The next chapter of lunar exploration is picking up speed. 🚀 We're accelerating production of @NASA's Orion spacecraft for Artemis III, IV and V, expanding our workforce and streamlining operations to support a sustained human presence on the Moon.

We announced New Glenn’s third stage today (GS3). The team recently completed testing of what we expect will be the largest composite LH2 tank ever flown in space. The tank was pressurized (at cryo temps) above 100% of the Maximum Expected Operating Pressure (MEOP) for flight and cycled 10 times (totaling over 2.5 hours) and over 10 minutes at 150% MEOP. GS3 stands 37 feet tall and is housed in an interstage, preserving the full fairing volume for customer payloads.

Yesterday's flooding in Brevard Co was considered a 1,000 year flood. So does that means it will be another 1000 years before another one happens? Not really. We explain what a 1,000 year flood REALLY means⤵️

Neuralink deep dive
Full HUGE* If True episode on Neuralink and the future of brain computer interfaces I toured @neuralink and got a close up view of their new R1 surgical robot, to see the future they and @elonmusk are building and how it is already changing lives... 00:00 What if you put a chip in your brain? 01:02 What does a human brain feel like? 02:17 How does your brain work? 03:58 Can a brain computer interface read your thoughts? 05:19 How do you get a chip into your brain? 08:07 What’s inside Neuralink’s implant? 10:06 How do you build a brain implant? 11:07 How does robot do brain surgery? 12:20 What could you do with a brain chip? 15:05 How are brain computer interfaces already being used today? 16:07 How are brain chips huge if true?

Replying to @SPCX100T
Terrestrial compute will be peanuts compared to orbital compute. Orbital compute deployed per month probably exceeds terrestrial around the end of 2028 and then far exceeds it in 2029.

Neuralink’s first product is called Telepathy. It enables high-speed communication with computers or humans simply by thinking. Output bandwidth will vastly exceed the fastest human speech or typing in a few years. Read that sentence again.
Our engineers recently visited one of our speech restoration study participants for a 72-hour hackathon. The goal: rapidly prototype as many features as possible to enhance the experience of using Neuralink to communicate with thought. Here are some of the things we built 🧵
