Private tech companies going public have accelerated in recent months, seen in debuts like CoreWeave (CRWV) and Circle (CRCL). Christian Munafo talks about what's driving the pace in demand for tech IPOs and why larger companies like SpaceX and Databricks are taking their time. He adds that mega caps like Alphabet (GOOGL) and Microsoft (MSFT) are continually searching for innovation, and Christian says they often pluck companies from the IPO basket.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

« Objectif Mars », « Mars, la nouvelle frontière de la conquête spatiale », titre le Nouvel Obs, avec en Une, une splendide photo, celle d'une planète où se mêlent harmonieusement l'orange et le rouge. Un peu comme dans un rêve, mais ne rêvons pas trop longtemps, car la réalité se mesure en termes de puissance et d'argent. « La planète Mars est aujourd'hui le Graal intersidéral, nous dit le Nouvel Obs, le terrain des grandes puissances, avec la Chine comme nouvel acteur. L'Amérique de Trump en a fait son nouveau fétiche, promettant les premiers pas de l'homme sur Mars d'ici à 2029, avant la fin du mandat du président. »  Qu'importe si tous les scientifiques s'accordent à dire que c'est parfaitement impossible. Donald Trump y croit-il lui-même ? En tout cas, il mène le jeu comme n'importe quelle autre affaire commerciale. « Trump et ses amis de la tech mettent en danger les programmes de la Nasa basés sur la coopération internationale, pour privilégier les progrès strictement nationaux, nous explique le Nouvel Obs. « Derrière les accents triomphants annonçant la colonisation de Mars pour les prochaines années (…) se cache la captation des crédits publics par quelques "entreprises amies", celles des barons de la tech qui ont soutenu la campagne de Trump, avec en tête Elon Musk avec Space X et Jeff Bezos avec Blue Origin. ».Les passionnés, qui regardent la planète rouge avec des yeux d'enfant, en seront pour leurs frais. À lire aussiIl y a 60 ans, la sonde Mariner 4 révélait à l'humanité le vrai visage de Mars La fin de la guerre ? Après l'annonce d'une rencontre entre Trump et Poutine le 15 août en Alaska, le Journal du Dimanche (JDD) pose la question : « Et si la guerre se terminait la semaine prochaine ? », question faussement innocente, car l'analyse qui suit tend plutôt à démontrer le contraire. « Personne ne peut croire que la paix soit l'issue de ce tête-à-tête », estime le JDD. La Tribune Dimanche, de son côté, met l'accent sur ce qu'elle estime être l'ambition première de Donald Trump : « le président américain se rêve en prix Nobel de la paix, et multiplie les initiatives pour y parvenir. Le sommet du 15 août avec Vladimir Poutine est un pas de plus sur le chemin de son ambition ». À la question « le sommet du 15 août pourrait-il accoucher du plus grand succès diplomatique de la seconde présidence Trump ?  David Salvo, analyste au German Marshall Fund, interrogé par la Tribune dimanche, répond : « Washington sous-estime à quel point le Kremlin veut continuer à mener cette guerre, la légitimité et le sort du régime poutinien ne dépendent pas seulement de la fin de ce conflit aux conditions dictées par la Russie, mais à sa prolongation jusqu'à nouvel ordre, avec une économie entièrement consacrée à cette guerre ».   Bref, personne ne croit vraiment à un miracle pour le 15 août. À lire aussiUkraine: «Il n'y a qu'au prix de conditions favorables à la Russie que Poutine pourrait mettre fin au conflit» L'appétit du géant russe La guerre en Ukraine que les pays baltes suivent avec une attention particulière. L'Express s'est rendu en Estonie, le plus petit des trois pays baltes qui comptent aussi la Lettonie et la Lituanie. L'Estonie (avec moins d'1,35 million d'habitants) qui partage « 300 kilomètres de ligne de démarcation avec la Russie », « une frontière de tous les dangers, explique le Nouvel Obs, face à ce grand voisin avide de conquêtes. » « L'Otan pourrait être testée sur sa capacité à réagir "d'ici à cinq ans", répète son secrétaire général Mark Rutte », nous rappelle l'Express, qui a aussi consulté une récente étude de la Revue nationale stratégique française, « jugeant plausible une guerre majeure de haute intensité en Europe ».  Cette étude souligne aussi « que le renforcement de l'armée russe se poursuit de façon accélérée pour recompléter de nombreux matériels détruits en Ukraine, mais également pour développer de nouvelles capacités et renforcer son arsenal d'ici à 2030 ». L'Estonie, elle, ne peut guère compter que sur ses 4 000 militaires de métier et ses appelés. Et puis bien sûr, il y a l'Otan. Un officier américain, dont le régiment s'entraîne en Estonie, témoigne : « Nous sommes ici pour changer les calculs de l'adversaire, le dissuader d'une agression et respecter notre engagement de l'article 5 de l'Otan. » Article qui stipule « qu'une attaque contre un État appartenant à l'Alliance atlantique est une attaque contre tous. Et qu'elle ne restera pas sans réponse. » Mais cette perspective arrêtera-t-elle Vladimir Poutine ? Rien n'est moins sûr. « À quelle échéance les Russes pourraient-ils passer à l'action ? », interroge l'Express, qui cite une source sécuritaire, selon laquelle « les Russes n'ont pas besoin d'arrêter la guerre en Ukraine, il leur suffit d'amasser des unités à la frontière, puis de prendre une décision politique ». Une perspective effrayante pour l'Estonie, mais aussi la Lettonie et la Lituanie.

If we're ever to make Mars a second home, we have some serious housekeeping to do... as in a total renovation. The Red Planet has little atmosphere, no radiation shielding, and some seriously toxic soil. How can we make it more Earthlike... and should we? Dr. Erika Alden DeBenedictis joins us to discuss how terraforming might work, how it could be done in decades instead of millennia, and the questions surrounding the ethics of changing another planet to suit humanity's needs. We say it's a trailer park of a planet, but the best bet for human expansion. Dr. Rick Jenet is this week's co-host. Join us for the conversation! Headlines: NASA aims to place a nuclear reactor on the moon by 2030, competing with China's similar plans for the Moon. NASA's planned commercial space stations are facing delays. As ISS retirement nears, the U.S. risks losing its foothold in low-Earth orbit within the coming years. SpaceX hits 100 launches in 2025, dominating global orbital launch activity and enabling rapid rocket reuse. Main Topic: High-Speed Terraforming of Mars Guest Dr. Erika Alden DeBenedictis shares new, biotech-driven concepts for terraforming Mars much faster than traditional proposals. Dr. DeBenedictis shares a modern understanding of Mars' past and present environment, including radiation, toxic perchlorate-laced soil, and thin atmosphere. Discussion on the importance and challenges of Mars Sample Return for accurate soil and resource analysis. Modern synthetic biology as a tool for creating microbes tailored for Martian soil and future terraforming. A step-by-step outline by Dr. DeBenedictis on building a breathable Mars atmosphere via engineered photosynthetic microbes, engineered atmospheric warming, and greenhouse construction. Exploration of the ethical considerations and philosophical implications of turning Mars into a habitable "garden," weighing preservation versus transformation. Dr. DeBenedictis makes a case for Martian settlement, terraforming technology, and legal and resource challenges for commercial space expansion. And Dr. DeBenedictis' vision for Mars' future as a unique, partially Earth-like biosphere with new opportunities in planetary stewardship and human adaptation of the planet.

If nothing escapes a black hole, how does gravity escape? Could we detect a faster-than-light spaceship cruising through the Solar System? What does JWST really orbit at L2? And in Q&A+, could the Universe have started as a black hole?

In this episode of Building the Base, Hondo Geurts and Lauren Bedula sit down with Zach Beecher, Partner at Scout Ventures, who brings a unique perspective from serving as a paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne Division in Iraq to now leading dual-use technology investments on the front lines of defense innovation. Drawing from his combat experience witnessing "innovation at the speed of battle" during the liberation of Mosul from ISIS, his transition through venture capital in London, and his current role backing breakthrough defense technologies, Beecher discusses the urgent need to bridge Silicon Valley innovation with national security imperatives. He shares his insights on why "innovation at the speed of bureaucracy looks a lot different than innovation at the speed of battle," explains how venture capital can serve as a "player coach" for defense entrepreneurs, and argues that America must grow the industrial base through addition rather than subtraction by incentivizing collaboration between traditional primes and non-traditional startups.Five key takeaways from today's episode:Combat experience reveals innovation potential, as Beecher describes how deploying to Iraq in 2017 exposed him to soldiers thinking on their feet to solve dynamic battlefield challenges, from integrating off-the-shelf drones for Iraqi forces to creating software solutions for logistics, showing him that "innovation at the speed of battle" could be transformative if scaled properly.The dual-use investment landscape has dramatically evolved, Beecher notes, from being called a "warmonger" on a panel just two years ago for suggesting quantum companies focus on national security applications, to today's environment where "the capital ladder" from early stage through scaled production is "fully formed in a way that it's never been before."Contracts are the only validation that matters, Beecher emphasizes, because "contracts signify demand and contracts ultimately indicate what the government has identified as a priority," warning that without real customer validation through actual purchases, even well-funded startups risk "building a bridge to nowhere."Success requires mastering four core pillars, Beecher explains entrepreneurs must understand the problems they're solving, the people responsible for solving them, the processes required to navigate solutions, and how their products integrate across all three, with companies like Tern AI demonstrating this by addressing alternative navigation needs for both military operations and commercial autonomous vehicles.Collaboration beats competition in defense innovation, as Beecher advocates for "leading through addition rather than subtraction," pointing to examples like NASA's commercial orbital program that sparked competition between traditional primes and companies like SpaceX, ultimately transforming entire industries through incentivized partnership rather than zero-sum thinking.

In this episode, Matt Mueller, a SpaceX veteran and co-founder of Glīd, shares his experiences and lessons learned from leading technical teams in high-stakes environments. He talks about his early days managing a team of experienced technicians at Honeywell and transitioning to leading engineers at SpaceX. Matt discusses the challenges of balancing technical expertise with managerial responsibilities, the importance of understanding team context, and strategies for staying connected to the technical side while leading effectively. He also introduces his current work at Glīd, a startup aimed at streamlining road-to-rail freight transportation. This episode provides practical insights for managers in technical fields who are seeking ways to effectively lead their teams and stay engaged with both people and technical challenges.

Franklin Foer, staff writer at The Atlantic, talks about his Atlantic feature story on the implications of NASA's reliance on Elon Musk's SpaceX.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into significant developments in space exploration, from Australia's latest rocket launch attempt to groundbreaking theories about the origins of life.Australia's ERIS 1 Rocket Launch: A Learning ExperienceIn a dramatic turn of events, Gilmour Space's ERIS 1 rocket experienced a failure just seconds after liftoff, marking Australia's first orbital rocket launch in years. Despite the setback, CEO Adam Gilmour emphasizes the lessons learned from the test flight, which will inform the design and operation of future launches. The rocket's ascent was initially promising, but engine failures led to a crash shortly after clearing the launch tower. Fortunately, no injuries or environmental damage occurred, and the mission provided valuable data that will enhance the next attempt.Life's Origins: A Cosmic PerspectiveA new study suggests that the building blocks of life may have originated in outer space rather than on Earth. Using the ALMA radio telescope, astronomers detected complex organic molecules in the protoplanetary disk of the protostar UH V883 Orionis. These findings indicate that essential compounds, such as ethylene glycol and glycolonitrile, are not only present in various cosmic environments but may also be the precursors to amino acids and other vital biological components. This research supports the notion that the seeds of life are widespread throughout the universe.Boeing's Starliner Delays ContinueBoeing's Starliner spacecraft faces further delays, now pushed back to at least 2026 before it can carry humans into space. Ongoing technical issues have plagued the project, including helium leaks and thruster control problems. NASA is working closely with Boeing to address these challenges, but the timeline for crewed missions remains uncertain as SpaceX continues to lead in transporting astronauts to the International Space Station.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstrophysical Journal Lettershttps://iopscience.iop.org/journal/1538-4357NASA's Commercial Crew Programhttps://www.nasa.gov/exploration/commercial/crew/index.htmlGilmour Spacehttps://gilmourspace.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.00:00 A new study says the evolution of life may well have origins in outer space00:47 Gilmour Space's Ares 1 orbital rocket crashed two seconds after launch10:37 A new study says the evolution of life may have origins in outer space11:28 Astronomers find 17 complex organic molecules in distant planet forming disk19:35 New study finds images can shape public opinion regardless of true facts22:06 World Meteorological Organization says megaflash stretched 829km in 2017

The rise of Elon—and why he is still involved with our government—has everything to do with the dimming of America's one-time crown jewel, NASA. We are now dependent on his rockets and his satellites because Obama and the U.S. government saved SpaceX. Of course, Elon's hypocrisy knows no bounds, because when he had the power, he quickly worked to dismantle the very same government that came to his rescue. The Atlantic's Franklin Foer explains how NASA engineered its own decline, as well as Elon's prophecy about becoming the engineer savior who colonizes Mars. Plus, Zelensky's giant misstep on corruption, and how humanitarian groups need to get back into Gaza to flood it with food. Frank Foer joins Tim Miller. show notes Frank's reporting on NASA and Musk Frank on Zelensky's misstep on corruption Tim's FYPod
