Rachel Walker MasonEver since I can remember I've been able to see music as colours when I listen to music or compose a song. I've since learned that this condition is called synaesthesia and people often refer to it as “my superpower”.I always felt my happiest and most fulfilled when I was singing or writing music so it felt natural to make it my career path. I've never wanted to do anything else as a job and am very lucky that I've been able to live my dream, pursuing music through school, my undergraduate degree then a masters in songwriting before starting my career as a freelance songwriter, musical director and vocal coach.During my career, I've performed all over the world, coached hundreds of singers from beginners to west end performers, run an artist management company and worked extensively in my community to encourage different generations to bond through the arts. For this, I was crowned Freelancer Of The Year and Woman of the Year. Throughout my life, I've struggled with my mental health and when my children were born I was diagnosed with postnatal depression. After recovering I set up Lyrical Light as a songwriting workshop for those struggling with their mental health after becoming parents. It's a real honour to be able to help people through music.My work now encompasses both of these aspects from co-writing and songwriting, working as a Maternal Mental Health Ambassador and with parents who are suffering from Post-Natal Depression.

Interview with Ian Cockerill, CEO of Endeavour Mining PLCOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/endeavour-mining-tsxedv-expanding-margins-and-quality-growth-4531Recording date: 7th May 2025Endeavour Mining, one of West Africa's premier gold producers, is reporting exceptional performance under CEO Ian Cockerill, who took the helm in January 2024. The company generated $411 million in free cash flow in Q1 2025, marking its fifth consecutive quarter of improved results.Cockerill has implemented a streamlined "4E" strategy—Employees, Excellence, Exploration, and Expansion—focusing on operational efficiency and disciplined cost management. Despite industry-wide inflation, Endeavour has maintained stable costs over six quarters through initiatives like centralized procurement.The company offers investors a rare combination of high yield and substantial growth potential. With a dividend yield of approximately 6% and planned production growth of 30-35% by 2030, Endeavour appeals to both income-focused and growth-oriented investors. In 2024, the company returned $277 million to shareholders and has already guaranteed a $225 million dividend for 2025, with additional share buybacks expected.Driving Endeavour's growth strategy is the Assafou project in Côte d'Ivoire, described as "the best discovery in West Africa over the last decade." This tier-one asset holds 4.3 million ounces in reserves with a 15-year mine life and is expected to produce over 350,000 ounces annually at an all-in sustaining cost below $1,000 per ounce.Exploration remains central to the company's approach, having discovered nearly 20 million ounces in the past eight years at under $25 per ounce. Current production stands at approximately 1.2 million ounces annually from five mines across three West African jurisdictions, with plans to reach 1.5 million ounces per year by 2030.While acknowledging perceived risks in West Africa, Cockerill emphasizes Endeavour's long-standing local relationships and operational stability. The company's valuation gap has been narrowing since Q4 2024 as market confidence grows in both its current performance and future prospects.View Endeavour Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/endeavour-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Endeavour Mining PLC (LSE:EDV, TSX:EDV, OTCQX:EDVMF) vice president of Investor Relations Jack Garman talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's robust first-quarter performance and the outlook for its organic growth pipeline. Garman highlighted that Endeavour Mining delivered approximately 30% of its full-year gold production guidance in Q1 2025 alone, supported by lower-than-expected sustaining costs. This, alongside a buoyant gold price, allowed the company to generate record free cash flow of $409 million, equivalent to around $1,200 per ounce. He confirmed that Endeavour Mining is prioritising free cash flow generation, particularly after completing its recent growth phase. “Our view fundamentally, is (that) the best way to maximise free cash flow generation is by keeping our costs down,” Garman noted. The company also reduced net debt by $354 million in the quarter, bringing leverage down to 0.22x net debt to adjusted EBITDA. Shareholder returns have increased, with $40 million in share buybacks and a $225 million minimum dividend commitment in 2025. Garman provided updates on the Assafou project, calling it a “tier one project” with a defined 4.5 million ounce resource and a projected annual output of 330,000 ounces at below $900/oz sustaining cost for the first ten years. A definitive feasibility study is expected by early 2026, with construction potentially starting in H2 2026 and first production by H2 2028. He added that Endeavour Mining sees no immediate need for mergers or acquisitions, as its pipeline provides enough visibility to grow production by 35% to over 1.5 million ounces annually by decade's end.

How does love fit into your life? Are you aware of your love or being loved? Love is fundamental to human existence; expressing love and feeling loved are key to a healthy and productive life. In reality, love is essential but is often forgotten. This episode explores how one small word—love—encompasses a vast spectrum of human experiences. While English limits us to a single term, ancient Greeks and Romans recognized nine distinct types of love that shape our relationships, creativity, and sense of self. Join us as we unpack these nine "colors" of love: from passionate Eros to playful Ludus, from the selfless Agape to the practical Pragma. Learn how these different expressions of love influence your daily life, your relationships, and your personal development. Through a simple yet powerful exercise called "The Love List," you'll discover which types of love dominate your life and which might be missing. This exploration isn't just theoretical—it's a pathway to deeper self-understanding and more meaningful connections with others. Whether you're reflecting on romantic relationships, family bonds, creative pursuits, or your relationship with yourself, this episode offers a framework to understand and express love in all its beautiful complexity. Hey there! Ever wondered how love fits into the grand scheme of your life? Join me, Paul Harvey, your midlife coach, in this bite-sized episode of the Life Passion and Business Shortcast where we dive into the essence of love. We all know love is fundamental to human existence, right? Yet, we often brush past it in our daily grind without giving it the spotlight it deserves. In this engaging episode, I explore how we can weave love into every aspect of our lives, from trivial things like our favorite foods to deeper connections we share with our families and friends. I invite you to make a 'love list'—an enlightening exercise that helps you map out the different kinds of love you experience. Have you ever thought about how your love for pizza differs from the love you feel for your partner? Or how does time spent with an old school friend evoke philia love? Together, we uncover the different faces of love as viewed through the lens of ancient Greek and Latin words—like Eros for passionate love, Philia for deep friendship, and Agape for unconditional love. It's all about recognizing these varying degrees in the everyday actions and relationships that fill our lives with meaning. We also tackle the importance of self-love, Philautia, emphasizing how acknowledging and embracing who we are can empower us to climb higher and weather the storms of life. This exploration isn't just about understanding; it's also about feeling and expressing love, which, as you'll see, is a true game-changer in your personal development journey. So, whether you wish to find more passion, build deeper relationships, or simply understand yourself better, this episode might just be the nudge you need. Don't forget to share it with a friend or leave a comment—let's spread the love and remind everyone that love truly is the better option! When you have completed your love list, mark it up as directed. Here are the different forms of love to remind you. Eros: Romantic Love, the Greek god of love, the Cupid cherub Philia: Affectionate love. This is the love between friends Agape: Unconditional; it is the love of sacrifice. Storge: Family love; it is how we feel about our parents and children Mania: Fixation and obsession are also forms of love. Ludus:  Play Pragma:  Pracicality. Meraki:  The Art of Creation. Philautia:  Self Love.

At the ASHA conference in Seattle, I had the opportunity to meet Gabriella Cameron and Jennifer Kent, who presented on their Theme-Based Collaborative Groups within the Endeavour Program at Ivymount, a nonpublic, publicly funded special education environment serving students aged 5–21.Gabriella and Jen's theme-based groups are embedded within Endeavour, offering structured but flexible learning experiences tailored to each student. Any student who can tolerate working in a group is a candidate, as the focus is on skill exposure rather than mastery, creating opportunities for participation at varying levels.Each group consists of 5–6 students, each supported by a 1:1 aide, alongside a specialist (SLP, OT, PT) and a group leader. The framework includes:Selecting a theme (e.g., Martin Luther King Jr.).Adapting a story/song for accessibility.Identifying vocabulary using a language board.Asking WH-questions, allowing responses through speech or AAC.Engaging in a supplemental activity, such as an OT craft or a PT movement task.Looking ahead, Gabriella and Jen are exploring ways to measure skill acquisition, enhance motivation, incorporate high-tech AAC, and share their resources more broadly—paving the way for more inclusive and meaningful learning experiences.#autism #speechtherapyWhat's Inside:Small groups foster an inclusive learning approach.The repeatable framework of theme-based collaborative groups.The value of skill exposure.An environment that increases multidisciplinary support.  Future goals for theme-based collaborative groups. Mentioned In This Episode:Membership - ABA Speech  ABA Speech: Home

Dan Dickson, CEO and Director of Endeavour Silver (TSX:EDR – NYSE:EXK), joins us to review the Q4 and full year operational metrics at the producing Guanacevi and Bolañitos silver mines, a construction update at the key Terronera Project in Mexico, the announcement of an acquisition of the producing Minera Kolpa Mine in Peru, and updates on the Pitarilla and Parral development projects.    Consolidated production last year from Guanacevi and Bolañitos met their updated 2024 guidance with 4,471,824 ounces (oz) of Silver (Ag) and 39,047 oz of gold (Au) for a total of 7.6 million silver equivalent oz. At Guanacevi in Q4 the operations team needed to replace and install a new ball mill trunnion, which was completed on November 30, 2024, and processing resumed in December to full capacity.   At the flagship Terronera Project, surface construction is nearing 90% complete. Dry commissioning is advancing on the Upper Platform, and the focus continues on the Lower Platform construction and filter press area, for full wet commissioning to begin here in Q2 2025. Dan anticipates commercial construction will commence in Q3 of this year. The Terronera Mine has the potential to double the production output, adding in around 7 million AgEq per year, with a very low All-In Sustaining Costs, projected to be down around $13 per AgEq oz.   Next we shifted over to the key news announced on April 1st, where that company announced a transaction to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Compañia Minera Kolpa S.A. (“ Minera Kolpa ”), and its main asset, the silver-focused polymetallic Huachocolpa Uno Mine (“ Kolpa ”); located in the districts of Huachocolpa and Santa Ana in the province and department of Huancavelica, approximately 490 km southeast of Lima, Peru. In 2024, the Kolpa mine produced approximately 2.0 million ounces of silver, 19,820 tonnes of lead, 12,554 tonnes of zinc and 518 tonnes of copper, for approximately 5.1 million silver equivalent ounces (“AgEq oz”). In 2024, the all-in sustaining costs of $22.80/oz Ag. The transaction is expected to close by June, and this will be a nice bolt-on producing mine for the company adding to the production profile in H2 and moving forward.   We wrap up discussing the further growth potential from the Pitarrilla and Parral Projects in Mexico.  Both are key advanced exploration and development projects in the portfolio that will have ongoing exploration and derisking work programs in the second half of this year. Dan mentions they have an eye to moving many of the development team members from Terronera over to Pitarilla, once Terronera is up and producing; working on further development next year as the next project to move down the pathway towards construction.       If you have any follow up questions for Dan regarding any of the work going on at the Endeavour Silver, then please email us at either Fleck@kereport.com or Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Endeavour Silver at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to see the most recent news from Endeavour Silver

Wall Street slipped into the red again on Tuesday with the S&P500 fighting to stay out of correction territory as it trades 8.6% below its recent record, as investors remain concerned over the impacts Trump's tariffs will have on the US economy. The Dow Jones lost 0.62%, the S&P500 shed 1.07% and the tech-heavy Nasdaq ended the day down 1.71%. Tesla shares have been hit hard lately and took a further 5% tumble on Tuesday after RBC Capital Markets lowered its price target on the EV company citing rising competition in the EV space.Over in Europe on Tuesday, markets in the region closed higher as investors assessed momentum in Germany's historic debt reform deal, which unlocks a major stimulus package for higher defence, infrastructure and climate fund spending. The STOXX 600 rose 0.61%, Germany's DAX added 1.03%, the French CAC gained 0.5% and, in the UK, the FTSE100 ended the day up 0.29%.Across the APAC region overnight Hong Kong's Hang Seng rallied again to a three-year high yesterday, ending the day up 2.29% as investors continue piling into tech stocks listed on the index following fresh stimulus and strong economic data out in the region. China's CSI index rose 0.27%, Japan's Nikkei gained 1.2% and South Korea's Kospi Index ended the day up 0.06%.Locally, the ASX started the week higher before pulling back yesterday as the local market is taking strong lead from Wall Street movements amid global uncertainty over Trump's tariffs and subsequent implications of taxes imposed on good being imported into the US. Rising geopolitical tensions in the form of Israel launching a wave of airstrikes across the Gaza Strip on Tuesday propelled the price of gold to another fresh record high as investors flock into the safe-haven asset in times of great uncertainty.Defensive stocks in the utilities, consumer staples and healthcare sectors all outperformed yesterday, for a similar reason to gold's rally, as investors look for investments that are mostly unaffected by a downturn in the economy.On that note, Woolworths shares jumped over 1% yesterday after Macquarie upgraded the supermarket to an outperform rating, while former Woolworths alcohol arm, Endeavour slipped 1.6% yesterday after Goldman Sachs downgraded the alcohol retailer to neutral.What to watch today:Ahead of the midweek trading session here in Australia the SPI futures are anticipating the ASX will open the day down 0.66% tracking Wall Street's turbulence overnight.On the commodities front this morning, oil is trading 0.94% lower at US$66.95/barrel, gold is up 1.10% to a fresh record US$3032.60/ounce, and iron ore is down 0.52% at US$102.32/tonne.The Aussie dollar has further strengthened against the greenback overnight to buy US$0.63, 94.99 Japanese Yen, 49.15 British Pence and 1 NZ$1.09 cents.Trading Ideas:Bell Potter has decreased the 12-month price target on REA Group (ASX:REA) from $281 to $264 and maintain a buy rating on the leading online real estate listings platform following the release of February property data including a national listings declining 8% YoY for the month.

Today's guest is Infinite Athlete founder Charlie Ebersol. Infinite Athlete has been a sports business story since the brand suddenly appeared on Chelsea's shirt at the start of last season.It's a story with a lot of baggage: Ebersol is former boyfriend of Maria Sharapova and Britney Spears, and son of actress Susan St James and Dick Ebersol, the legendary NBC Sport chairman. IA is backed by Andreesen Horowitz, Silver Lake, Endeavour and Todd Boehly, the Chelsea co-owner. Insert the boring but important phrase ‘Associated Party Transactions'. All parties were asked by the Premier League about potential conflicts of interest and whether the sponsorship value of the shirt exceeded fair market value, which is a slippery concept in and of itself. The final sentence of this paragraph is: ‘The Premier League approved the deal after thorough scrutiny'.That story, or a version of it, is how many people talk about Infinite Athlete. Charlie Ebersol's responses to this narrative are really interesting, and I'll leave you to have a listen and judge for yourself.We then get to the other question, which is: WTF is Infinite Athlete?Using Chelsea as a use case, Ebersol is good on the big problem of sports tech, which AI is about to make worse.Unofficial Partner is the leading podcast for the business of sport.

Today, I'm talking to Andy Sutton, GM of Data and AI at Endeavour Group, Australia's largest liquor and hospitality company. In this episode, Andy—who is also a member of the Data Product Leadership Community (DPLC)—shares his journey from traditional, functional analytics to a product-led approach that drives their mission to leverage data and personalization to build the “Spotify for wines.” This shift has greatly transformed how Endeavour's digital and data teams work together, and Andy explains how their advanced analytics work has paid off in terms of the company's value and profitability.     You'll learn about the often overlooked importance of relationships in a data-driven world, and how Andy sees the importance of understanding how users do their job in the wild (with and without your product(s) in hand). Earlier this year, Andy also gave the DPLC community a deeper look at how they brew data products at EDG, and that recording is available to our members in the archive.   We covered: What it was like at EDG before Andy started adopting a producty approach to data products and how things have now changed (1:52) The moment that caused Andy to change how his team was building analytics solutions (3:42) The amount of financial value that Andy's increased with his scaling team as a result of their data product work (5:19) How Andy and Endeavour use personalization to help build “the Spotify of wine” (9:15) What the team under Andy required in order to make the transition to being product-led (10:27) The successes seen by Endeavour through the digital and data teams' working relationship (14:04) What data product management looks like for Andy's team (18:45) How Andy and his team find solutions to  bridging the adoption gap (20:53) The importance of exposure time to end users for the adoption of a data product (23:43) How talking to the pub staff at EDG's bars and restaurants helps his team build better data products (27:04) What Andy loves about working for Endeavour Group (32:25) What Andy would change if he could rewind back to 2022 and do it all over (34:55) Final thoughts (38:25)     Quotes from Today's Episode “I think the biggest thing is the value we unlock in terms of incremental dollars, right? I've not worked in analytics team before where we've been able to deliver a measurable value…. So, we're actually—in theory—we're becoming a profit center for the organization, not just a cost center. And so, there's kind of one key metric. The second one, we do measure the voice of the team and how engaged our team are, and that's on an upward trend since we moved to the new operating model, too. We also measure [a type of] “voice of partner” score [and] get something like a 4.1 out of 5 on that scale. Those are probably the three biggest ones: we're putting value in, and we're delivering products, I guess, our internal team wants to use, and we are building an enthused team at the same time.” - Andy Sutton (16:18) “ You can put an [unfinished] product in front of an end customer, and they will give you quality feedback that you can then iterate on quickly. You can do that with an internal team, but you'll lose credibility. Internal teams hold their analytics colleagues to a higher standard than the external customers. We're trying to change how people do their roles. People feel very passionate about the roles they do, and how they do them, and what they bring to that role. We're trying to build some of that into products. It requires probably more design consideration than I'd anticipated, and we're still bringing in more designers to help us move closer to the start line.'” - Andy Sutton (19:25) “ [Customer research] is becoming critical in terms of the products we're building. You're building a product, a set of products, or a process for an operations team. In our context, an operations team can mean a team of people who run a pub. It's not just about convincing me, my product managers, or my data scientists that you need research; we want to take some of the resources out of running that bar for a period of time because we want to spend time with [the pub staff] watching, understanding, and researching. We've learned some of these things along the way… we've earned the trust, we've earned that seat at the table, and so we can have those conversations. It's not trivial to get people to say, ‘I'll give you a day-long workshop, or give you my team off of running a restaurant and a bar for the day so that they can spend time with you, and so you can understand our processes.'” -  Andy Sutton (24:42) “ I think what is very particular to pubs is the importance of the interaction between the customer and the person serving the customer. [Pubs] are about the connections between the staff and the customer, and you don't get any of that if you're just looking at things from a pure data perspective… You don't see the [relationships between pub staff and customer] in the [data], so how do you capture some of that in your product? It's about understanding the context of the data, not just the data itself.” - Andy Sutton (28:15) “Every winery, every wine grower, every wine has got a story. These conversations [and relationships] are almost natural in our business. Our CEO started work on the shop floor in one of our stores 30 years ago. That kind of relationship stuff percolates through the organization. Having these conversations around the customer and internal stakeholders in the context of data feels a lot easier because storytelling and relationships are the way we get things done. An analytics team may get frustrated with people who can't understand data, but it's [the analytics team's job] to help bridge that gap.” - Andy Sutton (32:34)     Links Referenced LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andysutton/  Endeavour Group: https://www.endeavourgroup.com.au/    Data Product Leadership Community https://designingforanalytics.com/community

In the wake of Donald Trump's major victory in the United States, Justin Trudeau of Canada and Keir Starmer of the United Kingdom have done a dramatic about-face on immigration. Both prime ministers have suddenly acknowledged the harmful effects of mass immigration and are promising to take actions to limit the influx of foreigners. Are leftist leaders really ending replacement immigration?

LA-based artists and Sensory Signal co-founder Capes and Adult Hits join forces for the tenth release on Ransom Note offshoot Human Endeavour Records. Mirroring the sonics that the pair champion at their parties, ‘Stellar Bodies' explores visceral acid, electro and breakbeats that stimulate the mind, body and soul. The release launches with single ‘Rush', a collaboration with fellow Los Angeles artist and vocalist Dick Ensalada. His gruff, raunchy vocals marry perfectly with a driving bassline and squelchy acid to create a pumping acid house track built for sweaty dance floors. The following three tracks journey across the electro spectrum. ‘Move Your Body' is powered by plenty of low end, crisp breaks and robotic vocal samples, while title track ‘Stellar Bodies' lets a haunting synth and bubbling 303 take centre-stage, before ‘Four' brings the EP to a high octane close with stomping breakbeats and dark, moody pads that swallow you whole.

Interview with Dan Dickson, CEO of Endeavour Silver Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/silver-steals-the-spotlight-once-more-5425Recording date: 8th November 2024Endeavour Silver, a mid-tier precious metals producer, is on the cusp of a significant growth inflection point as it prepares to bring the Terronera silver project online. Located in Mexico's Jalisco state, Terronera is expected to double Endeavour Silver's production profile to 15 million silver equivalent ounces (AgEq oz) while simultaneously cutting all-in sustaining costs (AISC) in half. This transformational expansion is slated to commence commissioning by year-end 2024.The Terronera project carries a total price tag of $271 million, of which Endeavour Silver has already invested $258 million. With $55 million in cash on the balance sheet at the end of Q3 and another $35 million in untapped credit, the company appears well-funded to complete the remaining build-out. Once operational, Terronera has the potential to generate robust free cash flow - an estimated $120 million in after-tax FCF in its first full year at current silver prices. This could enable Endeavour Silver to rapidly deleverage, with the potential to pay off the entire $120 million project debt in Year 1.Beyond Terronera, Endeavour Silver is advancing the Pitarrilla project as the next leg of growth. Acquired in 2022, Pitarrilla hosts an indicated resource of over 693 million AgEq oz (Inferred 151 million AgAq oz), positioning it as one of the world's largest undeveloped silver deposits. With a goal of becoming a senior silver producer (defined as 25 million AgEq oz annually), Endeavour Silver views Pitarrilla as the key to unlocking further scale and margin expansion.Underpinning Endeavour Silver's growth trajectory is a constructive outlook for silver fundamentals. Silver demand for industrial applications has surged over the past 15 years, rising from 200-250 million ounces to 550 million ounces today. This trend appears well-entrenched, driven by silver's essential role in the electrification and decarbonization of the global economy. Additionally, silver's monetary investment case has begun to reassert itself, with prices rallying from $26 to over $34 per ounce since September. As investor interest in silver's store of value properties continues to build, it could provide a further tailwind to prices.Given the company's impending production growth, margin expansion potential, and precious metals optionality, this appears inexpensive compared to senior peers. As Terronera ramps up and Pitarrilla advances, investors may start to award Endeavour Silver a greater multiple in recognition of its increased scale and portfolio quality.Risks remain - namely operational execution at Terronera and continued political stability in Mexico. However, for investors seeking pure-play exposure to silver's myriad demand drivers, Endeavour Silver may offer a compelling organic growth story bolstered by a strong balance sheet and an attractive relative valuation. As the Terronera catalyst approaches, Endeavour Silver feel they are well-positioned to deliver transformational returns.View Endeavour Silver's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/endeavour-silverSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

En el verano de 1768 James Cook, navegante y explorador británico, zarpó de Inglaterra rumbo a Tahití­ a bordo del Endeavour con el objetivo de observar y documentar el tránsito del planeta Venus y buscar en el Pací­fico Sur señales del continente más austral: la Terra Australis. En este viaje, el capitán Cook se convertirí­a en el primer europeo en llegar a costas australianas, descubriendo el arrecife de la Gran Barrera de Coral y cientos de nuevas especies de flora y fauna. Además, sus ambiciosos estudios de cartografí­a supusieron una ayuda inestimable para calcular las distancias entre los planetas del Sistema Solar.

Many of us have visited the various displays of space shuttles around the US, and it's always a spectacular sight. The shuttle orbiter was huge, and seeing in any configuration is inspirational. Notably, the California Science Center is completing a display of the Endeavor in a launch configuration, which is unique among shuttle installations. But the very first shuttle mockup ever constructed will soon go on public display in its birthplace in Southern California, the city of Downey. This is where North American Rockwell, the builder of all the shuttles, was located until they were absorbed by Boeing decades ago. It was in the Rockwell facility that the first wood-and-aluminum mockup of the shuttle was built, and it's been stored until this day under the control of the Columbia Memorial Space Center. Of special interest: besides its uses as a technical simulator, this mockup was what closed the deal between NASA and Rockwell to build the shuttles and inspired many in Congress to support the program. The museum's Executive Director and President, Ben Dickow, joins us to talk about this magnificent, full-sized shuttle mockup, its history, and future plans. Headlines: • SpaceX's Crew-8 mission returned to Earth after a record-breaking 235 days in space, but one crew member remains in the hospital for additional medical checks • Boeing's Intelsat satellite broke up in geosynchronous orbit, creating around 5,000 pieces of space debris, posing potential long-term threats to other satellites • India announced plans for Chandrayaan-4, a joint lunar sample return mission with Japan, targeting the Moon's south pole in 2027-2028 • Chinese company Deep Blue Aerospace aims to start offering space tourist flights by 2027 on a suborbital rocket and capsule that resembles a hybrid of SpaceX's Dragon and Blue Origin's New Shepard Main Topic - Interview with Ben Dickow: • The Columbia Memorial Space Center houses Inspiration, a full-scale wooden mock-up of the space shuttle built by Rockwell in 1972 • Inspiration was used as an engineering tool and to help secure the shuttle contract for Rockwell • The mock-up features highly detailed interiors, including a crew cabin, flight deck, and cargo bay • After being mothballed for years, Inspiration was recently moved to the Columbia Memorial Space Center for display in a new building • Southern California will soon have the first and last space shuttles on display, with Inspiration in Downey and Endeavour in Los Angeles • Ben emphasizes the importance of preserving the shuttle's history and using it as an educational tool to inspire future generations of engineers and scientists • The emotional power of seeing a space shuttle up close and the human stories behind its creation are key to the exhibit's impact Hosts: Rod Pyle and Tariq Malik Guest: Ben Dickow Download or subscribe to this show at https://twit.tv/shows/this-week-in-space.

In this shorter interview, recorded at Berlin SuperReturn, Rachel Arnold, Co-Head of Vista's Endeavour strategy, a fund focused on small-cap private software companies, offers insights that echo Bill Gates comment that “software is the magic thing whose importance only goes up over time” Amazingly, over 90% of software companies are private, and as a former tech operator and CEO, Rachel brings hard-earned expertise to explain their investing approach. She discusses portfolio make up, the drivers behind software's growth and how they assist their portfolio companies on operational transformation.  She discusses the urgency and applications resulting from AI's adoption, the likely trajectory of this investing space, software's economic resilience and the runway ahead. ​​The Money Maze Podcast is kindly sponsored by Schroders, IFM Investors and the World Gold Council.

Les chercheurs de soucoupes volantes passent une partie de leur temps à scruter le ciel, à la recherche de vaisseaux ou d'objets célestes d'origine extraterrestre.Ils ont cru en trouver un dans la photographie d'un curieux objet, en orbite autour de la Terre. Pour les ufologues, aucun doute n'était permis : ce "black knight" ou "chevalier noir", comme ils nomment cet objet céleste, ne pouvait venir que des "aliens". Certains ont même réussi à le dater : cet objet, témoin de l'avance technologique des extraterrestres, aurait environ 13 000 ans.Ils sont d'ailleurs persuadés que certaines personnes ont reçu des messages de ce "black knight". À commencer par l'inventeur Nikola Tesla, qui prétendait avoir reçu de curieuses communications en provenance de Mars. Les scientifiques expliquent aujourd'hui qu'il s'agissait sans doute d'un pulsar ou d'ondes émises par un objet en orbite.À la fin des années 1920, un ingénieur norvégien, Jorgen Hals, recevait une sorte d'écho immédiat après avoir envoyé des messages radio. Pour certains ufologues, là encore, l'origine de cet écho était toute trouvée : il provenait du "chevalier noir".Les amateurs de soucoupes volantes rappellent également la découverte faite par un des premiers chasseurs d'ovnis, en 1954, qui prétendait que l'US Air Force avait repéré des satellites en orbite autour de la Terre, alors qu'aucun pays n'en avait encore lancé. L'un d'entre eux n'était-il pas, déjà, le mystérieux "chevalier noir" ?En fait, la réponse apportée par l'agence spatiale américaine est plus prosaïque. Ce mystérieux objet serait une banale couverture thermique. Elle devait être installée sur la navette Endeavour, lors d'une mission de la Nasa, en 1998.La couverture devait être mise en place pendant une sortie du vaisseau. Mais l'astronaute qui la tenait l'a laissé échapper. Ses collègues ont voulu garder une trace de cet objet avant qu'il ne se consume en entrant dans l'atmosphère terrestre.Ils ont donc pris cette couverture thermique en photo. Un cliché qui continue d'entretenir les fantasmes des ufologues. Considéré comme un débris spatial, l'objet a depuis été classé dans une base de données spécifique. Hébergé par Acast.

As the timber creaked under the pressure of the Antarctic ice, Shackleton knew his voyage aboard the Endeavour was doomed. What the ice gets, the ice keeps. And so followed one of the most obscenely daring - to the point stupidity - and heroic rescue attempts. Shackleton was determined to leave no man behind, so he set off on the high seas on a tiny lifeboat, with a few men, and no navigational equipment, in the hope he could bring back a bigger ship to save his men. But did he succeed? Listen as William and Anita are once again joined by Gabrielle Walker to finish the story of Shackleton and his absurd bravery in the Endurance expedition.

With Alexander Dalrymple sidelined, Captain James Cook and Joseph Banks are ready to set off on an expedition to track the Transit of Venus and see whether there really is a great southern continent. Over the next three years, they will encounter the indigenous populations of the Pacific antipodes for the first time, nearly get shipwrecked on the Great Barrier Reef, and change the course of world history. Listen as William and Anita are once again joined by Peter Moore to discuss the incredible journey of the Endeavour.

In the 1760's a clever, young, ambitious Scotsman named Alexander Dalrymple began advocating a theory as to the existence of a great southern continent. The idea of a landmass that would counterbalance the known world had long been the stuff of legend. Now Dalrymple wanted to prove it. Momentum built behind his expedition which was a product of the evidence-based scientific approach of the Enlightenment. Soon they had a ship, a Whitby-based collier called The Endeavour. A ship that would go on to change the course of world history. Listen as William and Anita are joined by Peter Moore to discuss The Endeavour.
