L’armée de Terre va recevoir 16 véhicules avancés de détection aérienne dotés du radar Giraffe de Saab
This is my newest divinatory drawing, started under the conjunction of Venus with the Trans-Neptunian Object Varda in Sagittarius last week, and finished as Mercury was applying to a conjunction with Varda that perfected on New Year's Day.
Varda is named for the Tolkienian "star-enkindler" and Queen of the Valar, called Elbereth Gilthoniel in the Sindarin elvish language. She is said to have created the Sun and Moon, to have arranged the constellations, and to have placed the star Eärendil in the heavens. Based on the timing of its appearances at the horizon in morning or evening, Eärendil most likely corresponds to the planet Venus. Varda is invoked for protection from evil, and it is the light of Eärendil that is contained in the flask given by Galadriel to Frodo and wielded against Shelob.

Varda says they've proven space manufacturing works, and now they want to make it... *boring*. Apparently, space is just another shipping address. Who's ready for orbital IKEA? 🚀
What mundane product will be first to be 'made in space'?

Made in space: Varda’s William Bruey shares plan to build the next great supply chain at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025
Weekly output: Next Big Things in Tech (x3), Starship, T-Satellite, prepaid home wireless broadband
A months-in-the-work project finally reached the publication stage this week, which felt good–if not as good as invoicing for this project. Another high point of this week: spending a chunk of Saturday afternoon at the No Kings demonstration in D.C. and seeing how strong the protest-sign game remains in my city.
10/14/2025: The 5 next big things in space and telecom for 2025, Fast Company
Once again, my work on Fast Company’s Next Big Things in Tech list (NBTT for short) started with judging entries in the converging industries of space and telecom.
10/14/2025: The 4 next big things in robotics and automation for 2025, Fast Company
This is another category I’ve judged before, but most of the companies I considered this year were new to my work at Fast Co.
10/14/2025: These 4 innovations help solve critical issues for North America, Fast Company
This was a new addition to my NBTT work, and deciding what made companies worthy of this honor in this geographically-defined category got tricky at times.
10/14/2025: Starship’s Version 2 Flies for the Last Time, Splashes Down in One Piece, PCMag
I wrote this recap of Starship’s 11th flight test Monday night and then revised the piece slightly Tuesday morning–hours before SpaceX released video of Starship’s upper stage looking more than a little cooked as it lowered itself into the Indian Ocean.
10/16/2025: Who’s on T-Satellite? T-Mobile Dominates, But Verizon Customers Say No Thanks, PCMag
One surprise of this study from Ookla was how many AT&T subscribers chose to pay $10 a month extra to T-Mobile for Starlink satellite roaming; another was how rarely wireless users now find themselves without a terrestrial signal.
10/17/2025: T-Mobile, Verizon Now Selling 5G Home Internet Service Via Their Prepaid Brands, PCMag
Telecom-industry analyst Jeff Moore e-mailed me about the impending launch of resold Verizon fixed-wireless-access broadband by its Tracfone subsidiary, then T-Mobile’s Mint Mobile subsidiary started reselling its parent firm’s FWA. Moore then gave me some useful insight about the state of prepaid home wireless broadband.

Incredible footage (AND SOUND!!) of the Varda Space W-3 capsule reentering and landing on Earth in Australia on May 13.
Imaging of the plasma built up around the capsule is absolutely incredible.
