Dr. Sian Proctor grew up the daughter of a NASA hidden figure, with the stars in her sights until a pair of glasses at age fourteen seemed to close the door on her dream of becoming a military aviator. She kept reaching anyway, pursuing a career in geoscience and science communication, coming agonizingly close to NASA selection before receiving a rejection that sent her life in a different direction. In this episode, Dr. Sian Proctor talks about the long, winding road from that childhood dream to becoming the first Black woman to pilot a spacecraft; hitting a low point after a painful divorce; and the unexpected creative awakening that ultimately launched her to space. And once she got there, she did what she's always done: made art.

Bloomberg reported that SpaceX shares rose after a record IPO and were set to extend gains. The company operates both launch services and the Starlink satellite broadband network, supported by multi-year contracts with NASA and the U.S. Space Force. SpaceX executed ninety six orbital launches in 2023 and had more than five thousand Starlink satellites in orbit by mid 2024. A strong listing can reset valuation benchmarks for peers such as Rocket Lab, Iridium, and Viasat while influencing private competitors like Blue Origin and AST SpaceMobile. Founders should watch governance choices, employee liquidity, and lockup terms, along with regulatory requirements from the FAA and FCC. The aftermarket will inform how analysts model unit economics and how investors price capital-intensive growth in aerospace and adjacent industries.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

Decía Carl Sagan que somos polvo de estrellas. Una frase poética pero literal. Esos granos diminutos generados en el espacio interestelar acabaron aglutinándose para formar asteroides, lunas y planetas. Y en última instancia, la vida, al menos como la conocemos en la Tierra. Un equipo internacional, liderado por el CSIC, ha logrado simular la formación de ese polvo en laboratorio. Hemos hablado con José Ángel Martín Gago y Gonzalo Santoro, autores del estudio. -La NASA ha presentado a los cuatros astronautas que integrarán la misión Artemis III, prevista para 2027, con la presencia por primera vez de un miembro de la ESA, el italiano Luca Parmitano. Se trata de un vuelo de prueba de unas dos semanas en órbita terrestre que pondrá a prueba la capacidad de la nave Orión para acoplarse en el espacio con versiones de los módulos de aterrizaje que desarrollan Blue Origin y SpaceX. Durante años se ha creído que el sistema de orientación de las palomas se debía a receptores lumínicos en los ojos o a partículas magnéticas en el pico, pero como nos ha contado María González Dionis, un estudio sitúa la brújula de estas aves en el hígado. Con Lluís Montoliu hemos analizado el anuncio del Comité Olímpico Internacional de que solo las mujeres biológicas podrán competir en las pruebas femeninas de las olimpiadas y el polémico método genético que se empleará en la determinación del sexo de las deportistas. Jesús Pérez Gil nos ha hablado de una nueva familia de liposomas, capaces de transportar fármacos en su interior y liberarlos mediante un pequeño aumento de la temperatura. Y en nuestra sección Mujer y ciencia, Eulalia Pérez Sedeño nos ha acercado a la biografía de María Josefa Jiménez Cisneros, pionera de la arqueología clásica gaditana. Se interesó por los espacios artesanales romanos y la epigrafía sobre ánforas y elaboró la primera carta arqueológica de Cádiz. Escuchar audio

When Blue Origin's New Glenn spacecraft exploded in an enormous fireball during a ground test a couple weeks ago, it sent shockwaves not only through the air, but through NASA's timeline for the upcoming Artemis missions. It also came at an especially bad time for Jeff Bezos' rocket company—just days after it was awarded a slew of NASA contracts to deliver equipment to the moon. Blue Origin had also been expected to play a major role in the upcoming Artemis III and IV missions, but that's now more up in the air depending on how soon the company can rebuild its only launchpad. And with NASA's Artemis III crew announcement this week, Guest Host Jane Lindholm sits down with space reporters Ken Chang and Brendan Byrne to break it all down and what's next for the space program.

This week, Poll Hub examines the intersection of space exploration, private wealth, and public trust. SpaceX is preparing for a historic IPO that will make the company the most valuable in the world, at least for a time. It should also push Elon Musk's personal wealth to a level never seen before. The conversation goes beyond the stock market to ask what this moment says about concentrated wealth in America, the role billionaires (and now trillionaires) play in public life, and how Americans view the relationship between money, influence, and power. We also examine the future of the U.S. space program after Blue Origin's rocket explosion at Cape Canaveral. The setback comes at a critical time for NASA's Artemis program and raises broader questions about the country's reliance on private space companies like Blue Origin and SpaceX to reach the moon and, eventually, Mars. Public opinion shows that Americans remain proud of NASA and supportive of space exploration, but they are far less certain about whether private companies can deliver on ambitious timelines. The segment explores the tension between national pride, scientific ambition, and practical doubt. And, for the fun fact, we look at a poll from 2008 that asked about the price Americans would pay to see the stars. The spread from $1 to $20k is kinda amazing!

Today's Headlines: Iran shot down a US Army helicopter yesterday, the US responded with strikes on Iranian air defense systems, both crew members are stable, and stock futures dropped immediately — so the ceasefire is going great. Meanwhile, the World Cup starts tomorrow and the Trump administration is already making it a disaster: the best male referee in Africa was denied entry despite a valid visa, the Iraqi team's vice captain was detained for seven hours at O'Hare, the team photographer was turned away entirely, and Trump is preemptively blaming Europe for any Ebola outbreaks despite zero confirmed cases there. Meanwhile, the House voted to give ICE and Border Patrol $70 billion more for immigration enforcement — $38 billion to ICE, $26 billion to Border Patrol, and a breezy $5 billion for "unforeseen costs." Anthropic's cofounder published a blog post asking leading AI labs to consider pausing frontier AI development, comparing it to nuclear nonproliferation — the response was a collective "no," with some calling it self-serving given everyone's upcoming IPOs — and this comes as Anthropic is reportedly preparing to release Claude Fable 5, a model it deemed too dangerous for public release just six months ago. Epstein assistant Lesley Groff testified before the House Oversight Committee claiming she "never saw anything improper" after two decades of keeping Epstein's entire schedule, which the committee found highly inconsistent. Tom Steyer conceded the California governor's race, Trump kept pushing election fraud conspiracies about California to the point that a congressman reported a friend canceling their voter registration over Spencer Pratt, and Ken Paxton's own former impeachment attorney endorsed Democrat James Talarico in the Texas Senate race, saying Paxton is too focused on appeasing Trump to be a good senator. And finally, NASA announced the Artemis III crew of four astronauts who will orbit Earth practicing lunar lander docking in preparation for a 2028 moon landing — assuming Blue Origin delivers its lander on time, which is uncertain after one of its rockets exploded during a test.

Between budget battles, proposed grant rule changes, and an exploding Blue Origin rocket, there's a lot to cover in U.S. space policy right now. Jack Kiraly, The Planetary Society's director of government relations, joins host Sarah Al-Ahmed to walk through a cascade of developments affecting NASA and the broader U.S. science community, including a proposed rule change at the Office of Management and Budget that would hand control of federal research grant decisions to political appointees, bypassing the peer review process that has underpinned U.S. science for decades. Kiraly also discusses a major reorganization at NASA, a new competition for the management of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the fallout from the New Glenn explosion, and what it means for the future of Artemis. Plus, in What's Up, the names of the Artemis III crew are revealed.

Tras cinco décadas, la NASA ha puesto en marcha la primera misión tripulada del programa Artemis con el objetivo de orbitar alrededor de la Luna sin alunizar, como prueba para futuros aterrizajes y para preparar misiones a la superficie lunar. La misión está diseñada para validar la nave Orión, el cohete SLS y los sistemas de soporte vital en el entorno espacial, además de preparar, a más largo plazo, un posible viaje a Marte. La misión supone un paso clave para demostrar que la infraestructura del programa Artemis puede llevar humanos de forma segura más lejos que nunca y preparar una presencia sostenible en la Luna. Es la primera misión tripulada a la Luna desde el Apolo 17 de 1972. El regreso humano a la órbita lunar significa mucho más que “volver a la Luna”: es una prueba de que la exploración tripulada más allá de la órbita terrestre baja vuelve a ser posible y útil. Representa un salto técnico y simbólico: técnicamente, permite comprobar la nave, las comunicaciones, la protección frente a radiación y el control de la misión en condiciones reales; simbólicamente, recupera una capacidad que la humanidad no ejercía desde hace más de 50 años. No se trata de repetir Apolo: ahora el objetivo es construir continuidad. La misión está pensada para generar datos, imágenes y experiencia operativa que ayuden a decidir dónde y cómo volver a la superficie lunar de forma más durable. Es importante porque la órbita lunar es una “zona de pruebas” estratégica entre la Tierra y la Luna. Desde ahí se ensayan trayectorias, se estudia el entorno espacial y se prepara la infraestructura que hará posibles bases, ciencia y exploración a largo plazo. La principal diferencia tecnológica es que Orión está pensada para operar como una nave digital y modular para el espacio profundo, mientras que Apolo era una cápsula analógica diseñada con la electrónica y la computación de los años 60. Orión incorpora sistemas modernos de soporte vital, navegación, comunicaciones con la Red del Espacio Profundo y una arquitectura preparada para misiones más largas y seguras. Apolo fue creada para llevar tres astronautas a la Luna con tecnología de computación muy limitada y fuerte dependencia del control manual y de tierra. Orión, en cambio, integra software y automatización más avanzados, una cabina más habitable y sistemas pensados para probar operaciones de proximidad, retorno libre y vuelos de larga duración. Orión mejora mucho el soporte vital: la NASA destaca que Artemis II sirve para comprobar que sus sistemas críticos pueden mantener a la tripulación en misiones de mayor duración. Eso incluye control de aire respirable, eliminación de dióxido de carbono y vapor de agua, y validación del comportamiento de la nave durante ejercicio y sueño, algo mucho más exigente que en Apolo. Apolo dependía de sistemas de guía menos potentes y de una red de seguimiento más limitada. Orión usa navegación y comunicaciones diseñadas para el espacio profundo. Aporta seguimiento de trayectoria, correcciones de rumbo, telemetría y comunicaciones de voz y vídeo. Sin esa red, la nave perdería precisión y la tripulación quedaría con menos apoyo en momentos críticos, especialmente durante maniobras cerca de la Luna. Orión puede gestionar navegación, orientación, control de sistemas de a bordo y muchas secuencias de misión con mayor autonomía que Apolo. Eso baja la carga de trabajo de la tripulación y ayuda a manejar mejor situaciones rutinarias o repetitivas. Apolo funcionaba con sistemas mayoritariamente analógicos y con una automatización mucho más limitada. Por eso los astronautas tenían que tomar decisiones y realizar correcciones con más intervención directa, especialmente en fases críticas de vuelo. La diferencia no es “máquina contra humano”, sino “máquina asistiendo al humano”. Orión está diseñada para que la automatización sostenga las operaciones normales, mientras la tripulación conserva autoridad para intervenir si hay una anomalía, una corrección de trayectoria o una maniobra delicada. La computadora de guiado Apollo tenía limitaciones claras ante fallos de software: su capacidad era muy baja, así que cualquier consumo extra de ciclos podía saturarla, y aun así estaba diseñada con prioridades para proteger las tareas críticas. En Apolo 11, por ejemplo, las alarmas 1201 y 1202 aparecieron por sobrecarga, pero el sistema pudo recuperarse porque descartó tareas no esenciales y mantuvo el guiado básico. El AGC trabajaba con muy poca memoria y un procesador modesto, así que no podía “absorber” muchos errores a la vez. Cuando el software o los periféricos generaban demasiada carga, el ordenador entraba en estado de alarma o reinicio, y eso dejaba muy poco margen para corregir problemas complejos en tiempo real. Su punto fuerte no era evitar todos los fallos, sino recuperarse de algunos de ellos. Tenía control de prioridades, podía reiniciar sin perder la memoria crítica y estaba pensado para seguir ejecutando las tareas esenciales incluso si otras fallaban o se bloqueaban. El problema era que, si el fallo afectaba a una función crítica o se repetía demasiado, la tripulación podía quedarse con una máquina muy limitada y con poco tiempo para reaccionar. En Orión, la intervención manual está pensada como respaldo y supervisión, no como modo principal de vuelo. La tripulación puede tomar el control cuando una secuencia automática no encaja con la situación real, cuando hay una anomalía o cuando se necesita ejecutar una maniobra delicada con criterio humano. Si falla el computador principal durante una reentrada, el procedimiento real suele ser pasar a control de respaldo y ejecutar la secuencia de reentrada con ayuda de la tripulación y del software redundante, no “pilotarla a ciegas” con una sola computadora. En Orión, la arquitectura está pensada para degradarse con seguridad, así que la intervención manual existe precisamente para recuperar control si la automatización principal deja de responder. En Artemis II se ha tenido en cuenta lo cotidiano dentro de una nave lunar: la comida consiste en tortillas en lugar de pan para evitar migas flotando en microgravedad y la tripulación usa toallitas, jabón sin aclarado y champú seco o de enjuague mínimo. El lanzamiento tuvo lugar el 1 de abril. La misión tuvo una duración de 10 días y llevó a la tripulación más lejos de la Tierra que cualquier misión tripulada anterior (rompiendo el récord del Apolo 13), reingresando en la atmósfera terrestre a una velocidad récord de aproximadamente 40.000 km/h. Artemis III es la misión tripulada prevista por la NASA dentro del programa Artemis, cuyo objetivo inicial era llevar a astronautas a la Luna, pero que ahora la NASA describe como una prueba de encuentro y acoplamiento en órbita terrestre con módulos de aterrizaje lunares comerciales, cuyo lanzamiento está previsto para 2027. La NASA afirma que la misión llevará a cuatro astronautas a bordo de la cápsula Orión, lanzada desde el Centro Espacial Kennedy a bordo del cohete SLS, y pondrá a prueba el acoplamiento con uno o ambos módulos de aterrizaje de SpaceX y Blue Origin. Los planes iniciales se centraban en un alunizaje en el Polo Sur de la Luna, pero la NASA actualizó la arquitectura de la misión a principios de 2026 para que el primer alunizaje de Artemis tuviera lugar, en su lugar, en la misión Artemis IV. Artemis IV es la cuarta misión planificada del programa Artemis de la NASA y, con el plan actual, será la primera misión del programa en llevar astronautas a la superficie lunar desde Apolo 17. La fecha objetivo más reciente es principios de 2028. La misión llevará a cuatro astronautas en Orión, lanzados por el SLS desde el Centro Espacial Kennedy, hasta la órbita lunar. Allí, dos tripulantes descenderán a la Luna, pasarán aproximadamente una semana en la región del polo sur y luego volverán a Orión para regresar a la Tierra.

Først var det Starship V3, der ikke helt havde held med den planlagte landing, og en uge senere eksploderede Blue Origin's New Glenn-raket i en kæmpe ildkugle under en test. Vi skal også høre om kolossale supernovaeksplosioner, og om nogle meget tidlige sorte huller, der er væsentlig større end de burde være, i forhold til deres galakser. Lyt med

Blue Origin's latest rocket test ended in what the company called "an anomaly" — and what everyone else would call an explosion. Reed Albergotti (Semafor) explains why blowing things up is just part of the process and why the US Space Program is probably going to be fine. Then, Kyle Chayka (The New Yorker) pulls back the curtain on the shadow market for pre-IPO equity in OpenAI, Anthropic, and SpaceX. It’s a mania where people are willing to take pre-IPO stock as payment for $2.9M houses. It's frothy out there. Finally, Taylor Lorenz (User Mag) digs into the concept of a ‘permanent underclass’ — the fear that letting AI run rampant could freeze everyone in their current economic position forever.

Unlike traditional battleships, it emphasizes hypersonic attack and laser weaponry. The ship would be highly survivable, defended by Space Force overwatch and advanced electromagnetic warfare techniques.(3) Steve Yates examines the KMT leader's visit to Washington following meetings with Xi Jinping. He expresses concern over the KMT cutting Taiwan's indigenous defense budget. Yates also analyzes Taiwan's "inverted triangle" demographics, where older voters remain more sympathetic to traditional KMT narratives than younger generations.(4) Steve Yates argues the "Thucydides trap" is a manufactured academic concept used by Beijing to suggest inevitable US decline. He emphasizes that the US is not a classical empire and remains globally influential. China uses this rhetoric for political warfare while remaining sensitive to American strength.(5) Michael Bernstam analyzes the humiliating Ukrainian strike on a St. Petersburg oil terminal during Putin's flagship economic forum. Russia's energy sector faces a crisis, forcing a ban on refined exports like gasoline due to refinery damage. Consequently, Russia must increase crude exports to China and India.(6) Michael Bernstam notes the OECD's warning of global recession if the Gulf energy crisis persists. While the US is depleting strategic reserves to maintain supply, it is also increasing domestic production. High prices are triggering "demand destruction," where consumers shift to public transport to mitigate energy costs.(7) Bob Zimmerman reports that Blue Origin's CEO expects to resume launches this year despite a recent launchpad explosion. Meanwhile, SpaceX secured $6 billion in Space Force contracts for tracking and communication satellites. China continues rapid development with its Long March 12B, a Falcon 9-style reusable rocket copycat.(8) Bob Zimmerman highlights Curiosity rover data confirming Gale Crater's shifting climate, which once supported warm water. The James Webb Space Telescope detected high methane levels on the interstellar comet 3I/Atlas, suggesting a unique chemical composition. Webb also captured a spectacular infrared image of the galaxy M77.(9) Jonathan Schanzer describes the "ceasefire war" in the Middle East, where Iran continues attacks despite diplomatic efforts. He argues Iran aims to detach Gulf allies like Kuwait from the West. Schanzer advocates for maximum economic pressure on Tehran and increased IDF activity against Iranian proxies.(10) Jonathan Schanzer reports that Israeli forces have reduced Hamas control in Gaza to roughly 40%, aiming for 30%. Hamas is currently trapped in an Israeli "yellow zone" kill zone, making rearmament or offensive operations nearly impossible. Schanzer believes systematic military pressure is creating a viable theory of victory.(11) Titus Techera critiques the evolution of Animal Farm films, noting the newest version depicts Silicon Valley and AI as villains. He argues this shift denatures Orwell's original anti-totalitarian message for modern ideological purposes. The 1954 version remains the most effective educational tool regarding the dangers of tyranny.(12) Gordon Chang asserts that China is a declining power facing economic stagnation and a massive demographic collapse. He notes that the US economy remains superior, particularly in energy and AI. China's youth unemployment is estimated at 35-40%, forcing university graduates into menial roles like shepherding.(13) Jack Burnham discusses how Nvidia chips reach the Chinese military through loopholes in export controls and subsidiaries. He notes bureaucratic confusion over the "AI diffusion rule" allowed Chinese firms to stockpile high-end hardware. Burnham recommends stricter Commerce Department guidance to prevent further military modernization.(14) Jack Burnham explains that Volvo, though manufacturing in the US, is owned by Geely and must comply with Chinese data-sharing laws. He also warns of China's dominance in the biotechnology supply chain. Through state subsidies and "dumping," China threatens the security of US pharmaceutical and generic drug stockpiles.(15) Ryan Streeter honors economist Ed Phelps, who defined dynamism as a culture of grassroots tinkering and indigenous innovation. He explains that growth is driven by experimental mindsets rather than just scientific labs. Streeter notes that dynamic cultures, like Austin or California, naturally attract global risk-takers.(16) Ryan Streeter discusses human flourishing, defining it as the fulfillment of potential through purpose and upward mobility. He argues that dynamic societies improve job satisfaction for hourly workers by providing more options. Conversely, stagnation in Europe results from heavy regulation and a declining cultural valuation of entrepreneurs.One naming consistency flag: segment (15) uses "Ed Phelps" while your earlier preview blurb and outreach email today used "Edmund Phelps." Both are correct—Ed is the informal—but if you want consistency across the day's broadcast, I can swap to Edmund Phelps.

What are we really trying to escape from?In this episode of Girls Gone Gritty, Farley and Jennifer talk about escapism, from movie nights and travel dreams to social media, remote work, influencer culture, gaming, AI, and the quiet pull to disappear from everyday pressure. They explore why people are craving a different kind of life, especially in a world where everyone else's highlight reel can make your own routine feel small or stuck. The conversation also looks at the difference between healthy escape, like reading, exercising, watching a movie, or spending time with loved ones, and unhealthy escape that becomes avoidance, financial risk, or disconnection. Listeners will walk away with a simple reminder: escaping is not always bad, but it matters what you are escaping from and whether it brings you back stronger or leaves you further away from real life. The episode ends with a moving Got Grit Award story about kindness, loneliness, and the power of helping someone feel seen.Episode Highlights:(0:00) Intro(0:58) Celebrating birthdays, milestones, and summer(2:38) Blue Origin, Starlink, and space competition(4:19) Tomato prices, tariffs, and grocery costs(5:37) Spielberg nostalgia and movie theater memories(7:31) Why escapism is everywhere right now(9:12) When influencer dreams become risky(10:50) Remote work and changing life expectations(12:33) The hidden reality behind influencer life(14:18) AI, gaming, and virtual escape(15:45) Healthy vs. unhealthy escapism(17:38) When distraction turns into avoidance(18:40) Escapism, loneliness, and depression(20:04) The Got Grit Award kindness story(24:13) Fragile lyrics and final reflection(25:48) OutroSend us Fan MailSupport the showFollow us:Web: https://girlsgonegritty.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/girlsgonegritty/More ways to find us: https://linktr.ee/girlsgonegritty

Several launch companies can help you. SpaceX, Rocket Lab, the Russians, the list goes on. But what about once you make it upstairs, then what? Impulse Space CEO and CTO Tom Mueller is building the next stage of our orbital economy. With its Mira and Helios spacecraft, we'll soon be able to take mass from lower orbits to higher orbits, or even to the Moon, with ease.Meanwhile, venture capitalists are enamored with the idea of humanoid robots — robots share our shape, our work environment, and even our tools. But startups like Dusty Robotics are taking a different tack; instead of building human-shaped robots, Dusty has built a small, wheeled 'bot that can mark out building sites quickly and accurately. And it's doing more revenue than all humanoid robotics companies combined, I reckon. Dusty's CEO, Dr. Tessa Lau, joins Alex to go deep on purpose-built robots in today's build-crazy market.Timestamps:0:00 Blue Origin, and why fixing things in orbit is hard2:19 What Mira is and what it does4:35 Why was the commercial demand for Mira softer than expected5:20 Space Force demand and the GEO-capable Mira7:08 Helios: a "rocket on top of a rocket."10:10 Sentry - Your team should be focused on shipping features — not chasing down bugs.

As militarized drone technology rapidly reshapes global warfare, national security officials are turning their focus to potential threats right here at home. This summer presents unprecedented security challenges, with massive crowds expected for America's 250th anniversary events—including a historic UFC fight on the White House South Lawn—and for the World Cup tournament, which is being hosted at multiple venues across the country. Brett Velicovich, a former Delta Force intelligence analyst, founder of Powerus, and FOX News Contributor, joins FOX News' Lucas Tomlinson to discuss the threats drones pose to the public at large events, what security officials must do to be ready, and how drone technology is revolutionizing modern warfare.A massive explosion at the Cape Canaveral launch pad last week forced Blue Origin to scrub their highly anticipated launch of its New Glenn rocket, pushing the potential of another mission to next year. Clayton Anderson, a retired NASA astronaut who spent 30 years at the agency and lived on the International Space Station, joins to discuss the impact of the explosion on NASA's Artemis missions, the engineering challenges of building a lunar base, and how private consortiums like Blue Origin and SpaceX are shaping the future of space exploration.

In this episode of The Brainstorm, Brett, Nick and Sam are joined by Daniel Maguire to discuss Blue Origin's recent rocket explosion, which has sparked a pivotal discussion on the future of space launch dominance and AI infrastructure investments. They explore how industry giants like SpaceX might capitalize on these setbacks, potentially reshaping the competitive landscape with strategic infrastructure investments. Key Points From This Episode:SpaceX and other leaders are building infrastructure more efficiently than traditional players, reducing costs and influencing market dynamics.Companies are paying inflated prices for Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) capacity as a strategic buffer, revealing that perceived scarcity is often due to strategic pricing rather than true supply constraints.The useful life of data center chips extends beyond original ratings, allowing companies to sustain higher margins and boost capital efficiency.If you know ARK, you know we focus on long-term innovation. But that doesn't mean we ignore breaking news. Every day, we debate the latest developments in tech and markets.

Reversal - Software stocks bounced this week on strong results from Snowflake and Okta, which both recorded their best days on record. - The results signal that investors may have been too quick to declare the end of software with the emergence of artificial intelligence. - Even as AI displaces certain tools and job functions, many software companies continue to show growth, assisted by their own AI products. - The iShares Expanded Tech-Software exchange-traded fund rose 8% this week and closed May up 21%, the best monthly performance for the ETF since October 2001. - With this month's rally, the iShares software ETF is only down 3.8% for the year, still badly trailing the Nasdaq, which has gained 18% in 2026. Snowflake - Amazon said Wednesday that its cloud division has landed a $6 billion spending commitment from Snowflake, which includes the use of the company's custom silicon and chips for artificial intelligence. - Snowflake's purchase of services and technology from Amazon Web Services will occur over five years, according to a press release about the agreement. - Snowflake intends to expand its use of Amazon's Graviton general-purpose chips, as well as cloud-based graphics processing units for AI. - Snowflake and Amazon are frenemies - they compete but also partner with each other. - Stock up 36% on this news DELL!!!!!!!!!!!! - Dell Technologies Inc. shares surged due to an outlook for annual sales that far surpassed expectations on demand for servers that power artificial intelligence work. - Revenue in the fiscal year ending in January 2027 will be about $167 billion, including $60 billion from the sale of AI servers, topping analysts' average estimate of $142.1 billion. - The company booked $24.4 billion in AI orders and generated $16.1 billion in AI server sales in the quarter ended May 1, with Chief Operating Officer Jeff Clarke saying “The AI opportunity shows no signs of slowing.” - The shares surged 33% to $420.91 at the close Friday in New York, the biggest single-day increase in the more than seven years since the hardware maker returned to the public markets after a five-year hiatus as a private firm. - Up 150% YTD More Dell - New XPS 13 at $699 targets price-sensitive market - Aims to compete with MacBook Neo, lower-end Windows devices - Launch amid global memory chip crunch to gain market share - WINING OVER JCD: -- 13.4-inch screen (very compact footprint) Options: 2K / 2.5K LCD (120Hz) OLED touchscreen (higher contrast)| - Very thin bezels ? almost edge?to?edge screen - Weighs 2.2 lbs - one of the lightes out there and a rival to Apple's Macbook Neo Infighting - OpenAI may release multi-chip AI software, challenging Nvidia's (NVDA) ecosystem advantage, according to The Information - Oh, and NVDA is now releasing a CPU for PCs that is aggrevating Intel and AMD Kaboom! - Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket exploded in a massive fireball while undergoing a test on a Florida launchpad, dealing a major setback to the company. - The explosion is the latest blow to New Glenn's reputation as a reliable alternative to SpaceX's Falcon 9, and Blue Origin's launch schedule is certain to suffer significant delays. - The incident will also affect Amazon's ambitions to build out its Leo satellite network and may delay Blue Origin's role in NASA's Artemis program, which aims to send humans back to the moon. - As important as it will be for Blue Origin to diagnose the cause of the rocket explosion, it could take many months to repair its launchpad in Florida. Taking Down - Really? - BlackRock Inc. is trimming its bet on stocks across its model-portfolio business as US equities surge to record highs following a strong earnings season. - The firm cut its overweight position in equities from 3% to 1%, triggering billions of dollars of flows between BlackRock's exchange-traded funds. - BlackRock remains confident in equities and will maintain positions that bet on growing corporate profits, artificial intelligence and government spending, but is rotating away from longer-dated US debt in favor of global fixed-income and liquid alternatives. Slight - SpaceX is targeting a valuation of at least $1.8 trillion in its initial public offering, according to people familiar with the matter. - The company is seeking to raise as much as $75 billion, which would make it the biggest IPO of all time, and is expected to start formal marketing of its IPO as soon as June 4. -SpaceX had $18.7 billion in revenue in 2025, and the company's pitch to investors shows its evolution into an AI services and infrastructure giant with a total addressable market of $28.5 trillion. - 3-5% of the shares will be floated (TIGHT) Strategy: keep supply constrained, which: supports price discovery maintains founder control creates early scarcity dynamics - - - SpaceX has reserved 5% of the shares ?in its planned initial public offering for certain employees and individuals selected by its executive officers, exempting them from post-IPO lock-up restrictions AND..

Its system can control multiple displays with different aspect ratios at the same time by using a single-on-chip, which is different from other conventional in-vehicle display systems, LG said. - But 24% on this news? - More reason that the KOSPI is moving higher No One Care - But... - Inflation has been above the 2% target for 5 years now - Minneapolis Federal Reserve President Neel Kashkari said Thursday that bringing down inflation in the U.S. remains his top priority, warning that consumer prices are still “much too high.”| - Speaking to CNBC's Kaori Enjoji at the Bank of Japan-IMES Conference, Kashkari said that the U.S. central bank would continue taking a “balanced approach” to its dual mandate of price stability and full employment. - 5 YEARS! ---- What that tells us is that the Fed is totally unable to do anything about inflation .... Are we the only ones that see that? Inside Baseball - From a colegie that will go un-named. --- Let's just say he is someone who knows what they are talking about and runs BIG money ----- This is what he said to me..... - Apparently, oil execs were opining with POTUS in meetings yesterday that oil inventories are at alarmingly low levels and oil prices could soon skyrocket (I might soften that language a bit but they know the oil biz better than me) if SoH does not open soon. - I ran a few numbers on total oil inventories including and excluding the SPR. - Total supplies are 10th percentile vs history (although that includes a period when the SPR ramped from 0 to 600mln barrels in the 1980's). - Today it is 4th percentile if you start from 1990 when the SPR was basically full. - The 4 week net and % draw the last 3 weeks are the largest draws of all time. - And not surprising the 1 week net and % draw of the SPR are also the 2 largest draws of all time the last 2 weeks. Surprised - No.... --- This is another story similar to what we saw a few months ago - Taiwan prosecutors suspect that three individuals smuggled at least one shipment of Nvidia Corp. AI chips to China after first exporting them to Japan. - The trio was detained for allegedly falsifying documents related to exports of Super Micro Computer Inc. servers containing advanced Nvidia chips, which the US has barred from sale to China without a license. - Taiwan authorities seized about 50 servers for which they accuse the trio of preparing fraudulent export documents, but at least one shipment had already gone through Taiwan customs and made it to Hong Kong. Under/Over? - Tesla will be somehow folder/merged or taken over by SpaceX in an all stock deal - Tesla market cap is $1.6 Trillion so that will be a tough one to take on as SpaceX is about equal in size. ---- If this happens, when ? Mini Retirement - Is this a THING? - A mini retirement is when you take a planned break from working, usually for a few months to a couple of years, instead of waiting until age 65+ to fully retire. - Tim Feerris popularized this...

I watched footage of Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin rocket explode on launch and it got me thinking about something far more personal: who actually belongs in your ship. In this episode, I break down the rocket booster principle and why holding on to the wrong people past their purpose is exactly what sends you crashing back to Earth. This is not about cutting people off carelessly. It is about being honest with yourself about roles, energy, and who is genuinely on your mission. The people in your past and present who believed in you are counting on you to reach orbit. Key Takeaways Not everyone who is a good person deserves a seat in your future. People have roles, and those roles have seasons. The hardest part of any launch is escaping gravity. The fuel that gets you off the ground is not always what carries you into orbit. Identify who is in the ship with you versus who is a rocket booster. Both matter, but they require different levels of your energy. Some people are not trying to fly anywhere. They just want to burn your fuel. Removing them is not cruelty, it is survival. Everyone who believed in you at any stage of your journey is banking on you to keep going. You owe it to them to reach your level. Action Steps Write down the names of two or three people who are genuinely in the ship with you and intentionally invest more energy into those relationships this week. Identify one person in your life who consistently drains your energy without contributing to your mission and begin reducing how much fuel you pour into that dynamic. Reflect on a past relationship or friendship that faded and reframe it as a rocket booster moment. They did their job. Honor that by continuing to fly. Notable Quote Once those silos have outlived their purpose, they become a liability. And if you hang on to them out of gratitude, the whole thing falls back to Earth.

SCHEDULE THE JBS, 5-29-26.457 THE AMBROSIAN ILIAD.(1) Jeff Bliss discusses the Los Angeles mayoral race between incumbent Karen Bass, who faces criticism over homelessness and crime, and unconventional candidate Spencer Pratt, who utilizes social media and "guerrilla campaigning" to gain traction.(2) Jeff Bliss highlights Las Vegas's pursuit of an NBA team to complete its status as a global sports capital, while the Fertitta family acquires Caesar's Palace, consolidating power among the city's casino billionaires.(3) Professor Richard Epstein analyzes the legal history of birthright citizenship and Donald Trump's executive order, arguing that the 14th Amendment has been misinterpreted and that the child's status should depend on the parent's.(4) Professor Richard Epstein describes the Trump administration's $1.776 billion "slush fund" as a fraudulent private agreement, noting that despite its likely illegality, legal standing requirements make it difficult for anyone to successfully challenge.(5) Jim McTague reports on Lancaster County's economy, noting record-breaking gasoline sales at Costco despite rainy weather, the rise of retirement-driven healthcare, and local "Luddite" opposition to a proposed data center in Columbia.(6) Veronique de Rugy discusses a proposed California tax on billionaires, warning it will drive high earners away and reduce state revenue, while a competing initiative seeks to protect regular citizens' savings from taxation.(7) Bob Zimmerman examines a massive Blue Origin rocket explosion that has grounded the New Glenn program and delayed NASA's Artemis missions, leaving SpaceX as the only viable private partner for immediate lunar goals.(8) Bob Zimmerman discusses mysterious subsurface changes in the sun and conflicting data regarding water ice at the lunar South Pole, while highlighting Mars' "brain terrain" as evidence of significant near-surface ice deposits.(9) Francis Rose details the Department of Veterans Affairs' ambitious rollout of a new electronic health record system in Michigan, aiming for a seamless "enlistment to grave" digital history for every member of the military.(10) Francis Rose explores the security risks of electronic health records, explaining how nation-states like China seek bulk data for espionage and how the government utilizes "zero trust" technology to deter sophisticated machine-speed hacks.(11) Gene Marks reports from Nashville that mid-market companies are aggressively adopting AI to supplement labor shortages rather than replace workers, while also navigating the complexities of receiving refunds for previously paid tariffs.(12) Gene Marks questions surveys claiming 93% small business growth and dismisses claims that AI will eliminate white-collar jobs soon, asserting that human workers will naturally adapt to new technology as they have historically.(13) Henry Sokolski argues that no inherent "right to enrichment" exists under the NPT, warning that Iran's nuclear ambitions and regional power plants create dangerous targets and risk a "hot spot" of nuclear-armed nations.(14) Henry Sokolski discusses Russia's "gray warfare" tactics against NATO, including drone provocations and sabotage of European infrastructure, warning that the United States is not taking these threats seriously enough compared to Europe.(15) Conrad Black discusses Alberta's threat to secede from Canada if the federal government blocks oil pipelines, detailing the political maneuvering between Premier Danielle Smith, indigenous groups, and Prime Minister candidate Mark Carney.(16) Lorenzo Fiori reports on a record-breaking Italian heat wave and the poor market reception of Ferrari's new electric vehicle, while noting that affordable Chinese EVs are rapidly becoming the top-selling cars in Italy.

Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket exploded yesterday, and miraculously, no one was harmed. The Trump administration released a new website about aliens in America, and it ends with a twist. Glenn reacts to all the performers who are backing out of the America 250 event due to its "divisive" nature. What is so divisive about celebrating America's 250th birthday?

Glenn dives deeper into the true reason why performers are backing out of the America 250 concert celebration. BlazeTV host Steve Deace joins to discuss the controversy surrounding the America 250 event and how Americans should celebrate this milestone.

SCHEDULE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 5-28-26.1890 VIKINGS(1) Anatol Lieven discusses Moscow's escalation and the future of Ukraine negotiations, noting that Russia has threatened targeted strikes on Ukrainian headquarters in Kyiv. High casualty rates and stalled front lines contribute to a mood of frustration in Moscow.(2) Anatol Lieven examines the struggle for UK Labour Party leadership, where Andy Burnham is the preferred candidate to replace Keir Starmer but must first win a by-election. The rising Reform Party poses a significant threat to established political figures.(3) Josh Rogin discusses the Trump-Xi summit, noting that the President's visit to Beijing featured major CEOs but yielded no new trade agreements. Both nations remain locked in a trade war with mismatched expectations regarding economic cooperation.(4) Josh Rogin examines upcoming Section 301 investigations that will address Chinese forced labor and dumping. Simultaneously, a critical shortage of magnets from China is impacting the production of U.S. defense technology and fighter jets.(5) Evan Ellis describes turmoil in Bolivia, where supporters of Evo Morales have blockaded La Paz, causing severe humanitarian shortages. These groups utilize military-style tactics to protect drug territories and pressure the government while Morales evades justice.(6) Evan Ellis examines electoral crossroads in Colombia and Peru, with Colombia facing a choice between leftist and pro-U.S. candidates in its upcoming election. In Peru, Keiko Fujimori leads a narrow race with implications for regional security and Chinese influence.(7) Evan Ellis discusses legacies and alliances in Brazil, Venezuela, and Cuba, where Flavio Bolsonaro seeks U.S. alignment in Brazil, while the U.S. conducts military exercises near Venezuela. Meanwhile, the U.S. offers financial aid to Cuba to encourage democratic and economic transitions.(8) Evan Ellis previews Pope Leo's historic visit to South America, including his former missionary grounds. In Argentina, President Milei struggles with declining approval as Peronist opposition organizes for future electoral challenges.(9) Stephen Mazie discusses Supreme Court challenges to birthright citizenship and the President's power over the Federal Reserve. Rulings could drastically redefine executive authority and independent federal agencies.(10) Stephen Mazie examines the Supreme Court's recent ruling in Louisiana v. Callais, which has disrupted primary elections by allowing the elimination of majority-minority districts. This reflects a long-term effort by the conservative majority to weaken federal oversight.(11) Jeff McCausland analyzes the tense naval standoff between U.S. and Iranian forces in the Strait of Hormuz. Critics argue the administration failed to anticipate the blockade or effectively address regional Iranian proxies.(12) Jeff McCausland discusses Russian casualties and NATO's growing nuclear anxiety, noting that Russia has reportedly suffered 500,000 deaths in Ukraine, creating severe manpower shortages. Consequently, European allies like France are considering moving nuclear assets eastward due to waning confidence in U.S. support.(13) Simon Constable and Jim McTague examine global commodities and the economic impact of war, noting that high energy prices, including $8 diesel in France, are straining consumer budgets. While some commodity prices are stabilizing, the ongoing conflict in Iran continues to drive global inflation.(14) Simon Constable and Jim McTague discuss the leadership vacuum in the United Kingdom as internal Labour Party disputes intensify. Some elites are calling for Tony Blair's return while the Reform Party gains traction among dissatisfied voters.(15) Douglas Messier and David Livingston discuss the Starship 12 mission, which achieved significant milestones despite booster failures. NASA has also awarded major contracts to Blue Origin for lunar rovers and a specialized base lander.(16) Douglas Messier and David Livingston examine NASA's phased plan to establish a permanently crewed moon base by 2032. The timeline involves uncrewed test landings and orbital refueling to prepare for future human missions.
