Long Horizon Summit: @GenAstronautics builds robots for in-space operations (because space is labor-limited).
By founder @bramschork's math, astronauts spent 3,000 hours on maintenance and repair on the ISS last year. That is about $3 billion of labor.

We call on France to exercise restraint when dispersing the freedom fighters on the streets of Paris. These brave warriors for justice must receive immediate humanitarian aid, and their safety must be guaranteed in accordance with international law. Failure to comply will leave us no choice but to bring a case before the ICJ, in close cooperation with that renowned champion of human rights, Afghanistan.

It was WEIRD. @bramschork and @rookisaacman sounded like were mind-melded at the @ycombinator event.
Bram talked about @GenAstronautics work on super-intelligent robots in space ... and then @NASAAdmin told the whole crowd that what we really need is "robots in space" and "robots on the Moon".
An exciting week in Washington, D.C., representing @GenAstronautics at @ycombinator 's Startup Industrial Base: Building for the Next 250.
We are incredibly thankful for NASA Administrator @rookisaacman @NASAAdmin for taking the time to share his unrelenting belief in the need for American robotic dominance on orbit.
Mr. Administrator, we hear you, and we are proud to answer the call. America's Next 250 is the era of superintelligent robotic abundance.

Please just make it stop.
A new personal AI assistant has arrived. Meet Tab, which announced Tuesday that it had officially emerged from stealth.

ICYMI: @bramschork presented on the Space Founders panel at @ycombinator's Startup Industrial Base: Building for the Next 250 in Washington, D.C. last week.
As NASA Administrator @NASAAdmin put it during his fireside chat: “If you're playing around with robotics in space, there's going to be demand, there's going to be national security demands for it.”
The time to build robots for space is now.

General Astronautics is proud to be a sponsor of the Berkeley Space Symposium 2026 hosted by NewSpace @ Berkeley. Come find our booth to grab some merch, hear about open roles, and learn how we're making space more than a place we visit.

wow so much drama about navier stokes. had no idea things could blow up so infinitely in such a finite time.

We're working to make access to orbit (and not just LEO) a lot more straightforward, for everyone.

Introducing our tech roadmap at @cosmic_robotics to start autonomous city construction on Mars in the mid-2030s.
Our team includes senior talent from SpaceX, Tesla, Google, Amazon, Zoox, Nuro, and Autodesk.
We're already deploying robots on large-scale construction sites.
Link to roadmap in the thread below:

I grew up on food stamps in rural Kentucky. I have founded a company that makes clean, safe nuclear energy. I have created hundreds of jobs and will create thousands more. My family and I have bled sweat and cried to build this.
The idea that you can just steal this from me is awful and evil. You are not the good guys

Today, @thelcjones and I excited to announce @cosmic_robotics has joined @ycombinator's summer batch to accelerate our mission:
Building autonomous construction robots to build a city on Mars.
And our systems are already at work today on some of the largest energy projects in the US.

"We're wasting all this energy, time, technology and thought going somewhere where there's nothing alive."

Standing on the shoulders of giants.
As the Artemis II crew prepares for launch no earlier than April 1, they recently took a moment to pay homage to the Apollo 10 crew and the groundwork they laid for the Artemis II Moon mission.

.@GenAstronautics builds autonomous robotics for space.
In microgravity, proteins crystallize without defects and semiconductors form without flaws, but astronaut time is scarce. They are enabling scale for the work that can't be done anywhere else.
Congrats on the launch, @BramSchork and @ShiboZhou!

Hey all, I am Krish, 24 months ago I couldn't tell a resistor from a capacitor and have since built working 300V EV charging systems, smart locks, and logic analyzers for FPGAs. Now, I'm diving into gate-level neuron design. I learn fast, build faster and deliver what I promise.
Looking for Spring '25 internships - let's build something legendary.
A look at the charging board I designed for the 300V battery system.

Fun fact: “la sombrita” and starship took about the same amount of time.
