AirSpacers are watchers of movies, but we are also readers of books. In our inaugural Book Club we're reading The Milky Way: An Autobiography of Our Galaxy by Dr. Moiya McTier. This book is a non-fiction romp through the Milky Way's life (and future death) told from its perspective. How does the Milky Way feel about consuming other galaxies? Does watching us humans get boring? Can a galaxy be self-conscious about its black hole? Dr. Moiya explores these questions and more with personality, or should we say galaxality? Read along with the AirSpace book club.Thanks to our Guest in this episode:Dr. Moiya McTier, AuthorFind the transcript at s.si.edu/airspaces10e12AirSpace is created by the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum with generous support from Lockheed Martin.
Despite decades of progress, the number of women in engineering remains stubbornly low — especially in aerospace and mechanical engineering. But that isn't stopping the winner of the Aerospace/Defense category in the inaugural Women in Engineering: Rising Star Awards. Heather Cummings is Senior Engineer, Flight Controls & Autonomy for Sikorsky, a Lockheed Martin company. She leads the development of hybrid electric propulsion controls and vehicle management systems for Sikorsky's next-gen HEX and RBW, including groundbreaking work on fully autonomous cargo aircraft. A licensed pilot, Heather is passionate about improving flight safety through automation and mentoring the next generation of aspiring engineers. In this special episode, Heather and Chitra Sethi, Director of Editorial & Digital Content, SAE Media Group, discuss the mission behind the Rising Star Awards, the importance of visibility for women in STEM, and why inspiring the next generation is just as critical as technological innovation. If you'd like to nominate a trailblazing female engineer (or yourself), visit www.techbriefs.com/rsa. Nominations close on July 22, 2025. Winners will be spotlighted across SAE Media Group's publications, websites, e-newsletters, and social media channels.

Het lijkt dan toch te gaan gebeuren: Shell wil BP overnemen. Het zou gaan om een deal van 80 miljard dollar, meldt The Wall Street Journal. Al jaren wordt er gespeculeerd over het samensmelten van deze twee grote oliegiganten, maar de hoop op een snelle overname werd vorig week nog de kop ingedrukt door uitgerekend de ceo zelf. En ook vandaag wist het bedrijf niet hoe snel ze het nieuws moesten ontkennen. Hoe zit het nou? En wie heeft er gelijk? We proberen er de vinger op te leggen deze aflevering. We kijken ook naar Worldline, een Franse concurrent van Adyen. Ze zijn er vooral voor klanten die door elke andere betaalverwerker al zijn uitgekotst, blijkt uit onderzoek van 21 kranten, waaronder NRC. Het bedrijf verdiende bewust geld aan frauderende klanten: gok- en porno-sites die nergens terecht konden, werden bij Worldine met open armen ontvangen. De koers van het betaalbedrijf was al om te huilen, maar wat er nog van over was, stortte vandaag ook in elkaar. En de ceo van Prosus doet een ambitieuze belofte: hij wil de omzet tegen 2028 verdubbelen. Deze Fabricio Bloisi bezit sowieso een flinke voorraad verdubbelaars. Vlak na z'n aantrede beloofde hij de beurswaarde van Prosus te verdubbelen en deze week rapporteerde het bedrijf een verdubbelde winst. Of hij die omzetbelofte ook waar kan maken, gaan we bespreken.

Ranní brífink Martina Ehla: I operátor dronu by měl mít pilotní výcvik, říká Marek Polčák, spoluzakladatel a ředitel firmy Vrgineers, která vyvíjí a vyrábí brýle pro virtuální realitu a simulátory. Vysvětluje, jak se jejich hlavní trh v USA s nástupem vlády Donalda Trumpa zmrazil a naopak, jak se Evropané začali konečně zajímat o moderní technologie použitelné pro vlastní obranu. “Objednávky ale neprší lusknutím prstu, obranný průmysl je poměrně rigidní a zpomalený,” říká Polčák.
What's the smartest way to take over a team without falling into the usual traps? In this episode, I'm joined by Carl Sharperson Jr. — a former Marine Corps pilot, corporate VP and leadership coach who's worked with brands like Chick-fil-A, BMW and Lockheed Martin. Carl shares the exact process he uses to walk into a new team and turn it into a high-performing system (not just a team). We get into how authenticity and resilience aren't just personal values — they're strategic leadership tools. Carl breaks down his "join-up" approach for building trust, getting buy-in and turning adversity into fuel. No theory here. Just straight-up, battle-tested tactics from someone who's lived it in the military, the boardroom and life-or-death moments. If you're a leader stepping into a new role — or rebuilding a struggling team — this one's essential. How to take over a team and turn it into a high-performing system Build trust with a “join-up” conversation — start with your own story Ask what the org can do better, from their perspective Set expectations and invite the truth, even if it's uncomfortable Ask: “How can I help you?” Solve one problem, earn long-term loyalty Co-create the vision, strategy and plan — don't dictate Focus on the system: people, processes, relationships and metrics Teach resilience: if you quit once, it gets easier to quit again Timeline summary [04:52] - The P&G plant that outperformed by building trust and diversity [11:07] - Carl's join-up method: the conversation every new leader should have [13:20] - “Help them with one problem, and you've got a friend for life” [16:13] - Turning trust into results with clear, co-created goals [20:01] - Why high performance means building systems, not just teams [24:46] - Resilience in action: what football, cancer and leadership have in common [31:33] - Why you should go with their solution, even if yours is better [36:08] - The real leadership challenge execs confess too late: balance [40:08] - Carl's message to the world: “Love covers a multitude of sins” Links & resources

In this episode of Under the Noise, Wyn Morgan and Kate Roberts are joined by Don Donovan, a transformative leader who shares how understanding the power of state of mind reshaped both his company and his personal life. Don explores how shifting focus from purely technical skills to the deeper, often unseen qualities—like confidence, presence, and emotional resilience—unlocked lasting improvements in performance, creativity, and connection. He also shares personal insights on balancing work and life, moving beyond burnout, and embracing the unknown with courage and humility. This conversation is a powerful reminder that real transformation begins within—and that true potential emerges when we learn to quiet the internal noise.

Don served as President of BAE SYSTEM'S Electronics business, employing over 5,000 people in 6 U.S. states.

Now semi-retired, Don consults and works with businesses and teams in various industries.

What started as a promise to be a ‘peacemaker’ progressed to an escalation of the war between Iran and Israel, in which America is now an active participant. In a dramatic turn of events, US President Trump made the bold decision to insert the US into the fraught conflict, striking three nuclear sites in Iran over the weekend. That’s putting the strategic value of defense stocks in the spotlight. Join Dan Koh and Ryan Huang as they analyse the investment case of Lockheed Martin, one of many defense stocks that defied the bearish movement in the broad equities market amid the widening of conflict in the Middle East.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Life of a CISO, Dr. Eric Cole welcomes a true cybersecurity trailblazer: Dan Lohrmann. With a career that spans the NSA, Lockheed Martin, the State of Michigan, and now Presidio, Dan brings a rare depth of experience in both government and the private sector.

Together, Dr. Cole and Dan explore what it takes to build lasting trust as a security leader, the importance of strengthening your personal brand, and how to overcome barriers when leadership resists public visibility. Dan emphasizes the power of public speaking, blogging, and storytelling—not just to elevate your own profile, but to position cybersecurity as a strategic business enabler. They also dive into the value of setting clear non-negotiables when evaluating job opportunities, the role of culture and leadership alignment in long-term success, and tactical advice for those trying to land their first CISO role.

Across America in cities large and small, "No Kings" protests were well attended. From Miami to New York to Portland to San Francisco, people came out to march with signs and sing and chant together. The events were mostly peaceful, except for a shooting in Utah. Initial estimates from the American Civil Liberties Union and MoveOn.org indicate that more than five million people participated in more than 2,100 rallies and protests.While Americans were rallying against authoritarianism, Trump spent his birthday in DC watching the military march past his large parade stand built to showcase the White House in the background. Along with the tanks and troops, military equipment like drones and partners like Lockheed Martin were featured. We welcome iHeart Radio and Television political analyst Gary Dietrich to talk politics. We turn to the economy as the G7 Summit gets underway in Canada, Trump's Tariffs continue to affect the global economy and Crypto takes hold. Dr. William K.

US equity futures are slightly lower after Tuesday's gains. European markets are firmer in early trade, while Asian markets ended higher with broad gains across Greater China and Korea. US and China reached a framework to implement the Geneva consensus, though execution still requires approval from Presidents Trump and Xi. Commerce Secretary Lutnick suggested rare earth and magnet issues may be resolved through the deal, but any US export control easing depends on reciprocal Chinese moves. US-India and US-Mexico are reportedly close to interim trade deals addressing digital access and tariff relief, according to Reuters and Bloomberg. Eyes turn to Wednesday's US CPI report, where tariffs are expected to show up in higher core inflation. Elon Musk just now said he regrets his recent comments about President Trump.Companies Mentioned: Tesla, Lockheed Martin, Starbucks, General Mills
After the Wall Street Journal piece about UFO's, lots of documents and conversation about misdirect. Burlison said a few weeks back that he was told that the Tic Tac UFO was actually made by Lockheed Martin. Jeremy Corbell disputes this. Kristian Harloff gives his thoughts. #ufo #uap #uaps #ufos #alien #aliens
It's Newsday Tuesday™ with the MR crew and we'll be digging into the Trump administration's deployment of federal troops to Los Angeles amid protests over ICE raids there. Pete Hegseth tries to justify why federal troops are in LA during a House Appropriations subcommittee hearing by pushing falsehoods about both the situation on the ground, the state and local response and federal policies involving the deployment of troops. Meanwhile, National Guardsmen are sleeping on the floor in their uniforms because the hap-hazard nature of this whole operation. California's governor Gavin Newsom for his part says he's going to be suing the Trump administration over it's actions and points out that because of these deployments other important efforts like fire safety are being compromised. Donald Trump says that Greta Thunberg should take anger management classes after her peaceful humanitarian flotilla to Gaza was detained in international waters by the Israeli military. Russell Brand, who is looking more ridiculous with each passing day, mocks Greta and is seemingly upset that unlike him she actually acts based on her convictions. In the Fun Half, Chuck Todd talks to Steve Bannon, who is openly questioning whether Elon Musk ever should have had classified clearances that aren't even granted to weapons contractors like Boeing and Lockheed Martin. Scott Galloway also gets in on the beat down on Musk, though he sort of misses the key point which is that Musk (or any individual for that matter) should hold that much power. And we check in on Ezra Klein, who's taken to the pages of his local paper the New York Times to further make the case for the Abundance Agenda. We also take some calls from listeners. Tune in!

On today's show we are talking about how last week's drone attack in Russia will forever change the way investments are made in military equipment and warfare in general. The economy in the US is being bolstered by a significant amount of defence spending. Europe is about to increase its defence spending on a large scale. The same can be said for Canada. Conventional warfare has been based on the premise that the biggest baddest army will overwhelm an enemy and crush any opposition. That notion got challenged in some of the most prominent writings including Sun Tzu who wrote “The Art of War” in the 6th Century BC. It was employed during the Byzantine Empire along its eastern front in the 8th and 10th centuries. Sure you can shoot a $1000 drone out of the sky with a million dollar Patriot missile. But is that an efficient defence against these new threats? Now this is a real estate show, not a military show. We're here to talk about real estate. When we think of real estate investment one of the principles is that demand for real estate follows employment.When we think of military industrial complex it conjures up images of companies like Lockheed Martin, Harris, Honeywell, Textron. These companies drive major employment. But increasingly the military industry is seeing a lot of new entrants. One of my business partners runs a incubator that is focused on the defence industry in Colorado Springs. This facility is conducting some of the most advanced research and development on new military systems. The speed and agility with which the Ukraine has modernized its underdog military is a lesson for countries looking to modernize their military. ---------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)
NOTE: This conversation was recorded in November 2024, which is why you'll hear references to the elections and the Biden Administration.This week on The Big Picture, we sit down with military analyst and author William Hartung.Hartung is a senior fellow at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, and in 2010 published Prophets of War: Lockheed Martin and the Military Industrial-Complex - a seminal work that examined how military lobby groups shaped public policy, and how White House officials pursued lucrative jobs in the same lobbies that funded their political careers.In 2024 he published a Cost of War report with Brown University, which unpacked the $20 billion of military aid the Biden Administration had given to Israel's government since October 7, the majority of which was then used to purchase weapons from US military companies.We'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode, and any guests you'd like us to have on our show.

In this latest installment of Unidentified History, Dave gives a debrief of Contact in the Desert. He had the opportunity to spend a day at the largest UFO/UAP Convention in the world and, spoiler alert...he had a hell of a time. Dave discusses with PC Tunney and DJ his takeaways from the event, including the state of Disclosure, why we need to take Experiencers more seriously, why not enough attention is being paid to USOs, and did Dave capture something odd on his Night Vision goggles? The guys also discuss a recent allegation made to Representative Eric Burlison that the tic-tac might have been Lockheed-Martin tech all along. Could this be true? In the second half of the show, we finally get to our first historical deep dive as the guys break down the Battle of Los Angeles. Over 5 years before Kenneth Arnold and Roswell, at the beginning of the USA's involvement in World War II, the skies over Los Angeles erupted as over 1400 rounds of ammunition were fired into the darkness at an unknown object(s). But no planes were downed, no wreckage was found, and the entire incident remains shrouded in mystery. Was a UFO involved, and if so, was this the first mass UFO sighting in North America? The guys take a fresh look at this iconic incident to see if anything new has been learned in the past 80 years and whether there is any way to solve one of the enduring mysteries of Ufology. Once thought to be solely the stuff of science fiction, UAPs (UFOs) are very real to millions around the world. In 2021, the US Government confirmed that leaked UAP video was legitimate. Ever since, there has been an explosion of interest in the topic. Yet, we are no closer to understanding UAPs, where they come from, or who/what is behind the phenomenon. In this new series, we look to bridge the gap between the past and present by looking at some of the most important UAP sightings in history and determining whether the question of "are we alone in the universe?" might have already been answered.About the Chairshot Radio NetworkLaunched in 2017, the Chairshot Radio Network presents you with the best in sports, entertainment, and sports entertainment.

There is a long history of industry heavy war profiteers like Lockheed Martin and Northrup Grumman having deep ties within elite political and military circles. This has led to trillions being spent on weapons manufacturing. With the rise of Silicon Valley and artificial intelligence (AI) in our society, we're seeing those same elites build out AI for military and geopolitical purposes. In our latest, we talk with Project Censored and award-winning investigative journalist Peter Byrne about his groundbreaking 10-part exposé on the dangerous militarization of artificial intelligence—and the profiteering that drives it. Bio//Peter Byrne is an award-winning investigative science reporter who has long uncovered corruption at the nexus of science and industry. Now, in partnership with Project Censored, Byrne has launched Military AI Watch, a groundbreaking ten-part series that will run monthly on Project Censored.——————Outro- "Green and Red Blues" by MoodyLinks//+ Military AI Watch (https://bit.ly/3ZjLRCh)+ Peter's website: https://www.peterbyrne.infoFollow Green and Red// +G&R Linktree: https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast +Our rad website: https://greenandredpodcast.org/ + Join our Discord community (https://discord.gg/3a6AX7Qy)+Follow us on Substack (https://greenandredpodcast.substack.com)+Follow us on Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/podcastgreenred.bsky.social)Support the Green and Red Podcast// +Become a Patron at https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast +Or make a one time donation here: https://bit.ly/DonateGandR Our Networks// +We're part of the Labor Podcast Network: https://www.laborradionetwork.org/ +We're part of the Anti-Capitalist Podcast Network: linktr.ee/anticapitalistpodcastnetwork +Listen to us on WAMF (90.3 FM) in New Orleans (https://wamf.org/) + Check us out!

In this podcast episode, Dr. Jonathan H. Westover talks with Doug Howarth about hypernomics and improving our understanding of markets and decision-making processes. At fourteen, Doug Howarth was faced with a problem that would pursue him for decades. He had just been exposed to the 2D and 3D coordinate systems of René Descartes. While they offered a framework for many problems, he wondered: What other plotting systems exist that we haven't seen? Shortly after, Doug found out that his kidneys were failing and that clouded his thinking. Persevering through this challenge, he majored in economics at Washington State University, graduating top of his class. In 2002, Doug's best friend, Tim Schreiner, gave him a kidney. When he came to after the operation, his brain was clear for the first time in thirty years, and he was determined to make maximal use of his improved mental capacity. Not long after that, when he and his wife went shopping for a new washing machine, as she weighed her options aloud, he realized she had solved a multidimensional problem in her head. He instantly recognized that people throughout the store were subconsciously doing similar evaluations for all their considered purchases. In that moment, Doug Howarth discovered Hypernomics, the study of market actions across four or more dimensions, the plotting systems he had been wondering about for three decades. He founded Hypernomics Inc. on his ideas, which has worked for NASA, Virgin Galactic, and Lockheed Martin. Along with two others, he's been awarded US Patent 10,402,838 for the world's first 4D analytic software. Wiley will publish his book, Hypernomics: Using Hidden Dimensions to Solve Unseen Problems, in January 2024. Check out all of the podcasts in the HCI Podcast Network!

Pancho Barnes was larger than life. Born at the turn of the century, she spent the next 75 years defying every societal norm she found stuffy, boring or just plain stupid. She rode horses and then flew planes in the movies. She raced airplanes and briefly held the women's airspeed record.

Tariffs and tangled supply chains: This week, we explore how commercial aerospace and defense companies are navigating a new wave of trade restrictions. From Boeing to Lockheed Martin, what do transparency and oversight mean when the stakes — and the sky —are high? Host: Bentley Kaplan, MSCI ESG ResearchGuest: Mike Disabato, MSCI ESG Research
If you were curating a mixtape that might be heard by aliens billions of years from now, but definitely would be seen by your fellow Earthlings, what would you put on it? In 1977, two Voyager spacecraft launched from Cape Canaveral on a journey that would take them out to our outer solar system and beyond. Affixed to the side of these two planetary explorers was the Voyager Golden Record. This ultimate mixtape of humanity contained 27 pieces of music and also pictures, greetings in many languages, and the sounds of Earth. Nearly 50 years later, we're exploring what's on the record, how it got made, and its legacy with one of it's makers. Oh! and we brought in our friends from Sidedoor to help :)Thanks to our guests in this episode: Ann Druyan - Voyager Golden Record Creative Director Lawrence Azerrad - Co-founder of Macroscopic Find the transcript here.AirSpace is created by the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum with generous support from Lockheed Martin.
A report from the Seattle Aerospace Bash, Boeing's strategic divestments, Avelo Airlines' controversial charter flights, Electra's innovative aircraft technology, Lockheed Martin's future fighter jet developments, and Boeing's reacquisition of Spirit AeroSystems. Seattle Aerospace Bash The Seattle Aerospace Bash (Formerly BBQ) was held April 5th, 2025, at the Museum of Flight View Room, in Seattle, Washington. Aerospace enthusiasts and geeks gathered to celebrate the year ahead in aviation and space. In addition to food, activities included an aerospace swap meet, a sticker/freebie table, Isaac Alexander's aerospace trivia contest, and an aerospace raffle with various prizes. Isaac Alexander and participants at the Seattle Aerospace Bash. Brian Coleman spoke with organizer Isaac Alexander about the Seattle Aerospace Bash. Isaac is known as Jet City Star on many social media platforms, and he's the Chief Content Officer at the Hype Aerospace Insights service. Brian also had a conversation with Brian Wiklem about aerospace memorabilia and the aviation documentaries he produces as a hobby. Find avgeektv on YouTube and at avgeektv.com. Freebies at the Seattle Aerospace Bash. Aviation News Boeing to Sell Portions of Digital Aviation Solutions to Thoma Bravo for $10.55 Billion Boeing has entered into a definitive agreement with software investment firm Thoma Bravo to sell portions of its Digital Aviation Solutions business. The all-cash transaction is valued at $10.55 billion. Thoma Bravo would acquire the assets of Jeppesen, ForeFlight, AerData, and OzRunways. Jeppesen provides flight planning tools, and navigation charts. It was acquired by Boeing in 2000. ForeFlight offers an electronic flight bag and was acquired in 2019. AerData specializes in lease management, engine fleet planning, and records management. It was acquired 2014. OzRunways produces an electronic flight bag and maps for drone operators in Australia. That company was acquired 2024. Boeing will retain Digital Aviation Solutions' fleet maintenance, diagnostics, and repair service elements. That organization currently employs approximately 3,900 people worldwide. Subject to regulatory approval, the transaction is expected to close by the end of 2025. Thoma Bravo has over US$179 billion in assets under management as of December 31, 2024. North Bay activists call for boycott of Avelo Airlines as it plans for ICE deportation flights Avelo Airlines previously announced it would operate deportation charter flights for the Department of Homeland Security. This sparked protests against the airline at Charles M. Schulz Sonoma County Airport in California, at Daytona Beach International Airport in Florida, and near Wilmington Airport in Delaware. Avelo Airlines generates profit by leveraging its ultra-low-cost carrier model. Key strategies include low operating costs, ancillary revenue, efficient fleet utilization, use of secondary airports, and lean staffing. Avelo's Cost per Available Seat Mile (CASM), excluding fuel, is only 6.6 cents. CASM = Total Operating Costs / Available Seat Miles (ASM) ASM is the number of available seats times the distance flown. Typical CASM for different airline business models: 6-8 cents for ULCC 8-10 cents for LCC 13-17 cents for legacy carriers Electra raises $115m for ultra-short take-off and landing aircraft Electra.aero is developing the eight-engine hybrid-electric EL9 Ultra Short, a 9-passenger, high-wing aircraft. The company claims a 150-foot ground roll, 75 dBA at 300 feet, and 40% lower fuel burn. The target market is regional aircraft. The Ultra Short technology demonstrator is undergoing flight testing. The first eSTOL flight was May 16, 2024. Video: Electra First eSTOL Flight May 2024 https://youtu.be/esTykmreHuQ?si=1dRhyc5CSsWihtL2 John Langford is the founder and CEO of Electra.aero.
