What's fun is there's going to be a similar phase where asteroid mined platinum has the same low volume high price novelty.
I'd actually be surprised if @AstroForge hasn't already lined up a deal with a jewelry company to pay well over market price for the first space mined Pt.

The time period that aluminum could be refined and it becoming cheaply mass producible had like a decade in between

En 2025, la France a installé en tout 4470 robots industriels, soit 80x moins que la Chine. Ce que l'on installe en un an, c'est que les chinois font en 5 jours.

THE COUNTDOWN: Godspeed Starship Flight 14 - (unofficial) infographic. See my step-by-step infographic for all the in-flight details you need. Go Orbital! nitter.cf/InfographicTony/status…
UPDATE 2.0: SpaceX (unofficial) Starship Flight 14 infographic (free members' version). Look for updates and possible corrections leading up to launch day. The main changes in this update are adding a strip of tiles on the leeward side of the rear flaps and fixing a couple of grammatical inconsistencies.

Sensibility wins out.
The old Constellation conops is back (mostly).
Starship is Ares V, EDS, and Altair put together. And juiced to the gills.
SLS is Ares I. And yes, it could have always been a generic heavy lifter like Delta IV Heavy or Falcon Heavy or New Glenn or VC6 or Terran R. Still can.
Also, let me just put this here: ozanbellik.blogspot.com/2022…
But really it's just going to be Starship for the whole thing soon enough (not for Artemis 4, probably, but soon enough.)
Replying to @jeff_foust
SpaceX's Jessica Jensen confirms that the revised Starship HLS plan for Artemis 4 involves a Starship-Orion docking in low Earth orbit, with Starship doing the TLI burn to go to low lunar orbit.

First ATR 72-600 Delivered to Hydro-Québec
Hydro-Québec reached a major modernizing milestone for its corporate shuttle fleet as the state utility officially took delivery of its first brand-new ATR 72-600 (MSN 1825, registered C-GHYQ).
The aircraft completed its delivery ferry flight from ATR’s Toulouse manufacturing center (TLS) to Montréal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL) via Keflavík (KEF) and Goose Bay (YYR).
Key Aircraft & Fleet Details
Fleet Modernization:
The aircraft is the first of three firm ATR 72-600 orders placed in April 2025, which includes options for additional aircraft.
Fleet Replacement:
The incoming ATR 72-600s will replace Hydro-Québec’s aging fleet of older-generation turboprops, including Dash 8-300 and Dash 8-400 aircraft.
Efficiency Improvements:
Powered by Pratt & Whitney Canada PW127XT engines, the aircraft cuts fuel burn and reduces CO₂ emissions by up to 30% compared to competing regional turboprops and 45% compared to regional jets.
Mission Profile:
The fleet serves as a critical operational lifeline across Québec, shuttling staff and specialists between major centers and 62 isolated hydroelectric generating stations statewide.
Growing Canadian Footprint:
The delivery strengthens ATR's expanding presence in the Canadian market, joining over 50 ATR aircraft operating across the region.
This milestone delivery enables Hydro-Québec to lower its transport emissions while maintaining reliable regional logistics support across remote energy infrastructure.

$IONQ IonQ presents Superion at a Dubai keynote this Wednesday.
Amro Imam gives the talk on the Prime Stage of the Quantum Innovation Summit, 30 September.
IonQ launched Superion 256, its new quantum computer, on 8 September. Between 21 and 24 September, it announced 3 installations:
→ An SDT customer in South Korea
→ NVIDIA's Accelerated Quantum Research Center
→ Florida International University, in Miami
Imam's LinkedIn teaser for the Superion line: on Wednesday, "you find out why it is revolutionary."

Starbase GigaBay Month Eleven
This month saw the GigaBay roof work progress as large parts of the covering can visually be seen, along with progress on the external cladding as the external work gets ever closer to the end, as we near the project celebrating a year.
Over the coming months as the external work comes to an end, you can follow the progress on @NASASpaceflight 's Starbase Live nsf.live/starbase

Les #Rafale des deux pays ont mené des missions conjointes dans un contexte de partage d'expérience. Les pilotes indonésiens, formés en France, ont parfois retrouvé certains PN 🇫🇷 croisés sur les bancs de l'école de l'ETR. Cela facilite grandement les échanges !

Thanks for a fun chat, @vicky_woodburn, @GoesslerAlyssa, and Taylor Jordan!
A few shots from @payloadspace's Off World in Houston, where Industrious Ventures Partner @TaylorCSargent joined Taylor Jordan of the Office of Space Commerce and Alyssa Goessler Goodwin of AE Industrial Partners for a conversation on investing in the space economy, where capital is flowing, and what it takes to build enduring companies in the sector.
Thanks to Victoria Woodburn and the Payload team for bringing together a great group!

Le fameux “agent OpenAI qui a piraté Medicare en Australie” n’a peut-être rien piraté du tout.
Des chercheurs ont retrouvé dans le code archivé du portail un endpoint explicitement non authentifié vers lequel le site lui-même dirigeait les visiteurs. Les logs de l’agent n’ont toujours pas été publiés.
Donc il est possible qu’on ait transformé une mauvaise configuration web en incident cyber historique.

People who are surprised by this figure should recall that BO has had over 10,000 employees for several years now... and lots of infrastructure. And before that they had thousands of employees for many years.
And very little in the way of revenue.
I'd guess they're spending somewhere around $5B/yr of Jeff's money right now, maybe more. (That'd be ~$400k/yr/employee for comp, benefits, taxes & fees, infrastructure, parts & materials, tools, etc.)
Exclusive: Jeff Bezos has invested $30 billion in Blue Origin since its founding in 2000, an extraordinary commitment from the Amazon.com founder in a company that aims to rival SpaceX. on.wsj.com/3T7AL3z

$IONQ Mihir Bhaskar helped IonQ buy SkyWater before he ran it.
He told EE Times: "Since joining IonQ, I've helped lead technology strategy, including assisting with the acquisition of SkyWater." He now runs SkyWater Quantum Solutions, the unit that came out of that deal.
“IonQ is treated as a customer of the foundry, just like anyone else,” he said. Each customer's data stays with the SkyWater team that builds its chips.
