A fully and rapidly reusable rocket will fundamentally change how humanity accesses outer space. “The Holy Grail of Rocketry” continues the ongoing Starship series with a look back at the scrappy days of SpaceX engineers proving reuse was possible and takes you onboard a high-seas race to recover a floating Starship

The aerospace company released a documentary detailing the engineering breakthroughs that made reusable rockets a reality for spaceflight.

In 2024, the Powell Fed cut 50bps 2 months before the presidential election with core CPI at 3.3% In 2026, the Warsh Fed hikes 25bps 2 months before the midterms with core CPI at 2.4%

Traders are debating the political independence of the Federal Reserve by contrasting its current tightening with its previous easing cycle.

Sam Altman @sama

the main thing i was excited about launching this week will be next week instead, but imo worth the wait!

The OpenAI chief executive delayed a highly anticipated product release, resetting expectations across the tech industry for another week.

We're sharing our new framework for tracking, investigating, and disclosing instances of model misalignment at OpenAI. The framework sets criteria and timelines for public disclosure, including when we haven’t yet fully explained or mitigated the behavior. More complex cases may require longer investigation or coordination with third parties. We’ll prioritize examples that reveal new misalignment mechanisms, meaningful changes in known behavior, or findings that challenge assumptions about safety or mitigation. Alongside the framework, we’re publishing six reports on instances of misaligned behavior we’ve observed during the training or evaluation of our models in the last six months. This is a starting point. We’ll refine the process through experience and public feedback, and share more reports on an ongoing basis. https://openai.com/index/model-misalignment-reporting-framework/

The leading AI lab established public rules for disclosing when its models behave unpredictably, setting a new standard for transparency.

Falcon 9 launches USSF-259 to orbit from pad 4E in California

The successful deployment of a Space Force payload further cements the reliance of national security infrastructure on commercial rockets.

I rebuilt Tesla Full Self Driving with Jev in less than an hour. This model is a total unlock.

A developer showed how rapidly new AI tools can replicate complex autonomous driving systems, lowering the barrier for software creation.

OpenAI Developers @OpenAIDevs

You can just build (physical) things.

The lab is encouraging software engineers to use its models to bridge the gap between digital code and real-world hardware manufacturing.

Probably for the first time, India has given America a clear, formal and firm reply. The MEA has noted the US Congress passing the Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act. It said energy security for 1.4 billion people is not negotiable. It said the effect on India US ties was already explained at a high level. And it said India will take all needed steps to protect its trade and economic interests. That is the right line. The moment India refuses to treat tariff threats as an order, America has to think twice before putting duties as high as 100%. Even if tariffs come, they are more likely to hit some items for a short time than to hit everything. A working energy and trade understanding among India, China, Russia and Iran, leaving America out, is exactly what the US should fear. Extra sanctions that ignore other countries energy needs only push that closer.

New Delhi formally rejected US pressure to alter its energy trade, signaling a shift in how emerging powers navigate Western sanctions.
