The world is feeling dark and unstable right now, tempting us all into forms of "hunkering down" and these are the best words I could find to help turn new college graduates back towards the light, the positive, the hopeful, and the creative.

Four years ago, two far-out, sci-fi sounding ideas — internet balloons and delivery drones — graduated from X to become @Wing and Loon. From the X archives, @astroteller celebrates what these audacious projects can teach us about radical innovation. youtube.com/watch?v=zKUyk0…

Loved this blog from longtime Xer @EugenieRives on how ideas evolve inside X's innovation ecosystem — and how killing her moonshot helped her become a better and more resilient leader. Here's to many more moonshot explorations to come!
X, The Moonshot Factory@Theteamatx
X is constantly exploring dozens of different ideas — but most never make it out of the Factory. Instead, the learnings, experiments and prototypes become "moonshot compost" in our innovation ecosystem, nurturing and inspiring the seeds of new moonshots. x.company/blog/posts/moo…

When “nothing will work but everything might”, all we have is our willingness to keep trying — and if enough of us are successful, we'll tip the scales in our favor. X's Sarah Hunter shares how we can use "applied optimism" to tackle the climate crisis x.company/blog/posts/opt…
