EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Inside the startup building the world’s first commercial fleet of crewed submarines to support the U.S. Military.
Maritime Operations Group is aiming to augment the U.S. Navy as America’s fast-attack submarine fleet has declined from more than 90 to roughly 48. With fewer nuclear submarines available, the Navy must use costly submarine hours for training, testing, and adversary exercises in addition to real-world missions.
MOG plans to fill that gap with commercially operated diesel-electric submarines for red teaming, acting as enemy submarines during training, alongside special operations support and undersea R&D.
The company announced exclusively to Atoms Not Bits that it is in the process of acquiring its first submarine.

My low pain adhesives company Nuceptive Labs is seeking a Chief Commercial Officer to drive healthcare market traction for our skin friendly wound care platform.
Our founding team has built an excellent core adhesive technology with very little capital. Our adhesive products stick like Duct Tape and remove like a Post-It note.
Role qualifications include significant industry relationships and business development experience with medical distributors and providers.
This is a U.S. based role. Please message me directly if someone in network comes to mind.

Big news at Fervo today. fervoenergy.com/fervo-energy…
David McColl retweeted
I don’t think it’s right to use Fervo as an example here as it’s pretty well documented how pivotal early support was from philanthropically backed institutions, like Stanford Climate Ventures, TomKat and Activate, to getting Fervo launched.

1/Closing the year out at Fervo with one more big announcement: a new funding round. Fervo has raised a $462 million Series E led by B Capital to accelerate our geothermal pipeline.
Everyone in climate knows it’s time to get to business when Ash brings out the blue suit 💥
“How are we going to power all of these data centers??”
I’m not worried, @TimMLatimer is on it
1/Last year, we announced the world’s first commercially successful next-gen geothermal project, and we told y’all it was just the beginning. Today we are excited to unveil the next phase of our partnership with Google, a massive scaleup to deliver 115 MW.

Great work @TimMLatimer and the whole Fervo team! This round brings in many drilling experts who will help put more geothermal projects in the ground
Some exciting @fervoenergy news.
We’ve raised a new $244m funding round from leading investors to accelerate development of next-generation geothermal. Demand for 24/7 carbon free energy has never been more urgent, and we’re ready to meet the challenge.

ALT This asset features a doctor or scientist in a lab coat, holding a tablet and inspecting a chest x-ray. Two red shapes can be seen on the scan, representing nodules that have been detected - a magnifying glass icon with an exclamation mark can be seen to the right, with a few lines of text. Finally, the Vertex AI icon is featured in the top of the frame, to represent the tech which makes the enhanced nodule detection possible.
