Steve Jobs perfect response to an insult (1997)

@FELibrary_ This device ionizes the air in the chamber to produce thrust, but actual spacecraft with ion thruster’s carry their own propel (usually xenon gas) which is ionized, then electromagnetically accelerated out the back of the rocket nozzle.

🚨 JUST IN: Trump NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman announces a SURGE in America's moon landing plans - Artemis III is moved UP to 2027 - TWO crewed lunar landings in 2028 - We'll now be launching from every 3 years to every 10 MONTHS LFG! Just as promised, we're going BACK to the moon and Artemis missions are full-steam ahead 🔥 “Launching a lunar rocket every 3 years is NOT a strategy consistent with success [...] This is the NASA that once changed the world. This is the NASA that will do it again." — @NASAAdmin

Below is the note that I sent to the NASA workforce today as we release the report on the Starliner Crew Flight Test Investigation. We will achieve success through extreme ownership, immense competence, and decisive action.

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump's NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman just slashed $1 BILLION in annual spending after being on the job for not even 2 months Wow! He did it without any layoffs or reducing NASA's capabilities. DOGE at NASA! 🇺🇸🔥

Jensen Huang on the smartest person he's ever met;

Forget the $200,000 degree. In 2011, Jensen Huang gave a lecture at Stanford that explains strategy better than any professor. NVIDIA is now worth $5 Trillion. Save this post. You won't find this video again once your feed refreshes:

@BGatesIsaPyscho Just after launch, they orient themselves to minimize drag as they continue to raise their orbit and separate from each other. This allows reflectivity from certain angles to the sun. Once they are all in their final orbit, they rotate such that no sunlight gets reflected.

Starlink passing over the Moon. Serious question - if this thing is in constant orbit, then why don’t people see it every hour of every day in the night sky?

How can anyone dispute this ?

@RedpillDrifter High winds and smoke from wild fires in OK and TX (and other areas) is causing air quality issues across the Midwest. Weather radar is picking up these particles directly mirroring the path of the smoke. #3.26/38.76/-91.2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">fire.airnow.gov/#3.26/38.76/-9…

The HAARP death grid system has been ramping up blasting pulses across the US. This is from today March 14, 2025. GWEN towers located across the grid shoot massive bursts of energy into the atmosphere in conjunction with HAARP. Newsflash.. HAARP facilities are located across the Earth not just in Alaska. Been feeling off lately? Now you know why...

@j00ny369T Clean the watch, and your wrist underneath more often. I had the same issue because I almost never took it off. Bacteria was built up on the back of the watch.

Do you have the red mark?

This speech will change your life…

I could spend hours looking at this.

@ProtossOb @StockSavvyShay They have secured agreements with Blue Origin to utilize their New Glenn rocket for satellite deployments planned in 2025 and 2026, as well as other launch providers, including (ISRO), to support the deployment of up to 60 Block 2 BlueBird satellites during this period.

@StockSavvyShay Who will launch their satelites and at what costs?

$ASTS & Vodafone to launch satellite-to-mobile broadband in Europe -- bringing direct-to-phone 4G/5G connectivity to remote areas by 2025 👀

Video chats fueled from space, anyone? Several months after launching into orbit, AST SpaceMobile's first BlueBird satellites have successfully powered a video call between two unmodified smartphones on the ground. pcmag.com/news/ast-space…

$ASTS Has had quite the battle since its inception - almost everyone doubted its success except for #spacemob 2021: “It’s just a SPAC merger. Scam. Someone will beat them to it.” 2022: “The technology won’t work, it’s impossible to do broadband from space.” 2023: “They’re burning capital like no tomorrow. They won’t have enough funding to do this.” 2024: “SpaceX will simply be too far ahead. There’s no market for this. They don’t even have launch agreements.” 2025: “Oh shit…”

$ASTS: Vodafone's new landing page for direct-to-device 🔥🔥 "As Margherita’s video call shows, the advantage of Vodafone working with AST SpaceMobile’s satellites is that more bandwidth is available so that other apps and services can be used. At the time of writing, other direct-to-phone satellite services only have enough bandwidth for voice calls and text messages." "The AST SpaceMobile satellite that Vodafone used can provide faster mobile data speeds than other LEO-using services as it uses a technique called beamforming. Already used in WiFi, as well as wholly terrestrial 4G and 5G networks, this technique precisely directs radio signals from satellites to their intended destination. This not only helps increase speed, but also minimises interference, increasing reliability." vodafone.co.uk/newscentre/sma…
