South Korea has successfully completed the first fully successful flight test of the KALCM Cheonryong (Korean Air-Launched Cruise Missile), which is expected to become the primary long-range strike weapon of the future KF-21 Boramae multirole fighter. On June 25, the missile was launched for the first time from an FA-50 light combat aircraft. After separation, it successfully ignited its main engine, stabilized its flight, and completed the entire test profile as planned. The successful flight comes after two unsuccessful attempts in January and March, when the missiles crashed into the sea due to failures in the ignition of the main propulsion engine following launch.

Thank you, O'Reilly Auto Parts, for being an incredible supplier throughout this restoration project. For the past three months, I've been bringing my buddy's 1997 Ford Ranger back to life. When I got it, it was completely dead—it wouldn't even start. The project started with a full tune-up: spark plugs, wires, and an ignition coil. One interesting thing about this 4-cylinder engine is that it uses 8 spark plugs, which surprises a lot of people. Even after getting it running, it still had a rough idle, so the troubleshooting continued. I replaced the: •Idle Air Control (IAC) valve •PCV valve •EVAP vapor canister •EVAP purge solenoid •EVAP sensor •Oxygen sensors After tracking down a stubborn vacuum leak and replacing the right parts, the truck now runs like a rock star. While I was at it, I also replaced: •Brake lines •Brake rotors and pads •All four shocks •Fuel filter •Ignition solenoid •Ignition switch actuator under the steering column •Complete A/C compressor system with refrigerant •Headlight assemblies, upgraded to LED lighting Nearly every part for this project came from O'Reilly Auto Parts (the ignition coil was the only exception). A special thank you to the team at O'Reilly Auto Parts Store #4450 in St. Petersburg. They have been incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and helpful every step of the way. I especially want to thank Store Manager Melissa, Assistant Store Manager Tony, and parts specialists Nate and William. Their expertise and willingness to help made a challenging restoration much easier. It's refreshing to see customer service like this still exists. Thank you all for helping bring this old Ranger back to life!

COMING SOON: The Automated Ball-Strike Challenge System (ABS) presented by T-Mobile will be used during Spring Training games for the first time ever. ABS has been tested in the minor leagues since 2021, and 2025 will be the first test with the Major League players. About 60% of 2025 Spring Training games will be played using the ABS Challenge system. The ABS system uses a set of cameras around the field to track the pitch location and allows players on the field to challenge an umpire’s ball-strike call. ABS Challenge Rules: - Each team starts the game with two challenges. - Only the batter, the pitcher, or the catcher can challenge an umpire’s call. - A challenge must be made immediately after the umpire’s call without assistance from the dugout or other players. - A scoreboard graphic will show the location of the pitch and the result of the challenge. - Successful challenges are retained – you only lose your challenge if the umpire’s call is confirmed.

A bright object with a long trail was spotted over parts of Balochistan, including Nushki and Kharan, on September 23. The visuals quickly triggered speculation that Pakistan may have conducted an unannounced missile test. Some observers have suggested a ballistic missile or even a hypersonic system, but there is no official confirmation yet. Pakistan has recently conducted tests of systems including Fateh-II and Fatah-4, which has added to the speculation. But a bright object and its trail alone are not enough to identify the missile or confirm that a test actually took place. Claims that this was an ICBM or hypersonic missile remain unverified. For now, the biggest mystery is what exactly appeared over Balochistan. Until Pakistan’s military or another reliable source identifies the object, it is safer to call it an unidentified aerial event rather than a confirmed hypersonic or ICBM test. #Balochistan #Pakistan #missiles #MissileStrike #MissileDefense

Elon Musk’s startup Neuralink has announced a breakthrough: a paralyzed man has managed to control a drone using only the power of thought. The patient, who suffered a spinal cord injury, used an implanted brain interface to steer the drone and later wrote computer code linking the Neuralink chip to the drone’s control system. It marks the first time a person with complete paralysis has remotely operated a device without any physical movement or external sensors. Neuralink says the technology could pave the way for restoring independence to people with severe injuries.

I often wonder about how SpaceX plans to actually pull off multiple Starship flights per day. As Elon Musk has pointed out, computer simulations have steep limits you can't just simulate a vehicle traveling at 17,000 mph and experiencing 6 Gs on a screen. The answer is a massive, relentless physical testing pipeline that turns years of administrative certification into a rapid industrial manufacturing loop. To handle this cadence without bottlenecking the actual launch pads, SpaceX isolates its testing geographically: McGregor, Texas: The primary acceptance gate. Every single Raptor engine is shipped here for full-duration firings to qualify the combustion chambers and turbopumps. Massey's Outpost: Instead of risking the main orbital pads, ships and boosters go to this dedicated site for structural testing, static fires, and destructive evaluations. Before any Starship or Super Heavy booster is ever stacked for flight, it runs a strict 4-step gauntlet: → Cryo-Proofing: The vehicle’s tanks are pressurized and filled with extreme-cold liquid nitrogen or oxygen to verify the stainless-steel welds can handle thermal shock and flight-like stress. → Spin-Primes: Engine turbopumps are spun up to full operating speed with high-pressure gas—stopping just milliseconds before ignition—to test fluid dynamics without risking pad damage. → Static Fires: The vehicle is anchored down and the engines are hot-fired to test thrust vectoring, the aft dome's structural integrity, and the pad's water deluge system. → Wet Dress Rehearsal: A completely fueled, fully simulated launch countdown right down to the final seconds before ignition. Now, SpaceX is duplicating this entire operation on the East Coast. With a massive new facility at Florida's Roberts Road and dedicated on-site liquefaction plants at LC-39A, they are laying the groundwork to support up to 44 launches a year.

🚨BIG DEVELOPMENT IN LAKSHADWEEP Union Minister for Earth Sciences Jitendra Singh visited Kavaratti, Lakshadweep, to review progress of India’s Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) powered desalination plant. This pioneering project uses the temperature difference between warm surface water and cold deep sea water to generate clean electricity and convert seawater into fresh drinking water for island communities. The system will provide continuous renewable energy while producing potable water, reducing dependence on diesel and strengthening energy & water security for the islands. Once operational, India will join a small group of nations experimenting with OTEC technology, positioning the country at the forefront of ocean based renewable energy solutions. A major step for India’s Blue Economy, island sustainability, and deep ocean technology leadership.

🚨 CHEVROLET JUST REMOVED THE START BUTTON FROM ITS CARS — AND WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO INSTEAD HAS DRIVERS LOSING THEIR MINDS First, automakers got rid of traditional car keys. Then they replaced them with push-button ignition. Now Chevrolet has decided even the start button needs to go. The new 2027 Chevy Bolt EV is introducing a completely different way to start your car. And you won't find an ignition button anywhere. Instead, you climb into the driver's seat with your key fob in your pocket and simply press the brake pedal. That's it. The car turns on automatically. To shut the vehicle off, you put it in park, unbuckle your seatbelt and open the driver's door. The car automatically powers down. No turning a key. No pressing a button. No manually shutting off the vehicle. Chevrolet is betting drivers will love the convenience of having one less thing to do. But there's a bigger question here. Automakers are increasingly replacing familiar physical controls with automated systems, leaving drivers with less direct control over basic functions. Some people will call this innovation. Others wonder why car manufacturers keep trying to fix things that were never broken. What was wrong with a regular start button, and why do automakers keep removing simple features that worked perfectly fine for decades?

Oreshnik on combat duty in Belarus — Europe now within 5,500 km range The Russian Defense Ministry claims that the Oreshnik missile system transferred to Russia has already gone on combat duty in Belarus. Oreshnik is an experimental Russian medium-range missile system that uses ballistic missiles. It was first employed in November 2024 during a strike on Dnipro. Its estimated range is up to 5,500 km, which puts half of Europe within reach. Earlier, U.S. researchers identified a likely deployment site for the Oreshnik — the former Krichev-6 military airfield in the Mogilev region, just five kilometers from the Russian border.
