    Have you thought about investing into space? Mark Boggett, CEO of Seraphim, shares the investment opportunities in the rapidly expanding space industry. He explains how innovations led by SpaceX dramatically lowered launch costs and increased access to space, catalyzing growth in satellite constellations and data-driven applications for defense, climate, and communications. He emphasizes that near-term investment potential lies in defense and climate-related uses of satellite data, rather than speculative ventures like space travel or asteroid mining. He also highlights the growing importance of sustainability, debris management, and more. We discuss... Mark Boggett is a career technology investor who founded Seraphim Space, the world's first space-focused investment fund. Seraphim Space operates a global accelerator, a private venture fund, and a publicly listed growth fund on the London Stock Exchange. Boggett shifted focus to space investing after recognizing how technologies like AI, telecommunications, and 3D printing were transforming the sector. SpaceX revolutionized space access by reducing launch costs from $86,000 to $1,000 per kilogram and dramatically increasing launch frequency. Smaller, cheaper satellites now enable massive constellations that provide real-time Earth observation and global connectivity. Investment opportunities in space fall into three categories: upstream (launch and satellites), downstream (data and applications), and in-space (future lunar and interplanetary activities). The most investable areas today are defense and climate-related satellite data applications rather than speculative space travel or mining. The falling cost of launch is paving the way for large-scale space infrastructure, including future data centers powered by solar energy. Space debris is an emerging challenge, driving new industries focused on monitoring, avoiding, and removing defunct satellites. Regulatory changes now require satellite operators to deorbit defunct satellites within five years, accelerating growth in orbital cleanup services. Defense is a major driver of demand for satellite technology in intelligence, communications, navigation, and asset protection. The "in-space" category includes lunar landers, space stations, and eventual habitation or mining ventures, though these remain long-term prospects. NASA's new funding model relies on private companies like Axiom Space and Voyager to build commercial space stations. Boggett concludes that while long-term prospects like lunar mining are exciting, the current trillion-dollar opportunity lies in satellites, data, and communication serving Earth-based customers.

    Gene therapy isn't science fiction anymore, it's becoming one of the most exciting frontiers in diabetes care. In this episode, Dr. Jeremy Pettus and Dr. Steve Edelman sit down with Dr. Fraser Wright, career gene therapist and Co-Founder/Chief Gene Therapy Officer at Kriya Therapeutics, to explore how gene therapy could one day help the body make its own insulin.Together, they unpack what gene therapy actually is, Dr. P's involvement as a medical consultant for Kriya Therapeutics, how AAV (adeno-associated virus) vectors work, and what makes this “one-and-done” approach so different from traditional treatments. From success stories in blindness and hemophilia to emerging type 1 diabetes studies, the trio breaks down the science, the safety, and the hope behind this revolutionary research.You'll learn how gene therapy has moved from rare diseases to more common ones, why the first human trials in diabetes are on the horizon, and what and what this could mean for long-term blood sugar control and independence from injections.Key Topics:Gene Therapy 101: How gene therapy differs from protein-based drugs like insulin, and why AAV vectors act as safe, engineered delivery vehicles rather than infectious viruses.Why AAV, Why Now: Seven FDA-approved AAV-based therapies have proven the potential of long-term, single-dose treatments.From Eyes to Endocrine: Lessons learned from retinal gene therapy are now guiding approaches to metabolic conditions like diabetes.The Type 1 Diabetes Approach: A muscle-targeted program aims to help the body naturally produce insulin and stabilize blood sugar levels.Control and Safety: Built-in glucose sensing and the ability to turn off gene expression ensure precision and reversibility.Real-World Considerations: How exercise, treatment site, and existing technologies like pumps or CGMs could work alongside this therapy.0:00 – Intro: Jeremy and Steve introduce gene therapy and why this topic is a game-changer2:15 – What gene therapy is and how it's different from standard protein-based treatments4:54 – Understanding AAV: safety, engineering, and why it's the preferred delivery method8:50 – Real-world success: seven FDA-approved AAV therapies for genetic diseases12:20 – Lessons learned from treating blindness and how they apply to diabetes17:40 – The Type 1 Diabetes model: using muscle tissue to produce insulin22:15 – Managing control, glucose sensing, and preventing hypoglycemia25:50 – Safety measures and how treatment can be reversed locally if needed28:30 – Exercise, durability, and what animal studies reveal about real-life performance31:10 – Timelines, trials, and what's next for gene therapy in diabetes.

Hors-Norme Après Paul Verhoeven et Marc Caro, notre émission reçoit son troisième réalisateur depuis le début de cette sixième saison . Jan Kounen nous a fait le plaisir de venir présenter et expliquer les dessous de son Homme qui Rétrécit. Cette deuxième adaptation de Richard Matheson met en scène un Jean Dujardin bloqué dans sa cave alors que son corps ne cesse de rétrécir. Jan Kounen revient sur l'importance des trucages visuels pour arriver à créer cette échelle minuscule en utilisant les VFX le moins possible. Le cinéaste de Doberman et 99 Francs évoque également son lien avec Jean Dujardin et son arrivé sur ce projet très ambitieux ou il a fallu réaliser le film le plus vite possible pour des questions contractuelles avec La Paramount.

    What starts as a curiosity, a light on the bedroom ceiling that seems to have no source, heralds the appearance of a huge eye that just watches and watches. Genre: Mystery, Science Fiction, Horror   Excerpt: I yelled out.  The hazel iris shifted toward me.  I slowly slid off the bed... dashed to the door, flung it open, and pulled it closed behind me.  Okay, okay, think. I have to… I had cried out. Someone must have heard. Someone would come knocking on my door. Normally I didn't want that. But right now, right now I might want that. I might want that.   What story or stories am I revisiting in this episode? Each Season 8 episode is a standalone story, but it's connected to or inspired by a previous story through a character, a place, an object, a concept, a continuation of events (ahem, sequel), and so on. A previous story about an organ growing in the walls of someone's bedroom is “Chemoimagination.”   Creepy coincidence?One night, after I posted this story, I'd plugged in a mini-fan to charge next to my bed. I woke up in the middle of the night and saw a glowing green eye on my ceiling. The fan had finished charging, and the indicator light happened to be facing up to the ceiling. And it happened to be the same shape and size of the eye I describe in my story. It didn't scare me. I immediately knew what I was. But I did sleepily think something akin to “heh, good one.”   MY FIRST BOOK (yay)Ever wonder how I've gotten all these hundreds of stories written?  I have a method. And I talk all about it in my book called Fictioneer's Field Guide: A Game Plan for Writing Short Stories. It's now available from Amazon as an eBook, paperback, and hardcover. You can also get there from my Store page: STORYFEATHER STORE   The Store page also has sign-up forms for my two email newsletters: Storyfeather Gazette (if you'd like to keep up with the fiction I create) Fictioneer's Field Guide (if you'd like writing tips and guidance from me) Choose what you want.

Central figure, a woman, her top half, seen from below at an angle. She's facing away, standing in a room where the ceiling and parts of two walls intersect at her left, around waist level. The woman wears pants and a t-shirt and her hair in a ponytail. She holds a carving knife in her right hand, held down and behind herself.  Her left hand reaches up towards a huge eye in the ceiling. Most of the iris and a small portion of the whites are visible. Eyelashes extend out at left. Watermark of “Storyfeather” along wall in image at left. The rectangular image is made square with top and bottom borders with blurred portions of the main image.
