You used space today without realizing it.
Which example surprised you most? 🛰️
#SpaceTech
You spend 40 years working for money.
80,000 hours of your life.
Then you realize those who control it can create more at will, eroding the value of everything you saved.
You traded something finite—your time—for something they can keep creating.
🚀 SPACE STOCKS RADAR
$RKLB — Launch machine 🚀
$ASTS — Direct-to-phone 📡
$LUNR — Moon infrastructure 🌕
$VOYG — Starlab + space infrastructure 🛰️
$IRDM — Global satellite connectivity 🌍
$SPCX — Starship + Starlink 🔥
Six stocks. Six different bets on the space economy.
Which one are you holding for the next 10 years? 👇
We’re living through an absurd chapter of history:
GTA VI is leaking.
Starship survived reentry and is being towed to Australia.
Over 100,000 commercial flights cross the skies every day.
Satellite internet is becoming normal.
Humanoid robots are cooking.
AI is rewriting almost everything.
The future didn’t arrive gradually.
It kicked the door down all at once.
What a time to be alive.
🚨 STARSHIP HAS REACHED AUSTRALIAN TERRITORY 🇦🇺🚀
25 days after launching from Texas, surviving reentry and splashing down in the Indian Ocean, Ship 40 is being towed off Christmas Island.
SpaceX may now inspect an intact, flown Starship.
An engineering gold mine.
Space X recovering Flight 13’s Starship, just look at that sunset video Clip 🤯
Most people think Mechazilla guides Super Heavy $SPCX home like an ILS guides an aircraft.
It doesn’t work that way.
The tower doesn’t fly the booster.
The booster flies itself.
Its onboard GNC constantly asks:
📍 Where am I?
🎯 Where should I be?
🎮 What correction is needed?
Grid fins steer.
Raptors brake and maneuver.
The tower verifies and catches.
If any critical check fails, Super Heavy diverts to the sea.
It’s essentially an autonomous autoland—except the “aircraft” is a 70-meter rocket returning to two giant chopsticks.
What’s more impressive: the return or the catch? 🚀🥢
🚨 STARSHIP IS FLOATING IN THE INDIAN OCEAN! 🚨
It survived reentry, completed its splashdown—and remained afloat.
SpaceX may now gain something even more valuable than telemetry: the opportunity to inspect the actual vehicle after flight.
Every burn, crack and damaged tile is priceless data.
A massive moment for the Starship program. 🚀🔥
This is the part that excites me most:
Telemetry tells SpaceX what happened.
The vehicle itself can tell them why.
If Starship can be recovered or closely inspected, every tile, weld and burn mark becomes priceless engineering data.
A floating spacecraft is an engineering gold mine. 🚀🔥
$RKLB IS BUILDING THE HANDS OF THE SPACE ECONOMY. 🤖🛰️
Rocket Lab Robotics has received additional work under NASA’s Fly Foundational Robots program.
Its robotic arm will:
• Use tools autonomously
• “Walk” across spacecraft
• Replace modular components in orbit
In plain English: satellites may no longer need to be discarded when one component breaks or becomes obsolete.
Rocket Lab acquired Motiv in May.
Now the strategy is becoming clear:
Launch the spacecraft.
Build the spacecraft.
Operate the spacecraft.
Repair and upgrade it in orbit.
Most companies want to own a satellite.
Rocket Lab wants to own its entire lifecycle.
$RKLB JUST WON A $266M U.S. SPACE FORCE CONTRACT. 🚀
12 suborbital launches.
Option for 6 more.
From Alaska through 2028.
🚀 SOMETHING SPECIAL IS HAPPENING HERE.
Astronomy. Aeronautics. Science. Space stocks.
Different worlds. One community built around aviation, space and the future.
To everyone joining this mission: thank you.
Introduce yourself below.
Let’s connect the crew. 👇
NEW CREW — WAVE 2 🫡
Today we share ideas.
If this community keeps growing, maybe one day we’ll launch something together. 🛰️
