Big thanks to everyone who joined the July gathering of the BSN! ✨☄️

See y’all August 24th at Naco Taco Central! 🖖🏻

For the 1st time as an integrated system, Roc and TA-1 headed outside today ahead of #HurricaneHilary to do some ground tests, including fueling part of TA-1’s propulsion system. TA-1 will be our first powered #hypersonic vehicle, anticipated to fly in the coming months. #LetsRoc

When Ursa Major invites you out with the promise of getting up close & personal with rocket engines, they mean it! This brought a whole new meaning to "hands on"!!! The gear head in me absolutely loved it! Can't wait to share the whole tour with you as early as next week! 🙌

Stoke Space raised $100 million in a new round of funding to develop fully reusable rocket "Nova," designed to deliver up to 5,000 kilograms to low Earth orbit: cnbc.com/2023/10/05/reu… "The priority is to be able to keep the pedal to the metal" - CEO Andy Lapsa

Manufacturing rocket engines is complex and expensive. Ursa Major wants to help by building engines for space startups. Follow Ashlee Vance to a very loud engine test in Colorado: youtu.be/u1rivUSi8p8

🚀Calling all defense startups interested in showcasing at the HBS-MIT Tech & NatSec Conference (March 2024) to 400+ attendees incl. senior gov. leaders, investors, & defense execs. Applications due by Dec. 15th - looking fwd to seeing some cool folks! tech-and-security-conference.com/showcase

Somehow even more aggregation on the horizon in the world of engineering software finance.yahoo.com/news/synopsys-…

This surely isn’t slowing down the progress of hardware companies? 🤦‍♂️

Woke up at 2am to watch the culmination of 2 different programs that I was lucky enough to be a small part of. Started my career with ULA working propulsion for Vulcan. Then went on to Blue Origin to help design and build BE-4 (and BE-3U). Congrats to everyone involved!

I feel like Tony Stark and Doctor Strange 😄 Meta Quest 3 + CADDY app

I have mad respect for Karpathy. But RL agents will not find exploits in physics that give us infinite energy, or anything like that. As somebody who knows a thing or two about both AI and physics, I am quite certain of this. The so-called standard model of particle physics

There's a 3D metal printer in space. We're living in the future. Details: shorturl.at/fIPR0 European Space Agency

An actual interesting and exciting Vision Pro app!

Ursa Major and Stratolaunch achieved a major leap forward with the first flight of a privately funded reusable hypersonic vehicle during today's test over the Pacific Ocean. brnw.ch/21wHJzz

A huge thank you to Professor Matt Weinzierl & Brendan Rousseau from Harvard Business School for having me (Payload 🚀) at their class "Space, Public and Commercial Economics" along with Kevin Weil 🇺🇸 (Planet) & Jeffrey Manber (Voyager). Amazing to see how the curriculum and student interest
