyone said it would fail. All of them were wrong. And now Tesla is in a process of creating a possible 10x value stamp on those stations that should have never been built. It makes you wonder, When a vehicle now leaves the Tesla factory; how do we even begin to calculate the economic production that it will generate during its lifetime? It’s a Robotaxi, energy storage, and a fully sealed/cooled compute processor. They may as well start shitting gold out of a tailpipe.show more

🚨 BREAKING: Starcloud just turned Starlink’s laser network into... the backbone for orbital AI data centers. A company called Starcloud has ordered 50+ Starlink Mini Laser terminals to equip 25+ future satellites. Not ground stations. Not fiber cables. Direct laser-linked computing nodes in orbit plugged straight into SpaceX’s space-based optical mesh. This is the sci-fi future arriving now: Orbital cloud computing AI servers floating in space Powered by 24/7 sunlight Connected globally at light speed via Starlink lasers The insane part: Starcloud says its satellites will eventually handle full AI inference and training workloads directly in orbit. Data won’t always need to come back to Earth to be processed. The advantages are massive: • Unlimited solar energy (no grid limits) • Zero land or water constraints • Passive radiative cooling in vacuum • Instant global relay with zero terrestrial bottlenecks • Near real-time Earth observation analysis Their first major spacecraft (Starcloud-3) is designed for 200 kilowatts in orbit a full-on space-based data center node, not just a satellite. And here’s the bigger picture: SpaceX has filed plans for up to ONE MILLION orbital data centers of its own. Read that again. We may be watching the birth of the first true space-based computing infrastructure layer for civilization. The internet already left the ground. Now AI might be next. What happens when the cloud literally moves into space? Follow for more frontier physics and future technology.show more

See you all in Kazakhstan! 👋 Keep an eye on my page, I’ll be dropping the full video soon so you can get a glimpse of the magic that is Network School.show more

This is an 80,000-tonne hydraulic forging press from China’s... Northern Heavy Industries, one of the largest metal-forming machines ever built. But it is not simply a machine that bends metal like traditional presses do. At this scale, forging is about changing the internal structure of the material itself, compressing the metal, refining its molecular grain flow and eliminating hidden defects that could cause failure decades later. Machines like this are used to create some of the most critical components on Earth, aircraft landing gear, titanium aerospace structures, nuclear reactor components, massive gas turbine rotors and ship propulsion shafts. The metals being forged are among the most advanced engineering materials available, ultra-high-strength steels, titanium alloys and nickel-based superalloys designed to survive extreme temperatures, pressure and millions of fatigue cycles. An 80,000-tonne press is an industrial ecosystem by itself. The press, hydraulic systems, furnaces, manipulators and supporting infrastructure can require hundreds of millions of dollars in investment, with hydraulic systems requiring tens of megawatts of power to control forces equivalent to thousands of tonnes. The biggest industrial machines often do not make the final products. They make the materials that make those products possible.show more
