Titan makes flying almost unfair.
Its air is about four times denser than Earth's, and gravity is only about one-seventh. Put those together and lift gets roughly 40 times cheaper.
So NASA's sending a nuclear-powered octocopter, not a rover.

37,617 against the current. 🚀
Going the wrong way is where space gets violent. Leonid meteors orbit the Sun backward, so they hit our air nearly head-on at 71 km/s. Ones catching up from behind can arrive as slow as 11.
Same physics, opposite lane, six times the speed.

They don't unfold with motors. They unroll like a tape measure.
Each boom is a thin composite strip stored rolled flat. Let it go and it springs back straight, pulling the solar blanket out behind it.
Spring energy does the work, so fewer moving parts can fail.
Next Week’s Spacewalk: Unfurling the ISS’s Next Generation Solar Arrays
During next week’s spacewalk, astronauts will install new Roll-Out Solar Arrays (ROSAs) on the International Space Station. In the images you can already see two of them still tightly folded and ready for deployment, alongside views of how these flexible, high-efficiency arrays look once they have been rolled out and are fully operational in orbit.

She tied her two young children together in the basement. Then she threw her body on top of them.
A tornado was heading straight for their home.
When it hit, the house collapsed.
Two steel beams crushed Stephanie Decker’s legs. Seven ribs broke. Her legs were almost completely severed.
But underneath her were her two children.
Alive.
Then they realised something horrifying:
Another tornado was coming.
Stephanie couldn’t stand. Couldn’t run. Couldn’t free herself.
So she pulled the blanket over her children, wrapped her arms around them and covered them with her broken body.
Again.
The second tornado passed.
Neither child had even a scratch.
Stephanie survived, but lost both legs.
People called her a hero.
She simply said:
“I call myself a mom.”

Yesterday I testified in front of Congress and only TWO Democrat congressmen showed up to the hearing
Not ONE question was directed towards me from the democrats about the fraud. Weird… I wonder why lol
If Congressmen don’t show up to their hearings they aren’t representing their constituents, wtf are we paying them for?

Well it is official now..
I want to again express my sincere appreciation to President Donald J. Trump @POTUS for nominating me to lead NASA, and to the United States Senate--and Chairman Cruz @tedcruz - for their diligence and fairness throughout the confirmation process. I am grateful to Secretary Duffy @SecDuffy for his leadership as Acting Administrator during this transition, and to my wife Monica, my family, my friend Senator Sheehy @TimSheehyMT and everyone who offered their support along the way.
As I step into this role, I make these personal commitments:
– Mission: I will champion the bold objectives of human space exploration, scientific discovery, and a thriving orbital economy that ensures America’s leadership in space. We will never again give up our capabilities to reach for the stars, and we will never settle for second place.
– Integrity: I will serve responsibly, transparently, and without personal gain, covering every cost I am legally permitted to, and fully adhering to my ethics agreement. My loyalty is to my country, my President, and the space agency that has inspired me since I was a child.
– Urgency: I will intensely focus the agency on achieving the near-impossible, the very reason NASA was established in the first place. We will eliminate the bureaucracy that impedes progress and empower the best and brightest to take ownership, move quickly, accept smart risks, and act with a relentless focus on mission success.
– Inspiration: Every launch, every scientific breakthrough must inspire the next generation to dream bigger, to reach higher, and believe that anything is possible. In addition to my existing philanthropic efforts, I will donate my salary as Administrator to the U.S. Space & Rocket Center’s Space Camp to help prepare the pioneers of tomorrow.
I am humbled by this opportunity, proud to serve, and ready to work alongside the most talented minds in America as we continue the greatest adventure in human history.
Sincerely,
Jared Isaacman
NASA Administrator

Today, Jared Isaacman (@NASAAdmin) was sworn in as NASA’s 15th Administrator. At a time of intense competition across the last frontier, he will lead the most talented minds in the nation to ignite the orbital economy, usher in world-changing scientific discovery, and return American astronauts to the Moon – this time, to stay.

Let’s change the law.
Between now and then, name and shame the DAs and judges who enable murder, rape and robbery.
But especially shame those who funded the campaigns of the DAs and judges. That will make the biggest difference.

🚨 There’s a large-scale supply chain attack in progress: the NPM account of a reputable developer has been compromised. The affected packages have already been downloaded over 1 billion times, meaning the entire JavaScript ecosystem may be at risk.
The malicious payload works by silently swapping crypto addresses on the fly to steal funds.
If you use a hardware wallet, pay attention to every transaction before signing and you're safe.
If you don’t use a hardware wallet, refrain from making any on-chain transactions for now.
It’s still unclear whether the attacker is also stealing seeds from software wallets directly at this stage.
Excellent report here: jdstaerk.substack.com/p/we-j…

When I see all these senators trying to lecture and "gotcha" Bobby Kennedy today all I can think is:
You all support off-label, untested, and irreversible hormonal "therapies" for children, mutilating our kids and enriching big pharma. You're full of shit and everyone knows it.

If your 'crypto' needs a lot of bells and whistles like token burns, airdrops, paid KOLs, marketing and backdoor deals/donations catered by VC's and founders to get people to invest in it then I'm not for you.
I'm here to break the mold.
I'm here for you.

GPS—there were 318 mobile devices present, including law enforcement and media. 92% have been present at 5 or more past DC protests.
67 appear to likely be federal government employees, with their mobile devices accessing both keycard required garages and federal buildings, including the Department of Defense, Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice, FBI and Department of the Treasury.
Additionally, 9 of these mobile devices accessed the White House via the Northwest Gate located on Pennsylvania Avenue NW, across from Lafayette Square, 3 or more times in the past 30 days.
Most are local residents of the DMV—with 86.7% of devices spending evenings in a home worth $850,000+ and 34% in homes worth over $2.5 million.
Funding?
On August 16, 2025, protests took place in Washington, D.C., primarily organized under the banner of "Free DC" and "Fight the Trump Takeover," opposing President Trump's federal takeover of local policing and the deployment of National Guard troops from Republican-led states like West Virginia, South Carolina, and Ohio. Demonstrators gathered at Dupont Circle before marching approximately 1.5 miles to the White House, chanting slogans such as "Trump Must Go" and "Hands Off DC," and waving signs protesting what they described as a military-style occupation and government overreach. These events were part of broader nationwide demonstrations against Trump's policies, though the D.C. focus was on local autonomy and crime crackdown measures.
The protests were organized and supported by progressive nonprofits, notably Community Change and its affiliate Community Change Action, which oversee the "Free DC" initiative as a fiscally sponsored project.
These groups have received over $20 million in funding from left-wing dark-money donors and foundations, including:
- George Soros' Open Society Foundations.
- The Arabella Advisors network (a major hub for progressive dark-money distribution).
- The Tides Foundation.
This funding has been directed toward advocacy efforts, including the recent D.C. home rule campaigns and anti-Trump protests, according to investigative reports from sources like the New York Post, Washington Free Beacon, and RealClearInvestigations.
Additionally, there has been a reported 400% surge in requests for paid protesters in D.C. since Trump's policy announcements, as noted by Crowds on Demand, a crowd-rental company.
While the company did not name specific clients for these protests, its CEO indicated that a significant portion of inquiries relate to anti-Trump advocacy, and that many D.C. political events involve compensated participants (e.g., staffers or hired crowds) to amplify turnout. Soros personally contributed $20 million to "crowds on demand" services for demonstrations like these.
