A Year in Space: Varda's Capsule Returns

A year ago, Mark Herbert, VP of Biopharma Business Development at Varda Space Industries, joined me on one of the most popular episodes of this podcast. Today, he's back with some exciting updates on Varda's latest mission, which involved launching a satellite and conducting pioneering drug manufacturing experiments in space. From overcoming regulatory hurdles to making groundbreaking discoveries, Varda's journey is a glimpse into the future of pharmaceuticals—and it's happening above our heads.Launching and Landing: The Mission to SpaceMark began by describing Varda's June 2023 launch, where they became the first company to send a satellite with re-entry capabilities on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. Varda was one of 35 satellites on the launch, but the only one designed to return to Earth. After orbiting for eight months, the spacecraft re-entered the atmosphere and landed at the Utah Testing and Training Range. The mission took longer than expected due to the complexities of obtaining a re-entry license from the FAA—a groundbreaking process as they were the first to go through it.While in orbit, they reproduced terrestrial experiments using their custom-designed hardware. One of the key achievements was rediscovering a new form of ritonavir, a widely studied HIV drug, which had experienced stability issues in the past. This discovery and the successful replication of these results in orbit demonstrated Varda's ability to conduct controlled pharmaceutical manufacturing in space—a major leap forward in drug development.Navigating Challenges: The Complexities of Space Re-EntryThe mission wasn't just about science—it was also a complex regulatory and logistical feat. One doesn't just bring a satellite back whenever and wherever you like.There is a lot of planning required for the re-entry, from coordinating with the FAA to clearing commercial airspace over the Western United States during their 35-minute descent. The spacecraft re-entered the atmosphere at Mach 25, a speed that necessitated strict safety protocols to avoid any conflicts with other air traffic.Varda's spacecraft had to endure extreme temperatures during re-entry, reaching three times the surface temperature of the sun. The team licensed the protective shield licensed from NASA, allowing them to maintain a stable internal temperature throughout the process. This ensured that the drug samples remained intact and unchanged during their return to Earth—a critical validation for future missions.Small Capsule, Big Impact: The Benefits of Space ManufacturingThe whole purpose of manufacturing in space is to solve formulation challenges. In microgravity, Varda was able to manipulate ritonavir's crystal forms in ways that are impossible on Earth. Beyond the chemistry, the technical and logistical challenges of this mission, honestly, blow my mind. The spacecraft's small size belies the complexity: inside, the “huggable” capsule maintains the temperature within a one-degree range, even while moving from sunlight to shadow multiple times every day in orbit.To ensure they could isolate the effects of microgravity, the team included controls—different forms of ritonavir that were stable on Earth. This careful experimental design allowed Varda to confirm that the re-entry process did not alter the drug samples, proving that drugs manufactured in space could be brought back without compromising their integrity.Looking Forward: Expanding Horizons in Space-Based Drug ManufacturingVarda's success presents new possibilities in space-based manufacturing. Currently, their focus is on small molecule crystallization. By 2025, Varda plans to expand into solvent-based applications, allowing them to test a broader range of small molecules. By 2026, the company hopes to launch biologics—complex molecules used in cutting-edge therapeutics that often face formulation challenges on Earth.Mark spoke about how Varda's work could eventually transform biologics manufacturing. For instance, many biologics are currently restricted to intravenous administration because of stability issues tied to Earth's gravity. Microgravity could help overcome these limitations, enabling new formulations that are more convenient and accessible to patients.Hypergravity: A New Tool for Drug DevelopmentHow does one determine that gravity influences the crytallization of any particular molecule? Draw the curve for the effect of increased gravity and extrapolate backward. Varda has developed a hypergravity platform at their El Segundo facility, which allows them to study the effects of increased gravity on pharmaceutical processes. By simulating up to 5G conditions, Varda is able to screen molecules and processes terrestrially, providing valuable data before investing in the high costs of spaceflight. This approach not only maximizes the chances of success in orbit but also adds a new dimension—literally—to pharmaceutical research.Hypergravity serves as a negative dataset, helping researchers anticipate how microgravity might alter their processes. By tweaking the “gravity knob,” Varda can better design experiments that leverage the unique conditions of space to create novel drug formulations.Future Vision: Monthly Missions and New FrontiersVarda's ultimate goal is to conduct space missions on a regular cadence, with plans to have quarterly launches through 2026 and the potential for monthly missions if the demand arises. Their focus remains on pharmaceuticals, particularly small molecule crystallization and biologics. Varda's platform is designed to make space accessible for drug development, offering new tools to researchers looking to solve problems that Earth's 1G environment cannot.Beyond the immediate applications, Varda's work represents a paradigm shift in how we think about drug development. As Mark pointed out, this technology could enable the creation of entirely new therapeutics that would be impossible under Earth's gravity. It's a thrilling prospect—one that could redefine the future of medicine and bring treatments manufactured in orbit into everyday healthcare.Final ThoughtsVarda's journey is not just about the technology—it's about opening up new possibilities for researchers and patients alike. As someone who grew up during the space age, I never imagined that some day, we could be receiving treatments that were made in space. This is just the beginning, and Varda is leading the way into a new era of drug manufacturing. This is a public episode.

With so much discussion about the eventual retirement of the International Space Station, a lot of attention is being paid to companies developing private space stations … and there are several. A new entrant in that arena is Joules Space Technology, LLC, an aerospace research and development company focused on making space more human-friendly. They specialize in artificial gravity and are developing a space station called Space Station EO. On this edition of The Ex Terra Podcast, Tom Patton talks with Jules Ross, founder and CEO of Joules Space Technology, which is developing the concept of an artificial gravity space station. The company hopes to be the first aerospace company to conquer NASA's five hazards of human spaceflight - Space Radiation, Isolation, Distance from Earth, Gravity Field, and Hostile/Closed Environment. Space Station EO ... for Earth One ... would solve those problems with private living quarters, an electromagnetic radiation shield, Earth simulation technology to give astronauts more of a feeling of home, and be a self-sustaining dual gravity platform for science and more. "Our platform has both environments on one platform. It has 1G and 0G. So now we can do our experiments in 1G and then do backup experiments in 0G, or vice versa," Ross said. "So the scientists and the experiment can be on the space station at the same time." Ross envisions a future where people of ordinary means can experience space in a safe and comfortable environment, and Space Station EO could be the first step in making that vision a reality.

It's been said that Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids, and that's certainly the assertion of the popular 2023 book, "A City on Mars" by Kelly and Zack Weinersmith. In fact, they question the future of settling humans off Earth in its entirety. Certainly, it will be challenging, but is it impossible? Are there reasons we should not go? We gathered together two of our favorite experts on the topic, Dale Skran, the COO and SVP of the National Space Society, and Mr. YouTube himself, Isaac Arthur—who has produced maybe 100 hours or more of well-regarded videos on the subject—to discuss the book and our prospects for rational, realistic space settlement plans. Join us! "A City on Mars" takes a skeptical and humorous look at space settlement, questioning our readiness for having children in space, building space farms, and creating independent space nations. Dale Skran wrote a comprehensive 40,000-word review of the book, acknowledging its depth while disagreeing with many of its conclusions. He believes the book represents the current stage of opposition to the increasingly realistic prospect of space settlement. The hosts discuss the potential benefits and resources available in space, with Dale and Isaac emphasizing the vast opportunities and the need for reasonable regulation to facilitate space development. The challenges of human reproduction in space are examined, with the hosts agreeing on the importance of further research and the need for artificial gravity experiments on space stations. The potential for conflict and war in space is explored, with Dale arguing that space settlements will likely be more resilient and less vulnerable than Earth-based cities due to their designed defenses against natural and artificial threats. The hosts critique the book's pessimistic view of space settlement and its suggestion to wait centuries until humanity has solved all its problems before venturing into space. They argue that space development and solving Earth's issues can and should happen concurrently. Dale Skran highlights an interesting idea from the book: the possibility of a dual life cycle for settlers, with reproduction occurring in 1G spin gravity settlements while adults spend much of their time working in low-gravity environments like the Moon or Mars.

HPR4125: Installing Home Assistant Operating System (HAOS), on a x86-64 machine

Introduction This is a follow up episode on Home Assistant (HA), see hpr4099 :: An introduction to Home Assistant (HA) for an explanation of what Home Assistant (HA) is, and why you might want to install it. The Home Assistant Installation page offers several different install methods, listed along with the level of difficulty. Easiest: Plug and play with Home Assistant Green Easy: DIY with Raspberry Pi Intermediate: Extend with Home Assistant Yellow Hard: Install on other hardware Expert: Advanced installation methods Today we will be installing Home Assistant Operating System (HAOS), on a x86-64 machine. Home Assistant can be repurposed and installed on various hardware, such as an Odroid or a generic x86-64 machine. The Home Assistant Operating System allows you to install Home Assistant on these devices even if you have little to no Linux experience. We are going to my HP t610 Flexible Thin Client, which has a 16GB SATA Flash Drive, and I upgraded it to 16G of Ram. Note that this will install Home Assistant Operating System (HAOS) as a computer appliance. That means that it will run a bare OS with the various components in a customised docker setup. It will take over the entire computer, and requires secure boot to be disabled. On the HP t610 Flexible Thin Client, that involves pressing "Esc" at boot to get to the bootup menu. If that doesn't work try pressing "F10" just after turning on the power. Two methods to install HAOS has no integrated installer like you would expect with distro hopping, but it requires that the image be burned directly onto the disk of the computer itself. It has two methods to do this and "Method 2: Installing HAOS directly from a boot medium", is basically take the disk out of the target system and attach it to your own computer. The use a burning tool like Balena Etcher, or dd to write the image to disk. Much as you would burn a sdcard for a raspberry pi. I don't have a way to do this so let's go with method 1. Method 1: Installing HAOS via Ubuntu booting from a USB flash drive Here you download and burn live operating system as you would if you were distro hopping, the document suggests to use Ubuntu. I tried it but my HP t610 Flexible Thin Client didn't like it. It also didn't like Fedora despite having worked earlier, so I just used Debian LXQT. https://www.debian.org/download https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current-live/amd64/iso-hybrid/debian-live-12.5.0-amd64-lxqt.iso Now you have Debian running off a usb stick on your target machine. Steps to burn Home Assistant Operating System (HAOS) to disk on target Anything after the '#' character is a comment and doesn't need to be typed. Note The following steps are optional, and you should only do them if you wish to ssh to the target machine from your pc. # Anything after the '#' charachter is a comment and doesn't need to be typed. apt install openssh-server # Install the ssh server on the target systemctl start ssh # Start it once installed passwd user # Change the password or you can just use the default which is `live` ip add # Get the IP address of the target ssh user@ip.of.the.computer # Replace ip.of.the.computer with the actual ip address in the step above Open a terminal on the machine, and type the su - commands to get root access on the Debian OS running from the usb drive on the target machine. user@debian:~$ su - Password: root@debian:~# Now you are root, the super user admin, you can install the wget command using the Debian apt package manager. root@debian:~# apt install wget Once wget is installed, we can use it to download the latest image from the HAOS Download Page, which is haos_generic-x86-64-12.1.img.xz at time of writing. root@debian:~# wget https://github.com/home-assistant/operating-system/releases/download/12.1/haos_generic-x86-64-12.1.img.xz Now we have the image we are going to write to the disk, but the question is which disk to write it to. Your target PC will be different to mine but the tool lsblk is good for showing what is installed and mounted. root@debian:~# lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTS loop0 7:0 0 2.5G 1 loop /usr/lib/live/mount/rootfs/filesystem.squashfs /run/live/rootfs/filesystem.squashfs sda 8:0 0 14.9G 0 disk ├─sda1 8:1 0 1M 0 part ├─sda2 8:2 0 1G 0 part └─sda3 8:3 0 13.9G 0 part sdb 8:16 1 58.6G 0 disk ├─sdb1 8:17 1 3G 0 part /usr/lib/live/mount/medium │ /run/live/medium └─sdb2 8:18 1 5M 0 part The loop0 is the mount where Debian is running from, while the mounted sdb1 and sdb2 have the word live telling us that's the actual USB drive we installed Debian on to. While your disk will be different, for me the disk to install it on is sda. The partitions sda1, sda2, and sda3 are left overs from a previous install. They will be overwritten anyway. The drive I will be targeting is therefore known to the system as /dev/sda The dd command will do a disk duplication and writes the ones and zeros from the if input file, to the of output file. The command below will take a while and not display anything root@debian:~# dd if=haos_generic-x86-64-12.1.img.xz of=/dev/sda 761949+1 records in 761949+1 records out 390118272 bytes (390 MB, 372 MiB) copied, 66.3225 s, 5.9 MB/s Plug in an Ethernet cable that is connected to the network. Power the system on. If you have a screen connected to the Generic x86-64 system, after a minute or so the Home Assistant welcome banner will appear in the console. In the browser of your desktop system, within a few minutes you will be able to reach your new Home Assistant at homeassistant.local:8123.

Welcome to your weekly news update, we have 3 stories for you this week, Phase One releases 128 MP survey camera, Aloft expanding to AAM, new waivers course and our Black Friday sale is now live! Phase One has released the P5 Survey Payload, coming in at 700 grams. The P5 has an electronic global shutter capable of capturing four frames per second at 128MP. The P5 also comes with a 1G ethernet connection port, 14 pin JST-ZE, and MAVLink/Auterion connections. Two lens options are available, with a 35mm and an 80mm lens. With the 35mm lens, the ground sampling distance at 394 feet (120m) is 1.16cm, or 0.45 inches. Using this information and working backwards through a GSD calculator, we estimate this means with the 80mm lens, from 120m would be 0.51cm. Pretty awesome new camera for those in the surveying field! Next up this week is Aloft, who is combining low altitude monitoring of UAS and AAM. The Project, called the North Texas Airspace Awareness Project, hopes to basically create a dashboard of low altitude aircraft operations specifically around UAS and AAM. This dashboard will allow local municipalities to publish and disseminate localized safety advisories for certain types of users such as governmental users, commercial, and recreational. Additionally, this will allow a direct connection between operators of both AAM and UAS and the local governments to share information such as local rules. If you're unfamiliar with Aloft, they are the largest UAS Service Supplier of LAANC and the current maintainer of the FAA's B4UFLY. Aloft provides 80% of all UAS airspace authorizations in the US. We'll keep you updated if we see more about this project. Last up this week is our Black Friday Sale, which is now live! All of our catalog of courses is currently on sale for up to 50% off! This is our largest sale of the year and as usual, all of our courses are on sale for the lowest price of the year! We also JUST released a new paid course for drones on how to apply for waivers! The course includes information on the process, supporting documents, what the FAA wants to know, where to submit, and what to do after you get your waiver! That's it! Have a great week and we'll see you on Monday for the live event! https://dronexl.co/2023/11/15/phase-one-p5-survey-payload-drone-camera/ https://www.nctcog.org/getmedia/63742e52-4c0e-40c2-97c8-3ec7bb63a28c/North-Texas-Airspace-Awareness-Pilot-Program.pdf https://www.aloft.ai/blog/aloft-selected-for-pioneering-north-texas-airspace-awareness-project-leading-the-way-in-advanced-air-mobility/

Mūsu ikdiena ir piesātināta ar dažādām elektroniskām ierīcēm, bez kurām pat nevaram iedomāties pilnvērtīgu ikdienu. Taču ne vienu vien satrauc, vai šīs daudzās un dažādās ierīces rada kādu ietekmi uz mūsu veselību. Pēc klausītāju lūguma skaidrojam, kā veidojas elektromagnētiskais starojumu, kāda ir mūsu dzīve līdzās dažādām ierīcēm un ko pētījumi saka par elektronisko iekārtu kaitīgumu. Stāsta Latvijas Elektronikas iekārtu testēšanas centra tehniskais direktors Gundars Ašmanis un Rīgas Stradiņa universitātes Darba drošības un vides veselības institūta direktors Ivars Vanadziņš. Gundars Ašmanis norāda, ka ir vietas, kur elektromagnētiskā lauka nav. Mēs varam arī izbēgt no Zemes elektromagnētiskā lauka. No elektromagnētiskā spektra mēs varam izbēgt telpās, kuras ir ekranētas. "Rīgas Tehniskajā universitātē, Latvijas Elektronikas iekārtu testēšanas centrā šāda telpa ir, kurā mēs ieejam, aizveram durvis, mums nav ne 1G, ne 2G, ne 5G. Nedzirdam radio, mums nav televīzijas, mēs esam atslēgti no apkārtējās vides komunikācijas ziņā. Arī valdībai vajadzētu būt slepenām šādām telpām,  katrā ziņā NATO sarunas notiek šādās telpās, lai nevarētu noklausīties, ja nu kādam ir līdzi raidītājs, tad lai šī enerģija neizspruktu ārā, nevarētu noklausīties," skaidro Gundars Ašmanis. Runājot par elektromagnētisko lauku mums apkārt, Ivars Vanadziņš norāda, izņemot šīs specifiskās zonas, vienmēr esam bijuši pakļauti tā ietekmei. Lielais daudzums dažādu elektroierīču ir jaunums. Tajā pašā laikā, vērtējot ikdienas elektroierīču radīto fonu, viņš atzīst, ka būtiskas ietekmes veselībai nav. "No veselības viedokļa faktiski tie elektroniskie lauki, es lietošu vārdu lauki, tas izstarošanas avots pie viņa ir kaut kāda zināma viena jauda, bet viņi ārkārtīgi labi un strauji dzēšas un samazinās. Pietiek ar metru vai diviem, nesēdēt virsū tieši raidītājam, metru vai divus tālāk, pat ja rādītājs gana spēcīgs, būtībā mēs runājam par 5%, 10 procentiem, kaut kādu stipri zemāku intensitāti. Līdz ar to, ja mēs esam tādā normālā vidē, kur ir ievērotas kaut kādas tehniskās prasības, faktiski ir ārkārtīgi maz tādu vietu, kur tie līmeņi ir tādi, kas radītu būtisku ietekmi uz veselību," norāda Ivars Vanadziņš. Viņš arī min, ka ierīču ražotāji nepārtraukti pilnveido standartus, lai dažādas ikdienas ierīces neradītu kaitējumu cilvēku veselībai un būtu patērētājiem droši. "Ja mēs lietojam ierīces atbilstoši to mērķim, viņas ir ražotas atbilstoši tehniskajiem standartiem un ir darba kārtībā, mēs nedarām kaut kādas pilnīgi totālas, vājprātīgas muļķības, tad faktiski pameta bažām īsti nav. Es gribētu teikt, ka mums nav ļoti daudz, bet ir simtos dažādu mērījumu, specifiski vairāk darbavietās, jo tās koncentrācijas mēdz būt augstāks, mums faktiski nav neviens mērījums Latvijā, kas būtu pārsniedzis to, kas medicīnā būtu kaut kas būtu traktēta kā tāda bīstamā ekspozīcijas darbības vērtība," atzīst Ivars Vanadziņš.

Phenotype Approach IDs Rare ATR Variants as Potential Male Breast Cancer Susceptibility Alleles

PRESS RELEASE - A new research paper was published in Oncotarget's Volume 14 on February 7, 2023, entitled, “The ‘extreme phenotype approach' applied to male breast cancer allows the identification of rare variants of ATR as potential breast cancer susceptibility alleles.” In oncogenetics, some patients could be considered as “extreme phenotypes”, such as those with very early onset presentation or multiple primary malignancies, unusually high numbers of cancers of the same spectrum or rare cancer types in the same parental branch. For these cases, a genetic predisposition is very likely, but classical candidate gene panel analyses often, and frustratingly, remains negative. In this new study, researchers Martin Chevarin, Diana Alcantara, Juliette Albuisson, Marie-Agnès Collonge-Rame, Céline Populaire, Zohair Selmani, Amandine Baurand, Caroline Sawka, Geoffrey Bertolone, Patrick Callier, Yannis Duffourd, Philippe Jonveaux, Yves-Jean Bignon, Isabelle Coupier, François Cornelis, Christophe Cordier, Monique Mozelle-Nivoix, Jean-Baptiste Rivière, Paul Kuentz, Christel Thauvin, Romain Boidot, François Ghiringhelli, Marc O'Driscoll, Laurence Faivre, and Sophie Nambot from Université de Bourgogne, CHU Dijon Bourgogne, CHU Besançon, University of Sussex, Centre Georges François Leclerc, Université de Bourgogne-Franche Comté, Hôpitaux de Brabois, Centre Jean Perrin, ICM Val d'Aurel, Université Bordeaux, CHU de Bordeaux, CHRU de Strasbourg, and CHU-Reims used a combination of exome sequencing (ES), direct sequencing of Ataxia Telangiectasia and RAD3-related (ATR) in a replication cohort and prospective screening, followed by functional investigations, to report the identification of new candidate variants of ATR as predisposing to breast cancer (BC), including male breast cancer (MBC). “In the framework of the EX2TRICAN project, exploring unresolved extreme cancer phenotypes, we applied exome sequencing on rare familial cases with male breast cancer, identifying a novel pathogenic variant of ATR (p.Leu1808*).” ATR has already been suspected as being a predisposing gene to breast cancer in women. The researchers next identified 3 additional ATR variants in a cohort of both male and female with early onset and familial breast cancers (c.7762-2A>C; c.2078+1G>A; c.1A>G). Further molecular and cellular investigations showed impacts on transcripts for variants affecting splicing sites and reduction of ATR expression and phosphorylation of the ATR substrate CHEK1. This work further demonstrates the interest of an extended genetic analysis such as exome sequencing to identify very rare variants that can play a role in cancer predisposition in extreme phenotype cancer cases unexplained by classical cancer gene panels testing. “In conclusion, this work highlights the possible implication of ATR variants in male and female BC predisposition and shows the importance of extended genetic analysis in unsolved extreme phenotype cancer cases to identify rare alleles of biologically relevant candidate genes of cancer predisposition.” DOI: https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.28358 Correspondence to: Sophie Nambot - sophie.nambot@chu-dijon.fr Keywords: male breast cancer, genetic predisposition to cancer, exome sequencing, ATR, extreme phenotype

Lars Magnus Ericsson was working for the Swedish government that made telegraph equipment in the 1870s when he started a little telegraph repair shop in 1976. That was the same year the telephone was invented. After fixing other people's telegraphs and then telephones he started a company making his own telephone equipment. He started making his own equipment and by the 1890s was shipping gear to the UK. As the roaring 20s came, they sold stock to buy other companies and expanded quickly. Early mobile devices used radios to connect mobile phones to wired phone networks and following projects like ALOHANET in the 1970s they expanded to digitize communications, allowing for sending early forms of text messages, the way people might have sent those telegraphs when old Lars was still alive and kicking. At the time, the Swedish state-owned Televerket Radio was dabbling in this space and partnered with Ericsson to take first those messages then as email became a thing, email, to people wirelessly using the 400 to 450 MHz range in Europe and 900 MHz in the US. That standard went to the OSI and became a 1G wireless packet switching network we call Mobitex. Mike Lazaridis was born in Istanbul and moved to Canada in 1966 when he was five, attending the University of Waterloo in 1979. He dropped out of school to take a contract with General Motors to build a networked computer display in 1984. He took out a loan from his parents, got a grant from the Canadian government, and recruited another electrical engineering student, Doug Fregin from the University of Windsor, who designed the first circuit boards. to join him starting a company they called Research in Motion. Mike Barnstijn joined them and they were off to do research.  After a few years doing research projects, they managed to build up a dozen employees and a million in revenues. They became the first Mobitex provider in America and by 1991 shipped the first Mobitex device. They brought in James Balsillie as co-CEO, to handle corporate finance and business development in 1992, a partnership between co-CEOs that would prove fruitful for 20 years.  Some of those work-for-hire projects they'd done involved reading bar codes so they started with point-of-sale, enabling mobile payments and by 1993 shipped RIMGate, a gateway for Mobitex. Then a Mobitex point-of-sale terminal and finally with the establishment of the PCMCIA standard, a  PCMCIP Mobitex modem they called Freedom. Two-way paging had already become a thing and they were ready to venture out of PoS systems. So  in 1995, they took a $5 million investment to develop the RIM 900 OEM radio modem. They also developed a pager they called the Inter@ctive Pager 900 that was capable of  two-way messaging the next year. Then they went public on the Toronto Stock Exchange in 1997. The next year, they sold a licensing deal to IBM for the 900 for $10M dollars. That IBM mark of approval is always a sign that a company is ready to play in an enterprise market. And enterprises increasingly wanted to keep executives just a quick two-way page away. But everyone knew there was a technology convergence on the way. They worked with Ericsson to further the technology and over the next few years competed with SkyTel in the interactive pager market. Enter The Blackberry They knew there was something new coming. Just as the founders know something is coming in Quantum Computing and run a fund for that now. They hired a marketing firm called Lexicon Branding to come up with a name and after they saw the keys on the now-iconic keyboard, the marketing firm suggested BlackBerry. They'd done the research and development and they thought they had a product that was special. So they released the first BlackBerry 850 in Munich in 1999. But those were still using radio networks and more specifically the DataTAC network. The age of mobility was imminent, although we didn't call it that yet. Handspring and Palm each went public in 2000.  In 2000, Research In Motion brought its first cellular phone product in the BlackBerry 957, with push email and internet capability. But then came the dot com bubble. Some thought the Internet might have been a fad and in fact might disappear. But instead the world was actually ready for that mobile convergence. Part of that was developing a great operating system for the time when they released the BlackBerry OS the year before. And in 2000 the BlackBerry was named Product of the Year by InfoWorld.  The new devices took the market by storm and shattered the previous personal information manager market, with shares of that Palm company dropping by over 90% and Palm OS being setup as it's own corporation within a couple of years. People were increasingly glued to their email. While the BlackBerry could do web browsing and faxing over the internet, it was really the integrated email access, phone, and text messaging platform that companies like General Magic had been working on as far back as the early 1990s. The Rise of the BlackBerry The BlackBerry was finally the breakthrough mobile product everyone had been expecting and waiting for. Enterprise-level security, integration with business email like Microsoft's Exchange Server, a QWERTY keyboard that most had grown accustomed to, the option to use a stylus, and a simple menu made the product an instant smash success. And by instant we mean after five years of research and development and a massive financial investment. The Palm owned the PDA market. But the VII cost $599 and the BlackBerry cost $399 at the time (which was far less than the $675 Inter@ctive Pager had cost in the 1990s). The Palm also let us know when we had new messages using the emerging concept of push notifications. 2000 had seen the second version of the BlackBerry OS and their AOL Mobile Communicator had helped them spread the message that the wealthy could have access to their data any time. But by 2001 other carriers were signing on to support devices and BlackBerry was selling bigger and bigger contracts. 5,000 devices, 50,000 devices, 100,000 devices. And a company called Kasten Chase stepped in to develop a secure wireless interface to the Defense Messaging System in the US, which opened up another potential two million people in the defense industry They expanded the service to cover more and more geographies in 2001 and revenues doubled, jumping to 164,000 subscribers by the end of the year. That's when they added wireless downloads so could access all those MIME attachments in email and display them. Finally, reading PDFs on a phone with the help of GoAmerica Communications! And somehow they won a patent for the idea that a single email address could be used on both a mobile device and a desktop. I guess the patent office didn't understand why IMAP  was invented by Mark Crispin at Stanford in the 80s, or why Exchange allowed multiple devices access to the same mailbox. They kept inking contracts with other companies. AT&T added the BlackBerry in 2002 in the era of GSM. The 5810 was the first truly convergent BlackBerry that offered email and a phone in one device with seamless SMS communications. It shipped in the US and the 5820 in Europe and Cingular Wireless jumped on board in the US and Deutsche Telekom in Germany, as well as Vivendi in France, Telecom Italia in Italy, etc. The devices had inched back up to around $500 with service fees ranging from $40 to $100 plus pretty limited data plans. The Tree came out that year but while it was cool and provided a familiar interface to the legions of Palm users, it was clunky and had less options for securing communications. The NSA signed on and by the end of the year they were a truly global operation, raking in revenues of nearly $300 million.  The Buying Torndado They added web-based application in 2003, as well as network printing. They moved to a Java-based interface and added the 6500 series, adding a walkie-talkie function. But that 6200 series at around $200 turned out to be huge. This is when they went into that thing a lot of companies do - they started suing companies like Good and Handspring for infringing on patents they probably never should have been awarded. They eventually lost the cases and paid out tens of millions of dollars in damages. More importantly they took their eyes off innovating, a common mistake in the history of computing companies. Yet there were innovations. They released Blackberry Enterprise Server in 2004 then bolted on connectors to Exchange, Lotus Domino, and allowed for interfacing with XML-based APIs in popular enterprise toolchains of the day. They also later added support for GroupWise. That was one of the last solutions that worked with symmetric key cryptography I can remember using and initially required the devices be cradled to get the necessary keys to secure communications, which then worked over Triple-DES, common at the time. One thing we never liked was that messages did end up living at Research in Motion, even if encrypted at the time. This is one aspect that future types of push communications would resolve. And Microsoft Exchange's ActiveSync.  By 2005 there were CVEs filed for BlackBerry Enterprise Server, racking up 17 in the six years that product shipped up to 5.0 in 2010 before becoming BES 10 and much later Blackberry Enterprise Mobility Management, a cross-platform mobile device management solution. Those BES 4 and 5 support contracts, or T-Support, could cost hundreds of dollars per incident. Microsoft had Windows Mobile clients out that integrated pretty seamlessly with Exchange. But people loved their Blackberries. Other device manufacturers experimented with different modes of interactivity. Microsoft made APIs for pens and keyboards that flipped open. BlackBerry added a trackball in 2006, that was always kind of clunky. Nokia, Ericsson, Motorola, and others were experimenting with new ways to navigate devices, but people were used to menus and even styluses. And they seemed to prefer a look and feel that seemed like what they used for the menuing control systems on HVAC controls, video games, and even the iPod.  The Eye Of The Storm A new paradigm was on the way. Apple's iPhone was released in 2007 and Google's Android OS in 2008. By then the BlackBerry Pearl was shipping and it was clear which devices were better. No one saw the two biggest threats coming. Apple was a consumer company. They were slow to add ActiveSync policies, which many thought would be the corporate answer to mobile management as group policies in Active Directory had become for desktops. Apple  and Google were slow to take the market, as BlackBerry continued to dominate the smartphone industry well into 2010, especially once then-president Barack Obama strong-armed the NSA into allowing him to use a special version of the BlackBerry 8830 World Edition for official communiques. Other world leaders followed suit, as did the leaders of global companies that had previously been luddites when it came to constantly being online. Even Eric Schmidt, then chairman of google loved his Crackberry in 2013, 5 years after the arrival of Android. Looking back, we can see a steady rise in iPhone sales up to the iPhone 4, released in 2010. Many still said they loved the keyboard on their BlackBerries. Organizations had built BES into their networks and had policies dating back to NIST STIGs. Research in Motion owned the enterprise and held over half the US market and a fifth of the global market. That peaked in 2011. BlackBerry put mobility on the map. But companies like AirWatch, founded in 2003 and  MobileIron, founded in 2007, had risen to take a cross-platform approach to the device management aspect of mobile devices. We call them Unified Endpoint Protection products today and companies could suddenly support BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, and iPhones from a single console. Over 50 million Blackberries were being sold a year and the stock was soaring at over $230 a share.  Today, they hold no market share and their stock performance shows it. Even though they've pivoted to more of a device management company, given their decades of experience working with some of the biggest and most secure companies and governments in the world. The Fall Of The BlackBerry The iPhone was beautiful. It had amazing graphics and a full touch screen. It was the very symbol of innovation. The rising tide of the App Store also made it a developers playground (no pun intended). It was more expensive than the Blackberry, but while they didn't cater to the enterprise, they wedged their way in there with first executives and then anyone. Initially because of ActiveSync, which had come along in 1996 mostly to support Windows Mobile, but by Exchange Server 2003 SP 2 could do almost anything Outlook could do - provided software developers like Apple could make the clients work. So by 2011, Exchange clients could automatically locate a server based on an email address (or more to the point based on DNS records for the domain) and work just as webmail, which was open in almost every IIS implementation that worked with Exchange. And Office365 was released in 2011, paving the way to move from on-prem Exchange to what we now call “the cloud.” And Google Mail had been around for 7 years by then and people were putting it on the BlackBerry as well, blending home and office accounts on the same devices at times. In fact, Google licensed Exchange ActiveSync, or EAS in 2009 so support for Gmail was showing up on a variety of devices. BlackBerry had everything companies wanted. But people slowly moved to that new iPhone. Or Androids when decent models of phones started shipping with the OS on them. BlackBerry stuck by that keyboard, even though it was clear that people wanted full touchscreens. The BlackBerry Bold came out in 2009. BlackBerry had not just doubled down with the keyboard instead of full touchscreen, but they tripled down on it. They had released the Storm in 2008 and then the Storm in 2009 but they just had a different kind of customer. Albeit one that was slowly starting to retire. This is the hard thing about being in the buying tornado. We're so busy transacting that we can't think ahead to staying in the eye that we don't see how the world is changing outside of it.  As we saw with companies like Amdahl and Control Data, when we only focus on big customers and ignore the mass market we leave room for entrants in our industries who have more mass appeal. Since the rise of the independent software market following the IBM anti-trust cases, app developers have been a bellwether of successful platforms. And the iPhone revenue split was appealing to say the least.  Sales fell off fast. By 2012, the BlackBerry represented less than 6 percent of smartphones sold and by the start of 2013 that number dropped in half, falling to less than 1 percent in 2014. That's when the White House tested replacements for the Blackberry. There was a small bump in sales when they finally released a product that had competitive specs to the iPhone, but it was shortly lived. The Crackberry craze was officially over.  BlackBerry shot into the mainstream and brought the smartphone with them. They made the devices secure and work seamlessly in corporate environments and for those who could pay money to run BES or BIS. They proved the market and then got stuck in the Innovator's Dilemna. They became all about features that big customers wanted and needed. And so they missed the personal part of personal computing. Apple, as they did with the PC and then graphical user interfaces saw a successful technology and made people salivate over it. They saw how Windows had built a better sandbox for developers and built the best app delivery mechanism the world has seen to date. Google followed suit and managed to take a much larger piece of the market with more competitive pricing.  There is so much we didn't discuss, like the short-lived Playbook tablet from BlackBerry. Or the Priv. Because for the most part, they a device management solution today. The founders are long gone, investing in the next wave of technology: Quantum Computing. The new face of BlackBerry is chasing device management, following adjacencies into security and dabbling in IoT for healthcare and finance. Big ticket types of buys that include red teaming to automotive management to XDR. Maybe their future is in the convergence of post-quantum security, or maybe we'll see their $5.5B market cap get tasty enough for one of those billionaires who really, really, really wants their chicklet keyboard back. Who knows but part of the fun of this is it's a living history.

Qualcomm is the world's largest fabless semiconductor designer. The name Qualcomm is a mashup of  Quality and Communications and communications has been a hallmark of the company since its founding. They began in satellite communications and today most every smartphone has a Qualcomm chip. The ubiquity of communications in our devices and everyday lives has allowed them a $182 billion market cap as of the time of this writing.  Qualcomm began with far humbler beginnings. They emerged out of a company called Linkabit in 1985. Linkabit was started by Irwin Jacobs, Leonard Kleinrock, and Andrew Viterbi - all three former graduate students at MIT.  Viterbi moved to California to take a job with JPL in Pasadena, where he worked on satellites. He then went off to UCLA where he developed what we now call the Viterti algorithm, for encoding and decoding digital communications. Jacobs worked on a book called Principles of Communication Engineering after getting his doctorate at MIT. Jacobs then took a year of leave to work at JPL after he met Viterbi in the early 1960s and the two hit it off. By 1966, Jacobs was a professor at the University of California, San Diego. Kleinrock was at UCLA by then and the three realized they had too many consulting efforts between them, but if they consolidated the request they could pool their resources. Eventually Jacobs and Viterbi left and Kleinrock got busy working on the first ARPANET node when it was installed at UCLA. Jerry Heller, Andrew Cohen, Klein Gilhousen, and James Dunn eventually moved into the area to work at Linkabit and by the 1970s Jacobs was back to help design telecommunications for satellites. They'd been working to refine the theories from Claude Shannon's time at MIT and Bell Labs and were some of the top names in the industry on the work. And the space race needed a lot of this type of work. They did their work on Scientific Data Systems computers in an era before that company was acquired by Xerox. Much as Claude Shannon got started thinking of data loss as it pertains to information theory while trying to send telegraphs over barbed wire, they refined that work thinking about sending images from mars to earth.  Others from MIT worked on other space projects as a part of missions. Many of those early employees were Viterbi's PhD students and they were joined by Joseph Odenwalder, who took Viterbi's decoding work and combined it with a previous dissertation out of MIT when he joined Linkabit. That got used in the Voyager space probes and put Linkabit on the map. They were hiring some of the top talent in digital communications and were able to promote not only being able to work with some of the top minds in the industry but also the fact that they were in beautiful San Diego, which appealed to many in the Boston or MIT communities during harsh winters. As solid state electronics got cheaper and the number of transistors more densely packed into those wafers, they were able to exploit the ability to make hardware and software for military applications by packing digital signal processors that had previously taken a Sigma from SDS into smaller and smaller form factors, like the Linkabit Microprocessor, which got Viterbi's algorithm for encoding data into a breadboard and a chip.  The work continued with defense contractors and suppliers. They built modulation and demodulation for UHF signals for military communications. That evolved into a Command Post Modem/Processor they sold, or CPM/P for short. They made modems for the military in the 1970s, some of which remained in production until the 1990s. And as they turned their way into the 1980s, they had more than $10 million in revenue.  The UC San Diego program grew in those years, and the Linkabit founders had more and more local talent to choose from. Linkabit developed tools to facilitate encoded communications over commercial satellites as well. They partnered with companies like IBM and developed smaller business units they were able to sell off. They also developed a tool they called VideoCipher to encode video, which HBO and others used to do what we later called scrambling on satellite signals. As we rounded the corner into the 1990s, though, they turned their attention to cellular services with TDMA (Time-Division Multiple Access), an early alternative to CDMA. Along the way, Linkabit got acquired by a company called MACOM in 1980 for $25 million. The founders liked that the acquirer was a fellow PhD from MIT and Linkabit stayed separate but grew quickly with the products they were introducing. As with most acquisitions, the culture changed and by 1985 the founders were gone. The VideoCipher and other units were sold off, spun off, or people just left and started new companies. Information theory was decades old at this point, plenty of academic papers had been published, and everyone who understood the industry knew that digital telecommunications was about to explode; a perfect storm for defections. Qualcomm Over the course of the next few years over two dozen companies were born as the alumni left and by 2003, 76 companies were founded by Linkabit alumni, including four who went public. One of the companies that emerged included the Linkabit founders Irwin Jacobs and Andrew Viterbi, Begun in 1985, Qualcomm is also based in San Diego. The founders had put information theory into practice at Linkabit and seen that the managers who were great at finance just weren't inspiring to scientists.  Qualcomm began with consulting and research, but this time looked for products to take to market. They merged with a company called Omninet and the two released the OmniTRACS satellite communication system for trucking and logistical companies. They landed Schneider National and a few other large customers and grew to over 600 employees in those first five years. It remained a Qualcomm subsidiary until recently. Even with tens of millions in revenue, they operated at a loss while researching what they knew would be the next big thing.  Code-Division Multiple Acces, or CDMA, is a technology that allows for sending information over multiple channels so users can share not just a single frequency of the radio band, but multiple frequencies without a lot of interference. The original research began all the way back in the 1930s when Dmitry Ageyev in the Soviet Union researched the theory of code division of signals at Leningrad Electrotechnical Institute of Communications. That work and was furthered during World War II by German researchers like Karl Küpfmüller and Americans like Claude Shannon, who focused more on the information theory of communication channels.  People like Lee Yuk-wing then took the cybernetics work from pioneers like Norbert Weiner and helped connect those with others like Qualcomm's Jacobs, a student of Yuk-wing's when he was a professor at MIT. They were already working on CDMA jamming in the early 1950s at MIT's Lincoln Lab. Another Russian named Leonid Kupriyanovich put the concept of CMDA into practice in the later 1950s so the Soviets could track people using a service they called Altai. That made it perfect for  perfect for tracking trucks and within a few years was released in 1965 as a pre-cellular radiotelephone network that got bridged to standard phone lines. The Linkabit and then Qualcomm engineers had worked closely with satellite engineers at JPL then Hughes and other defense then commercial contractors. They'd come in contact with work and built their own intellectual property for decades. Bell was working on mobile, or cellular technologies. Ameritech Mobile Communications, or Advanced Mobile Phone System (AMPS) as they were known at the time, launched the first 1G network in 1983 and Vodaphone launched their first service in the UK in 1984. Qualcomm filed their first patent for CDMA the next year.  That patent is one of the most cited documents in all of technology. Qualcomm worked closely with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the US and with industry consortiums, such as the CTIA, or Cellular Telephone Industries Association. Meanwhile Ericsson promoted the TDMA standard as they claimed it was more standard; however, Qualcomm worked on additional patents and got to the point that they licensed their technology to early cell phone providers like Ameritech, who was one of the first to switch from the TDMA standard Ericsson promoted to CDMA. Other carriers switched to CDMA as well, which gave them data to prove their technology worked. The OmniTRACS service helped with revenue, but they needed more. So they filed for an initial public offering in 1991 and raised over $500 billion in funding between then and 1995 when they sold another round of shares. By then, they had done the work to get CDMA encoding on a chip and it was time to go to the mass market. They made double what they raised back in just the first two years, reaching over $800 million in revenue in 1996.  Qualcomm and Cell Phones One of the reasons Qualcomm was able to raise so much money in two substantial rounds of public funding is that the test demonstrations were going so well. They deployed CDMA in San Diego, New York, Honk Kong, Los Angeles, and within just a few years had over a dozen carriers running substantial tests. The CTIA supported CDMA as a standard in 1993 and by 1995 they went from tests to commercial networks.  The standard grew in adoption from there. South Korea standardized on CDMA between 1993 to 116. The CDMA standard was embraced by Primeco in 1995, who used the 1900 MHz PCS band. This was a joint venture between a number of vendors including two former regional AT&T spin-offs from before the breakup of AT&T and represented interests from Cox Communications, Sprint, and turned out to be a large undertaking. It was also the largest cellular launch with services going live in 19 cities and the first phones were from a joint venture between Qualcomm and Sony. Most of PrimeCo's assets were later merged with AirTouch Cellular and the Bell Atlantic Mobile to form what we now know as Verizon Wireless.  Along the way, there were a few barriers to mass proliferation of the Qualcomm CDMA standards. One is that they made phones. The Qualcomm Q cost them a lot to manufacture and it was a market with a lot of competition who had cheaper manufacturing ecosystems. So Qualcomm sold the manufacturing business to Kyocera, who continued to license Qualcomm chips. Now they could shift all of their focus on encoding bits of data to be carried over multiple radio channels to do their part in paving the way for 2G and 3G networks with the chips that went into most phones of the era.  Qualcomm couldn't have built out a mass manufacturing ecosystem to supply the world with every phone needed in the 2G and 3G era. Nor could they make the chips that went in those phones. The mid and late 1990s saw them outsource then just license their patents and know-how to other companies. A quarter of a billion 3G subscribers across over a hundred carriers in dozens of countries. They got in front of what came after CDMA and worked on multiple other standards, including OFDMA, or Orthogonal frequency-Division Multiple Access. For those they developed the Qualcomm Flarion Flash-OFDM and 3GPP 5G NR, or New Radio. And of course a boatload of other innovative technologies and chips. Thus paving the way to have made Qualcomm instrumental in 5G and beyond.  This was really made possible by this hyper-specialization. Many of the same people who developed the encoding technology for the Voyager satellite decades prior helped pave the way for the mobile revolution. They ventured into manufacturing but as with many of the designers of technology and chips, chose to license the technology in massive cross-licensing deals. These deals are so big Apple sued Qualcomm recently for a billion in missed rebates. But there were changes happening in the technology industry that would shake up those licensing deals.  Broadcom was growing into a behemoth. Many of their designs sent from stand-alone chips to being a small part of a SoC, or system on a chip. Suddenly, cross-licensing the ARM gave Qualcomm the ability to make full SoCs.  Snapdragon has been the moniker of the current line of SoCs since 2007. Qualcomm has an ARM Architectural License and uses the ARM instruction set to create their own CPUs. The most recent incarnation is known as Krait. They also create their own Graphics Processor (GPU) and Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) known as Adreno and Hexagon. They recently acquired Arteris' technology and engineering group, and they used Arteris' Network on Chip (NoC) technology. Snapdragon chips can be found in the Samsung Galaxy, Vivo, Asus, and Xiaomi phones. Apple designs their own chips that are based on the ARM architecture, so in some ways compete with the Snapdragon, but still use Qualcomm modems like every other SoC. Qualcomm also bought a new patent portfolio from HP, including the Palm patents and others, so who knows what we'll find in the next chips - maybe a chip in a stylus.  Their slogan is "enabling the wireless industry," and they've certainly done that. From satellite communications that required a computer the size of a few refrigerators to battlefield communications to shipping trucks with tracking systems to cell towers, and now the full processor on a cell phone. They've been with us since the beginning of the mobile era and one has to wonder if the next few generations of mobile technology will involve satellites, so if Qualcomm will end up right back where they began: encoding bits of information theory into silicon.
