Podcasts about New Glenn

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. Guests: Ken Chang is a science reporter at the New York Times, where he covers NASA and the solar system. Brendan Byrne is a space reporter for Central Florida Public Media and host of the podcast “Are We There Yet.” Other episodes you may enjoy: Planning your photo ops for a trip around the moon The new frontier of cancer research is in space Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

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.

I denne uge skal vi blandt andet høre om NASAs måneplaner, og ikke mindst hvad et par ikke helt vellykkede raket-afprøvninger betyder for de her planer. 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

The New Glenn rocket just blew up on the launch pad, and host Matt Trump, a physicist who grew up watching every Apollo mission, has been waiting his whole life to give this talk. In this episode, Matt walks through the full arc of American spaceflight from Project Mercury through Apollo 17, Skylab, and the slow cancellation of missions that left astronauts reading the want ads. He traces America's psychological retreat from space through pop culture, from Star Wars arriving in 1977 as nostalgia rather than aspiration, to his surprising reread of Terms of Endearment as the greatest astronaut movie Hollywood never meant to make. He also covers the Challenger and Columbia disasters, the space shuttle era's trade of heroism for routine, and what the Artemis II moon flyby and private space companies mean for where we go next.

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.

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..

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...

Welcome back to Science Faction, where this week we cover everything from Disney trips and dying handheld consoles to exploding rockets, prestige television, and one of the most unsettling science fiction stories ever written. Steven is preparing for an upcoming Disney adventure and is especially excited to introduce his nephew to Galaxy's Edge. The kid's current obsessions are droids and starships, which means Disney has essentially engineered an entire section of the park specifically to drain Steven's wallet. Devon wrestles with the chaos that comes with family trips, navigating in-law logistics and the impossible task of fitting too many events into a single day. He also takes a moment to recommend comedian Josh Adam Meyers, whose visit to Devon's hometown left quite an impression. Meanwhile, Ben says goodbye to his foster kittens, affectionately known as "the captains," and reflects on their departure. To distract himself from the sadness, he gives us a fascinating history lesson on the WonderSwan, Bandai's handheld gaming system that briefly challenged Nintendo's dominance in Japan. In Future or Now, Ben dives into the recent failure of Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket and why industry experts view the incident as potentially catastrophic for the company. Beyond the loss of a vehicle, concerns center around damage to launch infrastructure and the enormous delays that can follow major launch pad failures. We also spend time discussing For All Mankind, with Ben currently watching the first season alongside his child while also keeping up with the latest season. The conversation turns to the show's increasingly tense alternate-history storytelling, particularly its depiction of Star City. Ben also highlights Becky Chambers' upcoming novella, As You Wake, Break the Shell, which immediately caught the attention of science fiction fans. Devon joins the For All Mankind discussion and branches out into several other shows. We talk about the gleeful brutality of The Boys and the unusual premise of Widow's Bay on Apple TV+, which Devon describes as feeling like Parks and Recreation collided headfirst with a Stephen King novel. Steven mostly enjoys the ride this week, contributing commentary while the conversation bounces between exploding rockets, television recommendations, and speculative fiction. For Book Club, we begin by announcing next week's story, The Stars Look Away From This Vessel by Dave Ring. The story opens with a wonderfully strange description of how to draw a spaceship, setting the tone for what promises to be a memorable piece of science fiction. This week's discussion focuses on The Things by Peter Watts, a modern classic that retells the events of John Carpenter's The Thing from the perspective of the alien itself. The story radically reframes the film's events, transforming what appeared to be a horrifying monster into something far more complicated and tragic. We discuss the unforgettable line, "I am being Blair. I escape out the back as the world comes in through the front," and examine how Watts uses the alien's perspective to challenge assumptions about identity, communication, and survival. Naturally, comparisons to The Thing (1982) dominate the discussion, while we mostly leave the 2011 prequel out in the cold where it belongs.

Episode Summary In today's episode, Anna and Avery cover six major space and astronomy stories: the growing implications of Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket explosion for NASA's lunar plans; China's surprise maiden flight of the Long March 12B reusable rocket plus the return of the Shenzhou-21 crew; Starship V3 being grounded by the FAA following Flight 12 — with SpaceX's IPO in the balance; the upcoming launch of NASA's Roman Space Telescope and its mission to find 100,000 new exoplanets; new research suggesting Earth remained a global magma ocean for up to half a billion years; and a stunning new Hubble image of galaxy M88 on a perilous journey through the Virgo Cluster.   Story 1 — New Glenn Aftermath: NASA Moon Plans Under Threat Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket was destroyed on May 28 during a pre-launch static fire test at Launch Complex 36, Cape Canaveral. As of June 2, the damage to Blue Origin's lunar programme is becoming clear: the Blue Moon Mark 1 lander — scheduled to deliver Moon Base 1 hardware in autumn 2026 — now faces likely delays, and the crewed Blue Moon MK2 timeline may slip as a result. LC-36 is Blue Origin's only orbital pad; rebuilding will take considerable time. NASA had signed a new New Glenn launch agreement for Moon rovers just two days before the explosion. Sources: Space.com, Time Magazine, TechTimes (June 1–2, 2026)   Story 2 — China's Long March 12B Debut + Shenzhou-21 Returns China's new Long March 12B rocket completed its maiden flight on June 1 from Jiuquan, deploying Qianfan constellation satellites in a no-advance-notice launch. The rocket — China's answer to the Falcon 9 — features a 20-tonne LEO capacity, a 5.2m fairing, kerolox propulsion, and dual independent flight computers ('dual brains'). No booster recovery on this flight, but planned for future missions. Developed in just 21 months. In other Chinese space news: the Shenzhou-21 crew (Zhang Lu, Wu Fei, Zhang Hongzhang) returned safely on May 29 after a record 210-day stay aboard Tiangong, landing in a Shenzhou-22 emergency rescue capsule after their original return craft was damaged by a suspected space debris strike. Sources: SpaceNews, Global Times, Xinhua (June 1, 2026)   Story 3 — Starship V3 Grounded: FAA Mishap Investigation Following Flight 12 (May 22), the FAA has formally classified the Starship V3 debut as a mishap and grounded the vehicle. The Super Heavy booster failed its boostback burn and hard-splashed in the Gulf of America; one Raptor Vacuum engine on the upper stage also failed. SpaceX must complete an FAA-overseen investigation before Flight 13. This is Starship's seventh grounding in three years. A July–August return-to-flight window is cited; a booster catch may be skipped on Flight 13. SpaceX's IPO (ticker: SPCX, Nasdaq) was filed May 20 with shares potentially trading from ~June 12. Sources: SpaceNews, Aviation Week, TechCrunch (May 27–June 1, 2026)   Story 4 — NASA Roman Space Telescope: 100,000 New Worlds NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is on track to arrive at Kennedy Space Center in June, with a launch target of early September 2026 — ahead of its May 2027 commitment. Over its five-year primary mission, Roman is expected to discover ~100,000 exoplanets, hundreds of millions of galaxies, and billions of stars, generating a 20,000-terabyte data archive. Its Galactic Bulge Survey will observe ~100 million stars in underexplored Milky Way regions. Roman also features a Coronagraph Instrument to directly image nearby exoplanets and test techniques for future Earth-analogue imaging. Sources: NASA.gov, ScienceDaily, SciTechDaily (June 1–2, 2026)   Story 5 — Earth Was a Lava World for Half a Billion Years A preprint from researchers at the Kapteyn Astronomical Institute (arXiv, June 2026) proposes that Earth's global magma ocean phase lasted up to 500 million years — far longer than previously assumed. Two key factors sustained the molten state: tidal heating from the newly formed, much-closer Moon; and a thick steam atmosphere that acted as a thermal blanket, slowing planetary cooling. The prolonged hot conditions would also have favoured the photochemical production of hydrogen cyanide — a key prebiotic molecule linked to the origin of RNA and amino acids. Sources: Universe Today, Phys.org (June 1, 2026) — preprint on arXiv   Story 6 — Hubble Images M88 on a Perilous Virgo Cluster Journey NASA/ESA Hubble's June 2026 Picture of the Month features Messier 88 (M88/NGC 4501), a spiral galaxy 63 million light-years away in Coma Berenices. M88 is on a long inward journey through the Virgo Cluster, with a supermassive black hole ~100 million solar masses at its core. Ram pressure stripping is already depleting its cold gas reserves, visible as compressed gas on the galaxy's leading edge. In ~200–300 million years, M88 will make its closest pass to M87. Observed as part of Hubble program #18103 (PI: D. Thilker).

The destruction of Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket during a ground test represents a massive setback for the private space sector and federal lunar initiatives. Because the company lacks a secondary launch site, the severe damage to the Florida launch pad could halt operations for over a year. This failure is particularly significant because the New Glenn was a mature design intended to break SpaceX's current monopoly on heavy-lift missions. Consequently, NASA's Artemis program and the Blue Moon lander missions face indefinite delays or total restructuring. Without this vehicle, the United States is now critically dependent on SpaceX for transporting heavy cargo and crew to the lunar surface. This event underscores the immense technical risks and infrastructure vulnerabilities inherent in modern aerospace development.

(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.NOVEMBER 1961

NASA's Moon Base plans just got a major update — and then Blue Origin had a serious New Glenn pad anomaly at LC-36 that could shake up the timeline for upcoming lunar missions. In this episode of Today In Space, we break down NASA's latest Moon Base update, including new awards for lunar landers, terrain vehicles, lunar drones, and the next phase of Artemis-related infrastructure. We also react to the New Glenn pad anomaly during static-fire preparations, what it could mean for Blue Origin, the Artemis architecture, and the broader push to build a permanent human presence on the Moon. Thankfully, no one was harmed — and the payload was not onboard — but this is still a major engineering and programmatic setback. Space is demanding, and moments like this remind us just how much risk, testing, failure analysis, and teamwork go into building the future of exploration. We'll also look at the path forward: root cause analysis, potential pad repairs, whether other launch providers could step in, and how NASA's lunar campaign may adapt from here.

The Space Show Presents Open Lines Discussion Today, Sunday, 5-3-26Quick Summary:This meeting focused on open discussion topics in space exploration and national security. Bob shared speculation about a potential SpaceX acquisition of 200+ square miles of land in Louisiana for data centers and manufacturing facilities, though this remained unconfirmed. The group extensively discussed the Artemis 3 mission delay, with participants debating the challenges of SLS rocket assembly versus SpaceX's Starship development approach. Ajay raised significant concerns about Russia's nuclear-powered missile program, specifically the Burevestnik missile tested in October 2025, which he described as difficult to detect and potentially dangerous. The conversation also touched on nuclear power applications for data centers and military bases, with Dr. Ajay mentioning new small modular reactor companies emerging in the market. The discussion concluded with debate about defense strategies against such nuclear capabilities and the current state of hypersonic weapons development.Detailed Summary:Bob discussed a speculative story about SpaceX potentially acquiring a 200-square-mile piece of land in Louisiana, which could be used for data centers, satellite manufacturing, and Starship production. He noted that this would allow SpaceX to shift operations away from California. The conversation concluded with a mention of Artemis 3's delay and a brief reference to Robert's recent article about the potential Louisiana land acquisition.David announced that Robert would be scheduled for a show on May 26th at 6 PM, and discussed upcoming shows including Dr. Eligar Sadeh returning on Tuesday to discuss Astropolitics journal reviewing opportunities. The group briefly discussed unconfirmed news about Elon Musk's salary and potential Mars colonization plans, though Bob repeated that much of this information was speculative. David also mentioned upcoming shows including an ISDC episode with Rod Pyle and Aggi Kobrin on May 12th.Bob shared unconfirmed rumors that SpaceX may be acquiring approximately 136,000 acres of coastal Louisiana marshland near Pecan Island for potential data centers and manufacturing facilities. The discussion explored the strategic benefits of this location, including proximity to intercoastal waterways, power infrastructure, and natural gas facilities, though participants noted concerns about launch debris dispersion and local community impact. The group acknowledged this was speculative information pending official confirmation from SpaceX.The group discussed the delay of the Artemis III mission, with Bob explaining that both Blue Origin and SpaceX requested additional time to prepare their landers for an Earth-orbiting test mission. Robert noted that this delay would impact the scheduling of subsequent Artemis missions in 2028, as SLS rockets can only be assembled one at a time using a single mobile launcher. The discussion compared SLS and Starship assembly processes, with Joe highlighting how SLS involves numerous complex steps due to its design requirements, while Starship's assembly is more streamlined. Bob concluded that Jared Isaacman's goal is to demonstrate SLS's limitations over the next two years, potentially paving the way for Starship and New Glenn rockets to replace SLS in the future.The group discussed the competitive dynamics between SLS and Starship programs, with different perspectives on NASA's intentions. Phil and Joe had a different view, suggesting NASA believed SLS could beat Starship if it increased production rates faster. The discussion also covered technical aspects of Starship's design, with Ajay raising concerns about the high dry weight requiring multiple refueling trips to the moon, while Marshall and others highlighted the importance of SpaceX's new launch facilities in enabling frequent launches.The group discussed different approaches to refueling a lunar mission depot, with Ajay presenting a plan involving expendable tankers while Phil and Bob described a reusable tanker concept aligned with SpaceX's philosophy. Ajay cited NASA and Aerospace Corporation analyses suggesting 10-16 refueling launches would be needed with expendable tankers, though the group noted these estimates were based on V2 configurations rather than the more efficient V3. Bob defended SpaceX's approach, emphasizing the company's focus on reusability and rapid launch capabilities, while acknowledging that current payload limitations might require temporary use of expendable vehicles if development timelines don't meet requirements by mid-2027.The group discussed SpaceX's Starship program and its potential, with Ajay cautioning against extrapolating success from Falcon 9 to other projects. David interrupted the Starship-focused discussion to broaden the conversation, particularly wanting Ajay to share insights about a new Russian nuclear-powered missile system that can fly at low altitudes and evade detection. Ajay explained that this missile system, demonstrated on October 21, poses a significant threat as it cannot be detected by current defense systems and could potentially remain airborne for extended periods. When asked about countermeasures, Ajay indicated he had provided suggestions to defense departments but could not share details in the open forum.Ajay discussed his work on hypersonic and nuclear power applications, highlighting his experience since 1990 and recent developments in nuclear power plants. He mentioned new companies like ILO Atomics and Astra working on 10-megawatt power plants for data centers, which could be factory-built within a year. Ajay also shared his conversations with senators about the Burevestnik missile and his meeting with Jared at Mar-a-Lago, where he inquired about the Falcon Heavy idea. Marshall raised concerns about the time required for permits for nuclear power plants, to which Ajay responded that recent executive orders have reduced the timeline to 3-6 months.The discussion focused on nuclear power applications, particularly small modular reactors and micro-reactors. Ajay explained his work on a 25-megawatt thermal power plant design and discussed the military's micro-reactor program, noting that molten salt reactors would be more suitable than pressurized water reactors for energy applications. The conversation also addressed hypersonic missile technology, with Ajay clarifying that current U.S. hypersonic programs use rocket-boosted systems with limited range, distinguishable from the nuclear-powered hypersonic missiles discussed in the context of Russian weapons. John Hunt suggested that developing such nuclear-powered systems might not be a priority for the U.S. given existing deterrent capabilities and potential public opposition.The group discussed Russia's nuclear-powered missile development, specifically the Burevestnik missile tested on October 21, 2025, which flew for 15 hours at subsonic speeds and demonstrated capabilities to evade missile defenses. Ajay emphasized the danger of these nuclear-capable missiles, noting their ability to approach from any direction and their challenging detection due to flying at low altitudes. cautioned that Russia's technical competence with high-tech projects should be viewed with skepticism, though acknowledged the need to address these developments. The discussion concluded with Dr. Ajay expressing skepticism about fusion energy timelines and advocating for Generation 4 nuclear reactors, particularly molten salt reactors using thorium or uranium-233.The group discussed thorium reactors and fusion technology. Ajay explained that China copied thorium reactor technology from Oak Ridge National Lab in the 1960s, but development was halted due to lack of plutonium production, despite its potential for clean energy. The discussion covered fusion for space applications, with Ajay expressing skepticism about the feasibility of Pulsar Fusion's proposed system due to the high energy requirements and weight constraints for space travel. The conversation also touched on the challenges of space-based data centers, with participants questioning the practicality of using space for cooling purposes given existing technical limitations.The group discussed space-based data centers and energy transmission methods. Joe explained that Overview Energy, backed by Meta, is exploring using infrared lasers to transmit energy from space to ground-based solar farms. Bob highlighted that while space data centers may not be economically viable, they could drive significant launch demand and benefit the aerospace industry. The discussion also touched on the massive capital expenditure plans of major tech companies, with Joe noting that approximately $750 billion in capital expenses could potentially include space-based data center projects, creating new opportunities for rocket companies.The group discussed the challenges of cooling data centers in space, with Ajay explaining that radiating heat into space requires large radiators due to the lack of convection and conduction in vacuum. Joe noted that operating chips at higher temperatures could reduce the size of radiators, but this would negatively impact performance. The discussion also covered nuclear propulsion options for space travel, with Ajay expressing skepticism about the feasibility of implementing nuclear electric propulsion for the planned Mars mission within the proposed timeline. The group agreed that nuclear thermal propulsion, while more efficient, would require significant development time and testing.

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 addresses a recent Huffington Post article on the rise in society of the use of the word "retard." Glenn criticizes Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson after she dissented from even her liberal colleagues in a recent SCOTUS decision. Glenn speaks to Stanford University student Taryn Thomas, who was a pro-Palestinian activist who had a change of heart after visiting an exhibit paying tribute to the victims of the Nova Music Festival atrocity. 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. Glenn explains why he has devoted this summer to educating the younger generations.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

What a wild week in space news! We were all set to discuss Starship Test Flight 12 and NASA's recent press conference updating their lunar base plans, when on Thursday night, Blue Origin lost a New Glenn rocket on the pad during a static test. The explosion appears to have severely damaged the launch structure, LC36, along with the loss of the rocket. Fortunately, there were no casualties. But this does throw NASA's schedule for returning American astronauts to the moon into question, given that the agency had recently signaled their choice of Blue Origin's Blue Moon lander for Artemis 4 in 2028. It's now a toss-up between the US and China, with the competition hotter--and closer--than ever. And of course, we'll still discuss Starship and the latest lunar base plans!

With an uncrewed Blue Origin rocket exploding during a hot fire test at Cape Canaveral, Florida, we speak to former NASA engineer Sinead O'Sullivan about how much of a setback it is for Jeff Bezos business in the space race while Elon Musk's SpaceX firm's IPO gets ever closer. Leanne Byrne finds out why the US travel industry is warning that plans being considered by Donald Trump's administration could cost the economy billions of dollars and disrupt one of America's busiest international gateways just weeks before the FIFA World Cup. Elsewhere, we discuss why tech companies in Silicon Valley are hiring philosophers, and do Africa's wealthiest people have a responsibility to help tackle inequality? Global business news, with live guests and contributions from Africa, Europe and the USA.

CannCon and Chris Paul close out May with a Friday that mixes epistemology, geopolitics, and fraud exposure in equal measure. Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket explodes during a test fire at Cape Canaveral, and Chris Paul uses it to open a discussion on predictive programming, the feedback loop between Hollywood and government, and the fundamental epistemological question nobody asks: how do we actually know the things we are told are true? The Trump White House drops a troll page called whitehouse.gov/aliens using UFO language to describe 3.1 million illegal immigrant encounters, and the conversation about real disclosure follows naturally. Axios publishes another Iran deal framework that Chris Paul dismantles piece by piece, noting the media does not know who is negotiating on either side and has published multiple false frameworks already. The CSIS think tank, funded by the Gates Foundation, Open Societies, Rockefeller Brothers, and 16 foreign governments, warns that US weapons stockpiles are depleted after the Iran conflict, and CannCon identifies it as the military industrial complex demanding a rebuild. The national debt interest now consumes 19 cents of every federal tax dollar. A Fox News segment reveals North Carolina had an 11,000 percent increase in autism therapy Medicaid billing in four years, Minnesota 51,000 percent since 2018, and Todd Blanche confirms politicians including Tim Walz and Ilhan Omar are in the scope of accountability.

Iran may be ready to reopen one of the world's most important shipping lanes under a proposed new deal. It could ease pressure on global oil markets, but only if both sides stick to a fragile truce. Plus, Blue Origin is cleaning up after a launch pad explosion, putting another key mission in doubt. And Treasury officials are already preparing for the possibility of a $250 bill featuring Trump's face, even though current law says it can't happen.
