Moving on up! With Alpha Flight 8 in the integration and test phase, we're hitting stride on our Automated Fiber Placement machine and building four carbon composite barrels at once for multiple flights. These automated manufacturing processes allow us to enhance quality and reliability across the vehicle as part of our Alpha Block II upgrade.

@TheCaptainEli @EdLudlow There needs to be a movie about this. Most people are under the impression that the idea/prototype is the hard part when it is 1% of the problem. For example, the IDEA of going to the Moon is trivial, actually DOING IT is the hard part!

@danprimack Could be - Apple’s AI "lag" mirrors Nokia’s 2007: they’re optimizing a "Feature" while the world is moving toward a new "Platform". Wouldn’t bet against apple but worth pondering

Apple isn't burning mountains of cash on GPUs. Or investing billions into frontier labs. But it still may win the AI race. Success from the sidelines. $AAPL

Eclipse is getting a fresh look! Firefly and @northropgrumman are redefining what's possible in medium-lift launch, and this game-changing rocket deserves a livery that matches. Learn more about Eclipse here: fireflyspace.com/eclipse/

Big things happening at the Rocket Ranch! Standing 95 ft tall, our first stage tanks for our Eclipse rocket are on the stand for structural testing. This risk reduction test will push the tanks beyond their limits to verify our flight margins. More to come soon!
