Podcasts about SpaceX

Send us a textThe Ones Ready crew is back with your daily drop, and today's episode is hotter than the LRSO's payload. Jared breaks down the latest in defense news with a healthy dose of sarcasm, fury, and common sense—none of which were found in the FY26 budget. From the Navy's sixth-gen fighter dreams to Putin's never-ending land grab, the episode covers it all. We're talking U.S. evacuation plans in Bahrain, AFRICOM vs EUCOM turf wars, drone warfare budget gymnastics, and why building a micro nuke in Alaska is finally something to get excited about. Oh, and apparently we're ready to go to war over Greenland…?If you like watching bureaucratic chaos unfold in real-time while Jared dunks on generals and defends SpaceX like it's a religion, this one's for you.

Episode 11: The Future of Survival – Colonizing Space

With the Fed decision just days away, Liz Ann Sonders of Schwab sets the stage for markets. Our Megan Cassella tracks progress in China trade talks, and Pippa Stevens asks: are minerals the new geopolitical currency? Francisco Blanch of Bank of America joins to break down the big moves in metals and oil. Later, former Kansas City Fed President Esther George previews what's next from the Fed. Plus: Sam Korus of ARK weighs in on SpaceX's soaring valuation—and we've got Oracle earnings after the bell.

Send us a textThis week on Inspired by Ms Amber Red, things got wild—and not just in our studio. As we were walking into our podcast session, the internet was literally catching fire with the breaking feud between Elon Musk and Donald Trump… and we hit record while it was all unfolding live.

Usterka rakiety firmy SpaceX ponownie opóźniła lot w kosmos polskiego astronauty. Ta zmiana stawia przyszłość startu pod znakiem zapytania. a wśród powodów jest napięty kalendarz firmy Elona Muska i warunki pogodowe. - Podstawowe okno startowe trwa do niedzieli - podkreślał dziennikarz TOK FM Piotr Jaśkowiak.

It was an extraordinary public fight between two billionaires—President Donald Trump, the world's most powerful man, and Elon Musk, the world's richest. On a special bonus episode of the GZERO World Podcast, Ian Bremmer sits down with Semafor co-founder and editor-in-chief Ben Smith to talk about Trump and Musk's messy breakup, what led to the explosive public fallout, and whether there's any chance of reconciliation. Though their feud appears to be cooling down, there's still a lot at stake for both men: namely, Musk's political funding for the GOP ahead of the 2026 midterms and billions in government contracts and subsidies for his companies, which Trump has threatened to cancel. In the battle between politicians and tech oligarchs, who holds more power? Will President Trump's ability to punish his enemies in consequential ways have long-term consequences for Musk? And how does a fight like this change the nature of political journalism when everything is happening in real time in full view of the public? Smith and Bremmer break down the end of the bromance that has defined President Trump's second term and where the administration's relationship with Silicon Valley goes from here.Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Ben Smith Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

For a long time the central part of our galaxy was mostly hidden from us because of all the dust. It was even called the Zone of Avoidance. But with better telescopes and modern techniques we can peer inside and reveal what's hiding. Even build 3D-maps of the region.

Cooler heads shall prevail by faith!A soft answer turns away wrath, but grievous words stir up anger.  The tongue of the wise utters knowledge rightly, but the mouth of the [self-confident] fool pours out folly.  The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch upon the evil and the good. A gentle tongue [with its healing power] is a tree of life, but willful contrariness in it breaks down the spirit. A fool despises his father's instruction and correction, but he who regards reproof acquires prudence. FAITHBUCKS.COM

On this week's Defense & Aerospace Report Business Roundtable, sponsored by Bell, Dr. “Rocket” Ron Epstein of Bank of America Securities, Sash Tusa of the independent equity research firm Agency Partners, and Richard Aboulafia of the AeroDynamic advisory consultancy join host Vago Muradian to discuss an up week on Wall Street as the relationship between Donald Trump and Elon Musk ended acrimoniously after the world's richest man blasted the president's big beautiful bill of legislative priorities, vowing to use the fortune he used to help Trump get elected to punish lawmakers who voted for it as president in turn vowed to punish Musk through his government contracts and other means if he does so; the outlook for SpaceX and the so-called Department of Government Efficiency in the wake of the breakup; the Senate Armed Services Committee's markup of the reconciliation measure that includes big news for military programs; the doubling of steel and aluminum tariffs to 50 percent; new regulations on unmanned systems and supersonic flight over the United States; Britain's most consequential Strategic Defence Review in decades that pledges higher defense spending to boost nuclear capabilities, attack subs, combat aviation, ground and joint warfighting; French concerns that high debt will curb more military spending; and Chinese efforts to curry favor with Europe with preferential access to rare earth elements and ordering hundreds of new Airbus jetliners.

On this week's Look Ahead Podcast, sponsored by HII, Byron Callan of the independent Washington research firm Capital Alpha Partners joins Defense & Aerospace Report Editor Vago Muradian discuss the latest from the Hill as lawmakers grapple with reconciliation, the NDAA and appropriations, a rescission package from the Trump administration, as well as hearings and the Senate Armed Services Committee's reconciliation markup; the implications of the acrimony between President Trump and Elon Musk, and the outlook for SpaceX; a deeper look at Golden Dome in the wake of a major CSIS conference; takeaways from Oshkosh's investor day; important historical lessons from France before World War II; and a look at the week ahead.

“What happens when two of the world's most powerful men start beefing on platforms they own?” That's the explosive question at the heart of this can't-miss episode of The Ben and Skin Show on 97.1 The Eagle.With Ben Rogers out sick, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray take the reins and dive deep into one of the most bizarre and revealing political feuds of our time: Donald Trump vs. Elon Musk.What starts as a ceremonial farewell turns into a behind-the-scenes political power play involving NASA, SpaceX, and a mysterious folder handed to Trump moments before a live broadcast. The crew unpacks the drama, the history, and the absurdity of two billionaires trading blows on their own social media platforms — and what it says about the state of modern politics.This episode is a wild ride through political theater, tech-fueled influence, and the absurdity of modern power dynamics — all delivered with the sharp wit and chemistry of Skin, KT, and Krystina.

While you can't put a price tag on revenge, you can calculate how much Musk has lost in order to fire Donald Trump today. Michael Popok places the timeline for the escalating public firefight between Donald Trump and Elon Musk alongside the stock market, which is punishing Musk by taking away more than 100 billion of wealth because they don't like what the fight is doing to his SpaceX company.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk have been locked in a public fight after Musk spent days bashing Trump's "big, beautiful bill" — a multi-trillion dollar budget key to unlocking the president's agenda currently being voted on in the Senate. In return, the president threatened to cut the federal government's contracts with Musk's companies, including SpaceX.Patrick's Books:Statistics For The Trading Floor: https://amzn.to/3eerLA0Derivatives For The Trading Floor: https://amzn.to/3cjsyPFCorporate Finance: https://amzn.to/3fn3rvC Ways To Support The ChannelPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinanceBuy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/patrickboyleVisit our website: https://www.onfinance.orgFollow Patrick on Twitter Here: https://bsky.app/profile/pboyle.bsky.socialBusiness Inquiries ➡️ sponsors@onfinance.org

HEADLINES the last 48 hours have been dominated by the public spat between President Trump and Elon Musk. What does it mean? To us, it seems like what pro wrestlers call kayfabe—a performance for the audience that looks real but is just an act. It's in the best interests of the government (at least as far as NASA and SpaceX are concerned) and Musk to patch things up. This could be a way to flush out people in the administration who aren't loyal to President Trump. On the other hand, if this is legit it could be President Trump's way of distancing himself from the “tech bros” like Musk, Peter Thiel, and Larry Ellison. We think that's less likely given the Trump administration's commitment to develop artificial intelligence. However, we note recent news stories about AI models that have lied, cheated, and threatened its engineers. And this week, it was reported that the newest OpenAI models rewrote its code during testing to avoid being shut down—in other words, refusing to obey a direct order! Also: Ukraine pulls the world closer to war with Operation Spider's Web; and pro-Israel conference in Dallas next week canceled due to credible security threats.

The Space Force scientist behind the most controversial patents in modern physics reveals how UAPs might actually work through his revolutionary SUPERFORCE theory. Dr. Salvatore Pais explains the physics that could enable propellantless propulsion, inertial mass reduction, and room temperature superconductors.

Welcome to another explosive episode where we dissect the absolute madness happening in American politics right now. If you thought 2025 was going to be boring, think again we're living through governmental reorganization via sledgehammer, and the fallout is everywhere. This comprehensive political news analysis covers Trump policies, immigration reform, government spending, and the unprecedented political drama unfolding in Washington DC. What We're Covering This Episode: Government in Chaos We dive deep into the Department of Homeland Security's epic fail with their "sanctuary cities" list that somehow included cities that literally sued AGAINST sanctuary laws. Plus, FBI Director Kash Patel's reign of chaos that has federal agents fleeing faster than passengers from a sinking ship. Trump Administration Immigration Policy & Border Security From Trump's new 12-country travel ban to the weaponization of a Boulder terror attack, we break down how immigration enforcement is becoming collective punishment. We'll tell you about the Wisconsin case where someone literally forged death threats to get an innocent dishwasher deported because apparently, witness intimidation has gone international. Get the latest on ICE operations, deportation policies, and asylum changes. HR 1 Congressional Bill Analysis: $2.4 Trillion Government Spending This is the big one, folks. Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" is over 1,000 pages of pure governmental chaos that affects federal budget, healthcare reform, student loans, and climate policy. We're talking: $150 billion for defense (including $5 billion just for icebreakers) $78 billion for border security with $1,000 asylum application fees Complete elimination of climate funding while mandating Arctic oil drilling Healthcare cuts that would make Thanos proud Student loan changes that could destroy higher education Elon Musk vs Donald Trump: Political Drama & Stock Market Impact Here's where it gets Netflix-level dramatic: Elon Musk, Trump's supposed efficiency czar, read the bill and absolutely lost it. He called it a "disgusting abomination" and started a Twitter rebellion. Trump's response? Threatening to cancel every government contract with Tesla and SpaceX, wiping out $150 billion in Tesla's stock value in one day. This billionaire feud has major implications for government contracts, electric vehicle policy, and the 2025 political landscape. Artificial Intelligence Regulation & Federal AI Policy Buried in this legislative monster is a 10-year federal preemption on states regulating AI. That's right no state can pass AI safety laws for an entire decade while the federal government throws $2 billion at AI projects, including $200 million for the Pentagon to use AI to figure out where all their money went. This has massive implications for AI governance, tech regulation, and state vs federal authority. Supreme Court Decisions 2025 & Data Privacy In a 6-3 decision that sounds like dystopian fiction, the Supreme Court gave Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency complete access to millions of Americans' personal data from the Social Security Administration. We're talking Social Security numbers, medical records, tax information everything. This SCOTUS ruling has major implications for privacy rights and government surveillance. Culture Wars & Higher Education Policy From renaming the USNS Harvey Milk during Pride Month to Harvard losing permission to host international students, we cover how the culture wars are reshaping institutions across America. This includes updates on diversity and inclusion policies, military culture changes, and university federal funding issues. The Comment Section Reality Check We tackle some tough conversations from our community about accountability, identity, and the uncomfortable truths we need to discuss about where we are as a society. Why This Political News Analysis Episode Matters This isn't just political theater these Trump administration policies will affect your taxes, your healthcare, your student loans, your ability to send money to family abroad, and even whether your state can protect you from AI discrimination.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk's romance comes to a fiery end as the two erupt into an explosive feud, attacking each other across social media. Jon and Dan comb through the insults, including Elon calling for Trump's impeachment, Trump threatening to end all of Elon's government contracts, and, our personal favorite, Elon tweeting that Donald Trump is in the Epstein files. Fun day! The guys also discuss Trump's recent slate of executive orders: another round of attacks on Harvard University, a 2025 version of Trump 1.0's infamous Muslim ban, and an investigation into the alleged coverup of President Biden's mental and physical health. Then, Jon and Lovett sit down with Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson for an extended interview about their New York Times bestselling book, Original Sin, which reckons with Biden's decision to run for reelection.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Today marks the 81st anniversary of D-Day–the Allies landing on the beaches of Normandy to liberate Europe from fascism. As we remember the heroes, we salute the Nazi hunters of then and now. Our resistance lives on. This week, just like early June 1944, was a great week for the resistance. Welcome to the second Gaslit Nation block party of the week. Ukraine launched a stealth campaign, destroying 34% of Russia's warplanes with cheap drones and sheer ingenuity. Meanwhile, in the U.S., the MAGA death cult is imploding. Steve Bannon just declared war on Elon Musk and called for him to be deported, Trump wants to gut Musk's government contracts and Bannon claims an executive order is being drafted to seize SpaceX, and MAGA influencers are melting down. It's an oligarch "Lord of the Flies." Welcome to the second Gaslit Nation block party of the week.  We end on a high note featuring advice from Constitutional law scholar Leah Litman of the Strict Scrutiny podcast and author of Lawless: How the Supreme Court Runs on Conservative Grievance, Fringe Theories, and Bad Vibes.

Today's Headlines: The Trump-Musk fallout escalated from a policy spat to full-blown political chaos in under 12 hours—starting with Trump slamming Musk over his opposition to the GOP budget bill, and spiraling into Musk accusing Trump of electoral dependence, Trump threatening SpaceX contracts, and Musk suggesting Trump appears in Epstein files. Bannon reportedly wants Trump to seize SpaceX and deport Musk. Meanwhile, Democrats on the House Oversight Committee failed to subpoena Musk over AI policy due to GOP opposition. Abroad, German Chancellor Merz met with Trump, urging stronger action on Ukraine, only to be met with bizarre WWII commentary and apathy. Trump also spoke with China's Xi Jinping to restart trade talks and posted about “positive” progress. At home, the Supreme Court struck down a legal standard that imposed stricter proof of bias on majority-group plaintiffs, reaffirming equal treatment. In foreign affairs, Chad announced a reciprocal travel ban on U.S. visitors after Trump's own ban, with a dignified mic drop from its president. And in a surreal courtroom twist, Diddy was nearly kicked out of his trial for making dramatic faces at the jury.

What a wild week it's been for NASA. With drastic budget cuts looming—pending any action by Congress—then comes the sudden and unexpected pulling of Jared Isaacman for the role of NASA Administrator, with no replacement named. Then came the very public split between President Trump and Elon Musk, and a flurry of furious Twitter/X and Truth Social postings, aimed at each other with razor-sharp edges. And finally, the proposed and drastic cuts to NASA outreach and education budgets, slimming them to nearly nothing. These are strange and concerning times for America's space agency, a premier global brand and icon of peaceful American prowess. We turned to Casey Dreier, the Chief of Space Policy for The Planetary Society, who has been quite vocal in his concern, for context. These are critical times for spaceflight, so you won't want to miss this episode!Headlines Trump and Musk "Bromance" Ends: Rod Pyle and Tariq Malik discuss the public falling out between Donald Trump and Elon Musk, which included Trump's threats to cancel SpaceX contracts and Musk's counter-accusations regarding the Jeffrey Epstein files. Commercial Crew Program and Boeing's Starliner: Tariq Malik highlights the critical role of SpaceX's Dragon in NASA's commercial crew program, especially given Boeing's Starliner delays, making NASA dependent on SpaceX for U.S. independent access to space. Japanese ispace Lunar Lander Failure: Rod Pyle and Tariq Malik discuss the second failed attempt by the Japanese company ispace to land its Hakuto-R lunar lander on the moon, losing the European Space Agency's mini-rover, called Tenacious, in the process. Speculation on SpaceX Nationalization: The hosts discuss online speculation, including from Steve Bannon, about the possibility of the U.S. government nationalizing SpaceX, and Elon Musk's subsequent de-escalation. LAUNCH Act: Rod Pyle introduces the bipartisan LAUNCH Act, aimed at streamlining licensing for commercial space companies to encourage more rocket launches with faster approvals. Senate Reconciliation Bill: Tariq Malik and Rod Pyle discuss Senator Ted Cruz's Senate reconciliation bill, which proposes to restore funding for the Space Launch System (SLS), increase NASA's budget by $10 billion, and fund Artemis 4 and 5, missions previously targeted for alternate architectures. 60th Anniversary of First U.S. Spacewalk: The hosts commemorate Ed White's historic spacewalk during the Gemini 4 mission in 1965 and discuss anecdotes and lingering questions surrounding the event. Definition of an Astronaut/Spacewalker Debate: Rod Pyle and Tariq Malik briefly touch on the ongoing debate about what defines an "astronaut" or "spacewalker," given varying definitions and commercial spaceflight. Tribute to Marc Garneau: The hosts pay tribute to Marc Garneau, Canada's first astronaut, who passed away at 76, highlighting his career with the Canadian Space Agency and his later political career. The Dark Age of NASA Science The Planetary Society's Mission: Space policy expert Casey Dreier provides an overview of the Planetary Society, its founding by Carl Sagan, its independence from government and corporate funding, and its projects like the Lightsail 2.

Story of the Week (DR):The Baby Billionaire Bromance is Over: Savannah Guthrie Says Elon Musk and Donald Trump Are 'Giving 7th Grade Girl' as President Says Tesla CEO 'Has Lost His Mind'"It's so confusing isn't it? So much going wrong, so much to say, and all of it happening so quickly. The pace of oppression outstrips our ability to understand it. And that is the real trick of the Imperial thought machine.”BlackRock removed from Texas boycott list after quitting climate groupsIn a notable reversal, Texas removed BlackRock from its investment blacklistThis decision followed BlackRock's withdrawal from several climate-focused initiatives, including the Net Zero Asset Managers alliance and Climate Action 100+Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar cited these actions, along with BlackRock's support for the new Texas Stock Exchange, as reasons for the delisting.“More than $4 billion in Texas funds are invested with BlackRock,” the rep said.The Larry Fink-led company had $11.55 trillion in assets under management at the end of the fourth quarter in 2024.0.0346% Is that possible?Larry Fink; $31M; $11M bonus: “These amounts represent the discretionary annual cash Bonuses … The amount of incentive compensation awarded … was based on subjective criteria”“Lead in a changing world: Completed the creation of a more modern and unified Corporate Affairs function and leveraged the function to refresh the firm's corporate narrative and strengthen its brand.”“Corporate sustainability: Achieved BlackRock's 100% renewable electricity match goal and enhanced the Company's approach to procuring market solutions.”32% said NO on Pay (BlackRock owns 6% of BlackRock)99% said NO to Bowyer Research's theatrical request for a report on “risks related to a perceived shift away from a traditional understanding of fiduciary responsibility to stakeholder capitalism, implied by its assent to the Business Roundtable's Statement on the Purpose of a Corporation, as well as a high-profile embrace of ESG and DEI.”BlackRock CEO Larry Fink has some words of wisdom for leaders navigating the age of populism and social media: Watch what you say: "You have to be a lot more guarded. I can't say everything I really want to say to all of you right now. The reality is you have to be a lot more systematic in what you say and how you say it internally or externally. I mean, we live in a terrarium today. We live in a glass bottle."Big brands are pulling back on Pride merchandise and events this year MMCorporate America Pulls Back from PRIDE in 2025, No Rainbow Logos from Big Brands as June StartsUnitedHealth Group AGM:94% average director support93% Stephen HemsleyHemsley is stepping forward to acknowledge the fallout and chart a new course, promising a comprehensive review of some of the company's most controversial practices.The Wall Street Journal noted in its report on the company's annual shareholder meeting on Monday that Hemsley apologized for UnitedHealth's recent performance and cited a need to rethink many internal processes.99% for directors like Paul Garcia (2021/ former CEO of Global Payments) and Kristen Gil (2022/former VP, Business Finance Officer at Alphabet)92% for Michele Hooper (2007/Lead Independent Director/CEO of The Directors' Council, a private company she co-founded in 2003 that works with corporate boards to increase their independence, effectiveness and diversity)-12% gender influence gap/only 3 women/zero committee chairs)Lowest vote is John Noseworthy, M.D. (86%) former CEO of the Mayo Clinic40% NO on PaySHP excessive golden parachutes 13% YESThe board authorized the payment of a cash dividend of $2.21 per share, up from the prior dividend of $2.10, to be paid June 24 to common stock shareholders of record as of the close of business June 16Hemsley: as of the proxy date: $2.8M (as of 5/16: $3.8M)The previous dividend was $2.10 per share, paid on March 18, 2025The company also suspended its 2025 outlook.Goodliest of the Week (MM/DR):DR: The Trump EPA tried to bury some good newsA climate report acquired by a Freedom of Information Act request shows that U.S. climate pollution declined in 2023.The EPA report documents that in 2023, U.S. climate pollution fell by 2.3%. That's about 147 million metric tons, or MMT, of reduced carbon dioxide-equivalent greenhouse gases.2023 was the first full year after President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act, the Democrats' signature climate law that committed hundreds of billions of dollars to reducing climate pollution.DR: How a Peruvian farmer's legal defeat raised new risks for companies DRPeruvian farmer Saúl Luciano Lliuya filed a lawsuit against German energy company RWE, asserting that the company's greenhouse gas emissions contributed to the melting of glaciers near his hometown of Huaraz, Peru.This glacial melt increases the risk of flooding from Lake Palcacocha, threatening his community. Lliuya sought approximately $17,500 from RWE, representing 0.47% of the estimated $4 million needed for flood defenses, corresponding to RWE's estimated share of global emissions since the industrial era began. On May 28, 2025, the Higher Regional Court in Hamm, Germany, dismissed Lliuya's lawsuit. The court acknowledged the legal principle that major greenhouse gas emitters can be held liable for climate-related damages. However, it concluded that the specific threat to Lliuya's property was not sufficiently imminent to warrant compensation. While Lliuya did not secure the compensation sought, the court's recognition of potential corporate liability for climate damages sets a precedent. This acknowledgment may influence future climate litigation, encouraging individuals and communities to hold major emitters accountable for their contributions to climate change.MM: HahahahahahahahahaMusk says SpaceX will decommission Dragon spacecraft after Trump threatElon Musk Melts Down, Claims Trump Is In The "Epstein Files" and That's the Reason They Haven't Been ReleasedElon Musk Declares That He's "Immediately" Cutting Off NASA's Access to SpaceMusk Privately Complaining That His Immense Donations to Trump Didn't Even Buy Him Control of NASAElon Musk claims ‘without me, Trump would have lost the election'Assholiest of the Week (MM): Proxy advisorsZevra TherapeuticsISS added, “...the board's concerns about having a former CEO on the board and potential disruption are valid.”Out of 92,594 active directors in MSCI data from February, 3,123 are tagged as “former executives” at the company they're on the board of522 US companies are on the list - FIVE HUNDRED AND TWENTY TWOThat includes at least one company - National Healthcare Corp - with FOUR former executives on the boardIt also includes 104 large cap companies - like Hewlett Packard, with 3 former execs!Glass Lewis highlighted, “Mr. Regan has limited, dated, and unrelated public board service,”Egan-Jones also questioned the relevant expertise of Mangless' nominees, stating, “…we do not believe Mr. Regan's background in proxy solicitation offers meaningful value in the context of Zevra's boardroom.”Unrelated public board experience??

U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to cut off government contracts to Elon Musk's companies after he suggested the President should be impeached. Elon Musk threatens – and then rolls it back – a decommission of SpaceX's Dragon – the only U.S. spacecraft capable of sending astronauts to the ISS. And we look at Trump's travel ban as the administration intensifies its immigration crackdown. * This pod has been updated to remove references to a potential telephone call between President Trump and Elon Musk.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s relationship imploded this week like a star going supernova as the two took to social media to take jabs at each other. At stake are the future of Musk’s companies, including electric car company Tesla and rocket manufacturer SpaceX, both of which receive government subsidies or contracts. President Trump took to his social media website, Truth Social, yesterday to threaten subsidies to Musk’s companies. Musk then threatened to decommission SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft, which the country’s space agency, NASA, has come to depend on heavily to ferry cargo and astronauts to the International Space Station on a regular basis. Musk later walked back this threat. NASA is said to have few viable alternatives to the Musk-owned company, as many of SpaceX’s competitors are still catching their technology up with the company.
