Over the last few years, we have been working hard @specteraero, quietly building the future of high speed flight. Today, we’re excited to reveal what we’ve been working on: with our advanced propulsion and vehicle technologies we are developing next generation hypersonic systems to connect and protect.

We applaud @DoWCTO’s call for Scalable Hypersonics as part of the @DeptofWar’s critical technology areas. This is exactly what we have been building at @specteraero and is crucial to delivering deference at scale.

@cwamidon This is definitely a worrying trend and when all of the programs of record that were promised in 12 months never materialize, we will shift to the downward slope of the hype cycle

confirmed today: the secret of raising for a defense startup is just lying about what your product can do sad to see!

I was glad to join the my colleagues on the @AtlanticCouncil’s Hypersonic Capabilities Task Force meeting in DC this week for a productive discussion on comprehensive strategy to reestablish American dominance in this critical technology area.

At Mach 1.7, Overture outflies Earth’s rotation. So you can have breakfast in London… and fly to New York… for breakfast. And then to San Francisco just in time for breakfast. In fact if you just keep flying west you can keep having breakfast indefinitely.

BREAKING: Apple just proved AI "reasoning" models like Claude, DeepSeek-R1, and o3-mini don't actually reason at all. They just memorize patterns really well. Here's what Apple discovered: (hint: we're not as close to AGI as the hype suggests)

Construyamos con el Espíritu Santo una Iglesia fundada en el amor de Dios y signo de unidad, una Iglesia misionera, que abre los brazos al mundo, que anuncia la Palabra, que se deja cuestionar por la historia, y que se convierte en fermento de concordia para la humanidad.

Mentioned color of money constraints with someone from California and they asked what it had to do with DEI. My brother… we’re talking OTAs, PoRs, and SBIRs - not safe spaces.

@mttgrmm I am continuously amazed it doesn’t work like this. I somewhat hope the databases are linked so that they don’t do a separate precheck investigation but I doubt it.

humble proposal -- if you fill out a 75 page SF-86 and the government investigates your background and interviews your friends and ultimately grants you a clearance allowing for access to classified information that should probably just come with TSA pre-check and global entry

Sent it! Good flight test thanks to the dedication of the @specteraero team. We proved out key high speed weapon subsystems on our low cost flight test vehicle.

Absolutely horrifying to see a midair which comes after many recent close calls. I fly out of DCA several times a month so this hits close to home. Prayers for all involved.
Flightradar24@flightradar24

The FAA confirms tonight’s collision near DCA involved #AA5342 and a US military H60. The helicopter was not broadcasting ADS-B data. The last received ADS-B position from the CRJ was at 01:48 UTC. AA5342 was en route from Wichita to Washington (DCA) and was on final approach for Runway 33 at an approximate altitude of 300 feet AMSL. #38ecc36f" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">flightradar24.com/data/flights/a…

@SpaceNews_Inc @SpaceNews_Inc - details matter. They didn’t win a $1.45b contract they won a 1 of 3 task areas on an IDIQ with a total, current, value of $1.45b over 5 years.

@hesspresso_ and deliver new technologies at scale, finding support from the DoD without needing to rely on some tangential commercial application to fulfill an investment thesis or pay the bills.

@hesspresso_ but many DoD requirements are exquisite and for justifiable reasons (mostly.) As an example, there is no commercial use case for munitions but they are critically important. A healthy defense industrial base is one where non-traditional companies can bring innovative solutions…

The two options: 1. Traditional space effort led by JPL, which will be successful but likely miss cost and schedule targets. 2. Betting on Starship to start landing safely on Mars within several years. NASA is already counting on Starship to land safely on the Moon ...
NASA@NASA

We're exploring two approaches to our Mars Sample Return Program to bring @NASAPersevere's rock cores back to Earth: one using proven sky crane technology, and the other using new commercial capabilities. We expect to finalize the design in 2026. go.nasa.gov/4fMZgIC
