STREAMING THE MAKING OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, FEATURING GRANT NEWSHAM, 4-14-20261909 BRUSSELS.Host John Bachelor discusses a wide variety of geopolitical and historical topics, beginning with the unpredictable nature of the Trump administration and its impact on global markets. He highlights the profitability of American corporations like JP Morgan and the success of private space ventures like SpaceX, which he credits to visionary government subsidies from NASA. Transitioning to his personal reading list, Bachelor summarizes narrative historiescovering the secretive religious themes in Vermeer's art, the NKVD's assassination of Leon Trotsky, and the collapse of global trade during the Bronze Age. He is joined by Colonel Grant Newsham, who provides analysis on the U.S. naval blockade of Iran and the strategic challenges of securing the Strait of Hormuz. Together, they critique China's predatory economic model, comparing its subsidized manufacturing surplus and use of forced labor to a modern-day plantation system. Their dialogue concludes by examining how China's lack of corporate profitability and currency manipulation threaten to destabilize international competition.

Tim Conway Jr. Hour 4 (4.14) Enquiring listener minds want to know what some of the Timmy C crew look like — and we discuss Conway’s strenuous weightlifting regime. The SpaceX rocket is going to launch in about seven minutes! Are men bigger pigs than women? And what on earth did Karen Bass do to save the schools from the teachers' strike? Everybody loves The Foosh — surprisingly he’s a normal-sized guy! He’s a normal sized, handsome dude! And what’s a sugar wall? Look west. Now, look up. Right now! I’m serious, there’s a rocket launch up there. Check it out! Timmy raced up to the roof to see for himself the glory of that big-ass orange tail streaking across the inky LA sky. Well, it’s official, folks — Sheena Easton was a huge hit on tonight’s show and all the listeners just loved her! But not as much as they love The Foosh. And his sugar wall. Say, what IS a sugar wall? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Scott Nolan spent 12 years at Founders Fund looking for the most important problems that no one else was funding. Then he found a problem so critical, and so ignored, that he couldn't find a company to back. So he started one. General Matter is rebuilding US uranium enrichment. The United States was the world leader in enrichment through the 1980s and then stopped entirely. Today roughly a quarter of US enriched uranium comes from Russia, a ban on those imports takes full effect in 2028, and the advanced reactors everyone is counting on to power the next wave of data centers have no reliable domestic fuel source. Scott believes enrichment is the single bottleneck to a nuclear future, and that the window to solve it is narrow. The conversation covers how Peter Thiel influenced him, why being in love with an idea is dangerous for investors but required for founders, and what it actually takes to rebuild an industrial capability the country let atrophy for 40 years. Please enjoy my conversation with Scott Nolan.

The success of Artemis II, including Friday's splashdown, brought new excitement to space exploration. Is this a good use of taxpayer money? Can the U.S. beat China's 2030 target for the next lunar landing? And how have private companies, including SpaceX and Blue Origin, changed the calculus? James B. Meigs joins to discuss.

Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 3 (4.13) There's a big Lululemon lawsuit being brought by the Texas AG regarding the possibility of forever plastics present in the brand’s garments. Now, let’s talk about cholesterol. Did you see the SpaceX rocket launch last Friday night? Timmy got a great vid of it you can check out on his Instagram @conwayshow. Apparently, seltzer water causes colorectal cancer. It’s due to the higher levels of PFAs due to the cans and bottles. Everybody loves tomatoes. But the price of the magnificent fruit is going up more than any other produce. And it’s blamed on US tariffs on Mexico. Apparently, gas is ever so slightly cheaper. The average price in California is $5.89. Smokey Robinson is back in the news, losing his request for dismissal of the civil cases being brought against him by former workers. The Ontario warehouse that burned last week has incurred $500 million in damage and losses. And Ontario Mills mall was also set ablaze last week. Another scam? This one’s a doozy and designed to steal your personal information. It starts online with verification that you’re a human and not a robot. Breaking news: Earthquake in Nevada. Six Flags Magic Mountain has been hit with a $533 million drop in value. Has the NFL engaged in anti-competitive tactics? The Justice Department is now investigating.

Most teams think leadership at SpaceX is about speed, pressure, and technical brilliance. Hans Koenigsmann, former VP of Build and Flight Reliability and one of the earliest employees at SpaceX, describes something more subtle: it's about constantly operating outside your comfort zone, and learning how to make decisions when everything is changing at once.In this conversation, Hans reflects on what it was like growing with SpaceX from a handful of people to over 14,000 employees, and how that scale forced him to repeatedly shift not just his role, but his identity as a leader. He talks about moving away from being a “generalist who can duct tape things together” toward finding where he could actually be useful at system level.We also get into how he thinks about risk, not as something objective, but as something deeply personal. Hans explains why you should never evaluate risk alone, how teams normalize danger over time, and why diverse perspectives matter more than most formal risk frameworks.There's also a strong theme around leadership humility. Hans shares how SpaceX changed his perspective on ego, company alignment, and what it actually means to put organizational goals ahead of individual ones — especially when decisions get uncomfortable.And throughout the episode, one idea keeps coming up: growth doesn't come from staying in control, it comes from repeatedly stepping into situations where you're not.If you're interested in how high-performance technical organizations actually operate behind the scenes, this one is worth your time.Episode Highlights00:00 Stepping outside your comfort zone03:10 Scaling from early SpaceX to 14,000+ people06:00 Finding where you're actually useful as a leader08:30 Leadership training and what doesn't translate11:30 Why risk is personal, not objective14:05 How teams normalize risk over time15:59 Learning from other people's failures17:54 Thinking about launch costs and competitionKey TakeawaysLeadership roles shift dramatically as organizations scale, even if titles stay the same.Generalists often need to reposition themselves as systems become more specialized.Risk perception is personal and changes based on experience and context.Teams need diverse perspectives to properly evaluate risk.You should never evaluate risk in isolation.Most of leadership growth comes from operating outside your comfort zone repeatedly.Learning from other people's failures is one of the fastest ways to build judgment.Humility and company alignment become more important as organizations scale.Links & ResourcesHans KoenigsmannLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/hans-koenigsmann-2a141b5Matt GjertsenWebsite: https://www.bettereverydaystudios.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewgjertsen/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BetterEveryDayStudios

18 jaar lang was Google aan de macht binnen de advertentiemarkt. Met hun platform voor adverteerders wisten ze iedereen in de houdgreep te krijgen. Maar nu moet Alphabet die titel afstaan. Meta lijkt namelijk hun score te overtreffen, met ruim 240 miljard dollar aan advertentie-inkomsten dit jaar. Hoe pijnlijk is dat voor Google? En wat betekent het voor beide aandelen? Dat hoor je in deze aflevering. Dan hebben we het ook over het cijferseizoen dat begint. Het kan wel eens het beste in jaren worden. Sinds 2021 werden er niet zulke winststijgingen verwacht binnen de S&P 500. Maar daarna is het ook gelijk klaar met het feest. Het IMF schets een drietal scenario's voor de rest van het jaar, en die zijn stuk voor stuk niet best. En ook JP Morgan Chase-topman Jamie Dimon waarschuwt (zoals hij wel vaker doet) voor een hele lijst aan risico's. Alleen is die lijst nu wel nog wat verder gegroeid. Verder hoor je over een mogelijke fusie, die tot de grootste luchtvaartmaatschappij ter wereld zou kunnen leiden. United Airlines en American Airlines zouden een plan aan president Trump hebben voorgelegd om samen te gaan. Alleen is het vooral de vraag wat Europa van die fusie zou vinden.

Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren.

We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie. Van Musk tot Microsoft en van Ahold tot ASML. Wij vertellen je wat beleggers bezighoudt, wie de markten in beweging zet en wat dat betekent voor jouw beleggingsportefeuille.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode 1 of the Weekly HyperChange Podcast. This week we cover Anthropic passing OpenAI's revenue run-rate in a massive AI industry flex. I'm joined by my homie Jfilche aka the CLAUDE GOD to help us breakdown this epic milestone. We also discuss some Tesla news about the Cybercab and then finish up rambling about space startup Reflect Orbital and then Blue Origin. Oh and a shoutout to my new book, the book of Elon.Jfilche on X: https://x.com/Jfilche0:00 Intro0:24 Anthropic Revenue Passes OpenAI3:24 Jfilchê Joins The Show aka THA CLAUDE GOD12:27 Random British Guy Joins The Show13:39 Learn Claude Or Get Left Behind16:07 Anthropic's New Mythos Model17:54 Will Anthropic Stay Ahead26:20 Tesla Developing Cheaper/Smaller EV?29:44 Will Tesla Sell The Cybercab???33:45 Anthropic vs OpenAI In Year ..?!37:18 Startup of the Week: Reflect Orbital40:25 Bullish On Blue Origin43:51 The Book of Elon47:12 Prediction: Anthropic Hits $100B Revenue Run-RateMy X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: We're invested in SpaceX & South 40 Snacks and Tesla. Nothing in this show is financial advice.

We kick off with a the Dodgers spanking the Blue Jays and torn allegiances in Brian's house, then dive into Europe taking dead aim at your kids' screen time. Ireland is rolling out a Government Digital Wallet that'll verify ages before young'uns can doom-scroll their lives away, while Greece went fully scorched-earth and announced a ban on all under-15s using social media at all — announced, naturally, on TikTok.IN THE NEWS, the AI giants (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) are playing nicely together for once, teaming up through the Frontier Model Forum to stop Chinese firms from essentially photocopying their models on the cheap — billions in revenue, national security, and the small matter of safety guardrails stripped out. Turnabout is fair play? On the legal gambling front, prediction markets scored a federal win as a US appeals court ruled New Jersey can't regulate Kalshi; the Trump family's fingerprints are all over the prediction market space (surprise!), and the data suggests 0.04% of accounts are hoovering up 70% of profits like it's a perfectly healthy ecosystem. Also: the FBI pulled deleted Signal messages out of iPhone notification caches, GoPro is laying off 23% of its workforce while somehow remaining optimistic, and OpenAI is backing an Illinois bill that would shield AI companies from liability even in mass-casualty scenarios... cool. On the plus side, Artemis II astronauts took amazing photos of the Moon... on their iPhones.In APPS & DOODADS: Mercedes recalled its electric G-Wagons because the wheels might literally fall off, Amazon is sunsetting Kindles from 2012 and earlier for no reason anyone can figure out, and Apple Fitness on Apple TV is randomly scrambling workout stacks with no fix in sight — a premium locked ecosystem doing premium locked ecosystem things.In MEDIA CANDY, the crew is watching The Pitt, The Boys, Shrinking, and Daredevil, and you'll want to sit down for this: Mel Brooks and Rick Moranis are back — Spaceballs 2 hits theaters a full year from now even though it's done. Italy slapped Netflix with a court-ordered refund for price hikes going back to 2017, while Netflix simultaneously raised prices for US subscribers and launched Playground, a free kids gaming app that works offline (Peppa Pig and Sesame Street, no ads, no in-app purchases — hook 'em on Dah Dum young!)AT THE LIBRARY, Brian has given up on Breath and Jason reads Four Thousand Weeks and Art Spiegelman's Maus — the Pulitzer-winning Holocaust masterpiece that some people are still trying to ban, because humanity never fully learns.Closing out with THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, Treasury Secretary Bessent and Fed Chair Powell apparently called an emergency meeting with bank CEOs over Anthropic's new model "Mythos," which can apparently find and exploit vulnerabilities across major OSes and browsers. The boys also catch up on Maul: Shadow Lord, the Strong Songs podcast's Joni Mitchell deep-dive ("Passions soften into wisdom" — weeping on the plane, apparently), the belated discovery that Marathon launched and nobody noticed, and some genuine moon joy courtesy of NASA's Artemis II astronauts.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

#705: Jon McNeill, former president of Tesla and COO of Lyft, starts with a simple problem: his teenage son is about to start driving, and he's worried about texting behind the wheel. Instead of setting rules, he builds a solution. That idea becomes TruMotion, a company that uses smartphone sensors to track driving behavior. You hear how the app figures out whether someone is actually in the driver's seat, and how that technology ends up powering programs used by major insurance companies. From there, we zoom out. McNeill walks us through the systems he uses to build and scale companies. He explains how to question assumptions, including a case where his team reduces a 12-page car loan document down to a few sentences after realizing none of it is legally required. We also talk about speed. At Tesla, he learns to make decisions quickly, even without perfect information. He describes how faster decision-making compounds advantage over time. You hear a story from his early days working with Tesla, when he visits multiple stores, signs up for test drives, and never gets a follow-up. That leads him to identify thousands of missed sales opportunities sitting in the pipeline. The fix comes from focusing on the bottleneck, not adding more leads. McNeill also shares how he approaches negotiations at scale, including working with government officials in China and learning how incentives and systems shape outcomes. Throughout the conversation, he returns to a few core ideas: simplify the problem, identify the constraint, and move quickly once you have enough information to act. McNeill's new book is The Algorithm: The Hypergrowth Formula That Transformed Tesla, Lululemon, General Motors, and SpaceX.

Bientôt le retour sur Terre pour l'équipage d'Artémis 2, après leur mission autour de la Lune. Les quatre astronautes - Etatsuniens et Canadien - doivent amerrir ce vendredi 10 avril au soir, au large de la Californie après un vol historique et des photos inédites. Une mission suivie de près par Tidiane Ouattara, président du conseil de l'Agence spatiale africaine, organe de l'UA. Le continent ambitionne de monter en puissance dans les programmes spatiaux. Pas pour marcher sur la Lune, mais pour des applications très concrètes de communication, de sécurité ou de prévisions météo. Depuis Le Caire où siège l'agence, Tidiane Ouattara est l'invité de RFI. RFI : Docteur Tidiane Ouattara, vous avez suivi la mission Artemis 2, qu'est-ce qui vous a marqué ? Docteur Tidiane Ouattara : Sincèrement, je suis très ému. C'est un signe d'espoir. Artemis 2 annonce un signal clair : on veut résider sur la Lune et il y a beaucoup de développements techniques et scientifiques qui en découleraient. Donc, pour nous qui sommes passionnés de l'espace, nous sommes en joie. Mais au-delà de cela, nous sommes heureux de voir que de nouvelles découvertes scientifiques et technologiques nous permettraient, nous Africains, de sauter des pas ou de faire des pas de géant dans le développement socio-économique en termes d'infrastructures numériques. Aujourd'hui, une vingtaine de pays africains disposent de programmes spatiaux. Il y a les pionniers, l'Égypte, l'Afrique du Sud, le Nigéria, le Maroc ou l'Algérie. C'est un secteur qui progresse sur le continent ? Oui, tout à fait. Vous avez cité des pionniers. Il y a aussi les nouveaux pays qui sont le Rwanda, l'Éthiopie, le Gabon, le Sénégal, j'en passe. Il y a des nouveaux joueurs, mais la quasi-totalité des pays africains sont de gros consommateurs des produits spatiaux. Donc notre rôle au niveau politique sera de coordonner les programmes spatiaux de telle sorte que ceux qui n'ont pas de programme puissent en bénéficier. L'Afrique est le prochain eldorado des affaires spatiales. Quelles sont les applications concrètes de ces programmes spatiaux pour le quotidien ? Parfois, quand on est en face des autorités, on nous pose la question : « Nous avons des problèmes d'eau, et vous me parlez d'espace. » Je peux vous dire que l'espace permet de résoudre deux ou trois problématiques en ce qui concerne l'eau. Par exemple, lorsque nous sommes en train de chercher les meilleurs endroits pour creuser des puits, pour quelque chose qui doit prendre cinq ans, avec l'espace on identifie en six mois, un an, les zones potentielles. Deuxièmement, l'espace nous permet de regarder et d'analyser la qualité de l'eau. Troisièmement, l'espace nous permet la gestion de l'eau pour l'irrigation. En termes de sécurité et défense, grâce à l'espace, nous pouvons voir le mouvement des engins, des personnes et des événements. Et quand je parle d'événements, je parle d'inondations, je parle de l'évolution des volcans, et cetera. Donc, l'espace nous permet en un clin d'œil d'avoir de l'information, parce que c'est ce qui est important pour le décideur. Mais le spatial, ce sont aussi de gros investissements de long terme. Pour certains gouvernements, face à des besoins sociaux qui sont immédiats, est-ce que ce n'est pas un luxe ? Ah non, l'espace n'est plus un luxe. La première raison, c'est que l'espace qui coûtait des centaines de millions de dollars et qui était mené par des gouvernements des pays les plus riches et qui prenait 5 à 10 ans, ce budget est carrément réduit. Vous avez toutes sortes de satellites aujourd'hui, vous avez des CubeSats, vous avez des nanosatellites. Il est important aujourd'hui de dire que ce sont des investissements qui valent la peine. Il y a deux ou trois ans, en Afrique de l'Ouest, par exemple, il y avait des câbles sous-marins qui étaient sectionnés pendant plusieurs jours. Certains pays ont été complètement à l'arrêt. Si nous avions à ce moment un satellite, le satellite viendrait en complémentarité pour réduire ces impacts ou ces pertes. Personne ne peut aborder l'espace seul. Donc, la coopération internationale, la collaboration intra-africaine, voici des éléments à regarder pour pouvoir mutualiser les ressources, que ce soient les ressources financières, que ce soient les ressources humaines. Combien de satellites africains sont aujourd'hui en orbite ? Pour ce que nous savons, nous, parce qu'il y a aussi des satellites militaires, nous parlons d'une soixantaine parmi des milliers et des milliers de satellites dans l'espace. Ce n'est rien. Mais cependant, au fur et à mesure que les années passent, les Africains commencent à se préparer à lancer plus de satellites. La Chine finance des satellites pour plusieurs pays africains. La Russie avait lancé Angosat 2 pour l'Angola, on a vu des accords avec SpaceX de l'Américain Elon Musk, est-ce que l'espace africain est aussi l'espace d'influence géopolitique ? Absolument. L'Angola a aussi signé un contrat avec Airbus, hein ! Oui, comme dans tous les domaines. On ne peut pas échapper à la géopolitique. Cependant, ce qui est important pour nous, c'est, qu'est-ce que l'Afrique tire comme profit ? Que ce soit la Chine, que ce soit la Russie, que ce soit l'Europe, que ce soient les États-Unis, l'Afrique est ouverte à tout le monde. Maintenant, il ne faut pas s'attendre à ce que l'Afrique suive un pays par idéologie. Nous attendons que les partenaires nous proposent des choses et que nous aussi, nous puissions faire des contre-propositions dans un système gagnant-gagnant. Aujourd'hui, les satellites africains sont lancés depuis l'étranger. Est-ce qu'on peut imaginer, à terme, que le continent abrite une infrastructure de lancement de satellites ? Ah oui, voyez-vous, géographiquement nous sommes nantis. La zone équatoriale aujourd'hui est une zone propice pour le suivi de beaucoup de satellites. Nous avons des zones désertiques ou des zones marines qui peuvent facilement permettre le lancement. C'est un de nos rêves.  ► Entretien à retrouver en intégralité sur rfi.fr À lire aussiArtémis II: les astronautes ont battu le record de distance dans l'espace et survolé la face cachée de la Lune

De verkoop van de voedingstak van Unilever is nog geen week geleden aangekondigd, of Unilever gaat alweer op overnamepad. Het koopt voedingssupplementenmaker Grüns. Een bedrijf van 3 jaar oud, waar ze een half miljard euro voor betalen. Een bedrijf dat groot is in de gummy bears. Deze aflevering hebben we het over die bijzondere aankoop. Want supplementen, is dat de toekomst van Unilever? Past dat bij de strategie van het nieuwe Unilever? En wordt de voormalige voedingsreus nu niet stiekem net zo boring als DSM Firmenich? Saai is het in ieder geval niet bij TSMC. De chipmaker heeft een recordomzet geboekt in het vorige kwartaal. Het doet het ook veel beter dan analisten hadden gedacht. Een jubelbericht met mogelijke (positieve) gevolgen voor ASML. TSMC is namelijk een grote klant van de Nederlandse chipmachinemaker. Nu we het toch over Brabant hebben: in de provincie willen ze de bakermat van de Nederlandse AI-bedrijven worden. Ook hoor je over Kevin Warsh. Hij zou halverwege mei Jerome Powell opvolgen, maar dat lijkt nu onzeker. De hoorzitting van de beoogde Fed-baas gaat volgende week niet door. Te gast: Martine Hafkamp van Fintessa Vermogensbeheer BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie. Van Musk tot Microsoft en van Ahold tot ASML.

2026 年 1 月，马斯克向 FCC 提交申请，要发射 100 万颗数据中心卫星。3 月，他又宣布 Terafab，一座由特斯拉和 SpaceX 联手建设的芯片工厂，目标是每年生产相当于全球现有所有晶圆厂产能总和 20 倍的 AI 算力，其中 80% 专门为太空设计。与此同时，Google CEO 桑达尔·皮柴说他毫不怀疑"十年后太空会成为建数据中心的常规方式"。 这场竞赛里也有中国的身影。2025 年 11 月，北京市科委发布太空数据中心"三步走"规划，计划在 700-800 公里晨昏轨道建设超 GW 级算力系统，第一代试验星"辰光一号"已完成研制，2026 年初准备发射。 为什么要去太空搞数据中心？很简单，地球上的电力、水资源还有土地审批速度都已经无法满足 AI 发展的需求。那太空呢？永远的晴天、天然散热、物理隔离——听起来完美。但也有 Sam Altman 在另一边说，现在把数据中心放太空「太荒谬」。马斯克说两三年，Altman 说十年都不行，我们这期节目就来拆解，太空数据中心究竟行不行。 本期人物 丁教 Diane，「声动活泼」联合创始人、「科技早知道」主播 Yaxian，「科技早知道」主播 主要话题 [04:07] 地球上的数据中心，已经建不下去了 到2030年，电力消耗将翻倍，新买的设备没电用 数据中心获批难上加难 全球数据中心用水量已达 5600 亿升，几年内将翻倍到 1.2 万亿升 [08:39] 太空的物理优势：永远晴天，散热免费 晨昏轨道可实现近乎 100% 太阳照射，能量效率是地面太阳能的 40 倍 深空散热靠辐射而非空气，理论上可以省掉地面数据中心 40% 的散热能耗 [11:31] Sam Altman 为什么说这事"ridiculous" 散热虽不用水，但万卡集群需要的散热面积相当于一个小镇 太空中的硬件坏了无法维修，变成一次性 发射成本太高，难以商业化运营 [16:01] 算一道成本账：差距有多大 建同等规模的 1 吉瓦数据中心，太空方案目前是地面的三倍成本 发射成本降到 200 美元/公斤才是盈亏临界点；现在猎鹰重型的价格是 1500 美元/公斤，差了 8 倍 [18:30] 这不只是商业竞争，是轨道上的地缘算力角逐 晨昏轨道是稀缺资源，先发卫星就是先占位置、先定标准——类似当年的 5G 之争 Kessler 综合征：轨道碎片已经很严重，百万颗卫星计划如果推进，卫星间的碰撞风险将是全人类的问题 预测：2035 年在轨数据中心市场规模将达 390 亿美元，复合增长率 67.4% [21:37] 赛场上都有谁：从初创到大厂 Starcloud： 初创明星，YC 史上最快独角兽 Google 的 Suncatcher 项目：打造卫星集群，研究卫星间高带宽通信、轨道动力学和辐射对计算的影响， Axiom Space 则更像外包模式，已在 ISS 上完成首次轨道 AI 推理 [28:50] 全村的希望：星舰现在什么状态 太空数据中心的所有成本预测都依赖星舰——但星舰至今没有发射过任何有效载荷，也没有完整回收过一次 这是一盘多米诺骨牌，第一块还没倒 [31:27] 太空数据中心能做什么，不能做什么 不适合：实时 AI 对话（40-60 毫秒延迟太高）、高频交易、需要实时更新的工作负载 适合：模型预训练、卫星图像的在轨处理与压缩、气象数据分析、国防加密通信 [33:39] 就算短期不靠谱，为什么还值得做 Starcloud-2 的卫星和数据传输路线 Space X 设计的太空数据中心 AI Sat Mini 跟星舰 V3 的尺寸比较 提到的公司和名词 Starcloud 2024 年 1 月在美国加州成立，原名 Lumen Orbit。2025 年秋天，Starcloud 发射了第一颗卫星 Starcloud-1，上面搭载了一块 Nvidia H100 GPU。这颗卫星成功在太空中运行了 Google Gemma AI 的一个版本，成为历史上第一个在轨道上跑大语言模型的商业系统。在 2026 年 3 月以 17 个月的速度成为 YC 史上最快独角兽，估值 11 亿美元。 Axiom Space 2016 年成立于休斯顿，创始人之一 Michael Suffredini 在此之前是 NASA 国际空间站项目经理，干了整整十年（2005-2015）。公司的核心业务是建造商业空间站，太空数据中心是它的延伸业务，思路是利用空间站的基础设施做在轨计算节点。 Project Suncatcher（Google） 2025 年 11 月 Google 正式宣布的研究项目。计划是用搭载 Google 自研 TPU 芯片的卫星星座，通过星间光学链路互联，在太空中跑 AI 工作负载。合作方是卫星遥感公司 Planet Labs，计划 2027 年初发射两颗原型卫星做在轨测试。 LEO（Low Earth Orbit） 近地轨道，通常指距地面 200-2000 公里的轨道。太空数据中心的主流方案都选在 LEO，因为通信延迟更低、发射成本相对较低。 Bit Flip（单粒子翻转） 宇宙辐射中的高能粒子打到芯片上，可能导致存储单元里的 0 变成 1，或者 1 变成 0，让计算出错。这是所有上天芯片必须应对的核心挑战，播客里称为"单粒子反转"，两种说法都对。 Kessler 综合征 1978 年由 NASA 科学家 Donald Kessler 提出的理论：如果近地轨道的卫星和碎片密度达到临界值，碰撞产生的新碎片会触发连锁反应，导致某些轨道永久不可用。随着各家公司争相往太空发卫星，这个风险正变得越来越现实。 Knock Knock 世界 最近「Knock Knock 世界」更新了「折纸与太空」的话题：麻省理工学院的一个团队从「剪纸」中获得灵感，发明了一种在火星上建造房子的新方法。「折纸」和太空基地建造有什么联系、这背后的科学原理是什么？欢迎点击这里收听

Dan Nathan and Gene Munster of Deepwater Asset Management discuss tech stocks heading into Q1 earnings, focusing on why Google and Broadcom outperformed on news of an Anthropic compute deal using Google TPUs and Broadcom, which they view as validating accelerating AI demand. They explore investor anxiety around AI hardware multiples and hyperscaler CapEx, noting street expectations for calendar 2027 spending growth and how that affects Nvidia and Broadcom sentiment, while arguing AI remains early despite massive costs. Munster outlines Deepwater's view that premium “high-end” tokens may not commoditize as quickly as costs fall, citing their machine-driven Intelligent Alpha (GPT) ETF. They explain why they don't own Microsoft, pointing to seat-growth concerns and disappointment with Copilot, and discuss Apple's need for an AI narrative shift, including privacy-focused personalized AI. Munster previews his SpaceX views, saying it doesn't need to go public but IPOs can broaden access and lower capital costs, and they consider whether a SpaceX listing impacts Tesla positioning.

The decline of enjoyment in today's air travel experience, special TSA treatment for Congress members, consolidating ATC functions, TRACON evacuations, Artemis II, Part 141 training organizations, and aerial refueling. Also, Av-Con 2026, Spacewoman documentary, “souls onboard,” and EAS. Aviation News ‘The alarm bells are going off': Air travel hits new lows Recent events have made commercial air travel a difficult proposition for many air travelers. We see increasing fuel costs and increasing ticket prices, long lines at some security checkpoints, TSA workers absent, recent accidents, air traffic controller shortages, equipment malfunctions, and more. The U.S. Travel Association's senior vice president of government relations, Erik Hansen, said of passengers, “What they're seeing is chaos, and what they're seeing is a system that doesn't work.” Delta suspends special congressional services amid shutdown In a statement to The Hill, Delta said, “Due to the impact on resources from the longstanding government shutdown, Delta will temporarily suspend specialty services to members of Congress flying Delta. Next to safety, Delta's no. 1 priority is taking care of our people and customers, which has become increasingly difficult in the current environment.” Those services have included airport escorts and red coat services. Senate passes measure prohibiting preferential airport screening for lawmakers Just days before the Delta action, the U.S. Senate unanimously approved a proposal to end the special treatment members of Congress get at airports. That included permitting members of Congress to speed through or skip security screening checkpoints. To become law, the House would have to pass the bill, and the President would have to sign it. LaGuardia controller staffing may have violated procedures on night of collision, document shows On March 22, 2026, an Air Canada jet landing at LaGuardia struck a fire truck, killing both pilots. LaGuardia tower’s standard operating procedures specify that a controller cannot perform both air and ground duties. The NTSB is investigating the roles of the controllers at the time of the crash. A 2023 rule in the LaGuardia ​Tower Standard Operating Procedures states, “Positions at LaGuardia Tower are not to be consolidated to one position prior to midnight local time or 90 minutes after the start of the shift, whichever is later.” Those familiar with the matter said the rule remained in effect in 2026. D.C.-area ATC evacuations followed 2025 smoke event which injured controllers On March 13, 2026, FAA operations were disrupted after Potomac Terminal Radar Approach Control (TRACON) reported a strong smell. Fire responders investigated, and the source was identified as an overheated circuit board. That incident caused a ground stop lasting a little over two hours, affecting DCA, IAD, BWI, and nearby airports. On March 27, 2026, the TRACON was evacuated again after another strong chemical smell, reportedly originating from an overheated battery backup or other electrical component in the break room/IT area. That second evacuation also triggered ground stops and significant delays across the region. A similar event occurred in April 2025, when smoke entered the Potomac TRACON control room. That incident did not lead to an evacuation, but did leave multiple controllers with health issues severe enough to affect their medical certificates. Artemis II Headed for the Moon The Artemis II Mission flew four astronauts around the moon before returning them to Earth. The planned 10-day test flight is the first time since Apollo 17 in 1972 that humans have departed Earth orbit. NASA's SLS (Space Launch System) rocket and Orion spacecraft lifted off from Launch Pad 39B at the agency's Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 6:35 p.m. EDT on April 1, 2026. The Artemis III mission will launch a crew in the Orion spacecraft atop the SLS rocket to test rendezvous and docking capabilities between Orion and commercial spacecraft (SpaceX and Blue Origin) needed to land astronauts on the Moon. NASA will announce specifics on the Artemis III mission design and crew closer to the 2027 launch. Artemis IV astronauts will travel to lunar orbit, where two crew members will descend to the surface and spend approximately a week near the Moon’s South Pole conducting new science before returning to lunar orbit to rejoin their crew for the journey back to Earth. Report Calls for Major Flight Training Changes The FAA has released a 471-page report by the National Flight Training Alliance (NFTA) titled A Comprehensive Modernization of Pilot Training Conducted by 14 CFR Part 141 Training Organizations, which states: “The goal of this modernization effort is unambiguous: to develop a robust certification and regulatory framework under 14 CFR Part 141 that stands alone as the preeminent accreditation and method by which aviators are trained throughout the world. Under this new framework, achieving FAA certification would represent the highest standard of training excellence available anywhere negating the need for further accreditation or external oversight. The American flight training system would, in this vision, stand alone already.“ The key recommendations include: Establishing a dedicated Central Management Office responsible for all Part 141 pilot school initial certification and ongoing certificate management. Establishing both Safety Management Systems and Quality Management Systems within the Part 141 training environment. Reforming how the FAA manages and oversees certificated pilot schools. Developing industry consensus standards as an alternate means of compliance with Part 141 regulations. Reforming the Part 141 examining authority framework. Expanding Flight Simulation Training Device (FSTD) and Technology Credit and Usage. Modernizing training course appendices. Replacing Provisional Pilot School with Registered Pilot School. A-10 Warthog Being Tested With Aerial Refueling Probe Bolted Onto Its Nose A test A-10 has been flown for the first time with a refueling probe replacing its normal aerial refueling receptacle.

In this episode, Scott Becker discusses market momentum, tech stock swings including Tesla and NVIDIA, SpaceX's anticipated IPO, and more.

The IPO floodgates are opening — and AI is driving the wave. Dan Nathan sits down with CNBC anchor and tech columnist Deirdre Bosa to break down the biggest stories in tech right now: SpaceX's confidential IPO filing, the Anthropic vs. OpenAI battle for investor dollars, Apple's strange standoff with the vibe coding generation, and why the AI trade has been a dud in public markets even as private valuations soar. Then, Dan talks with Michael Manapat, Co-Founder and CEO of Rowspace — the AI-native financial data platform that just raised $50M in a Sequoia-led round. Michael breaks down why private equity and private credit firms can't afford to sit on the sidelines anymore, how Rowspace is deploying agents across every layer of their business, and what it really means to be "AI-native" in 2026. Two conversations. One throughline: the money is moving, the window is open, and the firms that don't adapt are already behind. —FOLLOW USYouTube: @RiskReversalMediaInstagram: @riskreversalmediaTwitter: @RiskReversalLinkedIn: RiskReversal Media
