Power changes what鈥檚 possible on the lunar surface.
Our Power Tower is a 20-meter-tall, vertically deployed solar array system designed to provide more than 10 kilowatts of power for Moon Base operations at the lunar South Pole. Its modular architecture will support future surface networks, extending power beyond the lander to the assets that need it most.
Explore the concept in our animation below, then watch a successful real-world deployment: piped.video/wcirOp_E2J0

We are not ready for the wait between Starship flights to drop from months to days.
The entire space industry is about to change.
This is super provisional!
Starship Flight 15 - NET October 19
Starship Flight 16 (Starlink 30-1) - KSC 39A - NET October 30.
You can bet those dates will slip, but it shows some of SpaceX's forward planning.

I'm quite tired of Pixar bean mouth and Spiderverse style animated movies at this point.
It's really refreshing to see a movie with a more realistic and traditional western animation style.
Welcome to the future. From the director of The Incredibles and Ratatouille comes RAY GUNN, starring Sam Rockwell, Scarlett Johansson, and Tom Waits.
In select theaters December 4 and on Netflix December 18.

Bioengineering is absolutely one of the best tools available to us for terraforming Mars.
Microbes, plants and animals are von Neumann probes which have already proven their ability to shape an entire planet on Earth, and it's not some future technology, we have been using them for millennia and we have learnt how to program them through selective breeding and gene editing.
Today, Pioneer Labs is announcing our first step towards terraforming Mars. 馃殌馃尲
With equipment that fits in just a single rocket launch, we can convert Martian dirt, water, and air into enough building materials to construct a small city on Mars.
To do it, we made the first microbe for Mars. We found the best microbe on Earth and used evolution to teach it how to source all of its nutrients directly from Martian materials.
The first astronauts will be greeted with safe shelter already filled with water, oxygen, and rocket fuel for the return journey.
This is the first step toward using biology to make Mars a friendly place for life. It lets us live off the land and helps us build the next great frontier.
It's the first of five organisms we need to green Mars 猬囷笍
