🚨 Your coding agent may be secretly sticking vulnerabilities into your code!! 🚨 Wouldn't you want to fix that? Hint: asking it to write secure code is not enough. (1/n)
US State Dept confirms the Russian antisatellite missile test. I condemned the 2007 Chinese test, the 2008 US test, the 2019 Indian test, and I equally condemn this one. Debris-generating antisatellite tests are a bad idea and should never be carried out.
“First Light” images from our newest #SAR satellite have been released! #Giza #Ijen #BocaChica The team is delighted with the 50cm resolution quality data. We look forward to providing even more imaging capacity from the Capella Constellation after final calibrations.
What happens to a #SAR satellite after launch? Our space operations team put together a simple explainer to walk you through every stage of the commissioning process from deployment to “First Light”. capellaspace.com/8-steps-for-co…
We officially have first contact! The newest #SAR satellite in the Capella Constellation is in good health and we will continue the commissioning process. Stay tuned over the following weeks for very high resolution first light images. Any requests?
We achieved another milestone last week! Learn how the team launched and fully commissioned its latest #SAR satellite in 5 days. Our blog will take you behind the scenes with spacecraft deployment footage and celebrations back on Earth. bit.ly/3hYAsTJ

In a @CNBC exclusive @thesheetztweetz goes behind the scenes at Capella to cover: ✅ Rare footage of our newest SAR satellites deploying their radar systems ✅ First light images from the Transporter-1 mission ✅ A new partnership with IQT Read in full 👉 cnb.cx/3bWGtg0
1/ We are incredibly proud to officially be the highest resolution commercial #SAR provider in the world! Today we are revealing our “Spot” imagery at 50cm x 50cm. 👉 bit.ly/3r3zAz1
Thank you @rocketlab for a smooth ride to space. Our team has taken over the operations and has made successful contact with Sequoia. We will take the next few weeks to go through commissioning and calibration.
How hard can it be to land A350 without a pilot? - We just did it thanks to Deep Learning!😎 @Airbus completes world's first fully automatic, VISION-BASED autonomous taxi, takeoff and landing with A350 test aircraft under ATTOL project, CTO @graziavittadini says #AiaaAviation
Please join us in congratulating our dear friend and advisor Prof. Mykel Kochenderfer on officially getting tenure in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics! #tenure #Professor
