SpaceX’s recent IPO and Starship rocket test flight delivered two big data points that offer a realistic vision for the coming years — and one that may disappoint both the company’s boosters and its critics. Hidden behind the fantastic expectations for AI enterprise profits and plans for a moon base is a more grounded reality: An expendable Starship could keep SpaceX in business, but doesn’t achieve the cost reductions — or frontier business models — Elon Musk is betting on. SpaceX is many businesses, but right now only one is producing significant revenue. Starlink, its satellite communications network, is the…

Thousands of people descended on the city’s seafront over the Bank Holiday weekend, and today (26 May) has been no different. In July 2025, more than 24 tonnes of rubbish have been cleared from Brighton beach after soaring temperatures saw thousands flock to the seafront.

Reid Hoffman has given more than 75 speeches since 2024 – he just hasn’t been at all of them. Hoffman trained an AI model on roughly 22 years of his public work – emails, articles, podcasts, speeches – and the resulting digital twin, Reid AI, has been delivering addresses and presentations on his behalf ever since. It’s been used for external appearances, internal coaching sessions and team Q&As, all in Hoffman’s voice, reasoning style and framing. He’s not alone – a number of executives are building AI replicas trained on their own archives, redistributing their time by letting the twin…

American Airlines said Tuesday it plans to install Starlink on more than 500 narrow-body Airbus aircraft beginning early next year, the latest carrier to pick the SpaceX unit for inflight Wi-Fi service. The deal provides more than just financial lift for Starlink, the satellite communications network and the only SpaceX business unit that generates meaningful revenue. It also hands SpaceX a win over the competition — such as Amazon Leo and other legacy providers like Viasat. Starlink satellites use a low Earth orbit to provide broadband internet for consumers as well as enterprise customers like American Airlines. The company has…

Tuesday 26 May 2026 6:09 pm  |  Updated:  Tuesday 26 May 2026 6:10 pm English wine is on the up, from Kent’s new Wine Garden of England collective to the Surrey Hills Wine Week. How English counties are racing to establish distinct regional identitiesEnglish wine is considered a collaborative rather than a competitive industry. The feeling was “a rising tide lifts all ships” as our wines began to gain respect and popularity here and internationally. Recently however there has been a push by certain counties to establish themselves as regionally different, in the same way French and Italian regions do.  In…

During Tuesday’s net zero committee, members identified and agreed 16 new sites for solar arrays ranging from 35kWp to 300kwWp. The list does not include Langside Halls, which has been closed to the public since 2017 for repairs.  The installation of solar arrays is expected to cost around £2.5 million and they can last up to 25 years.   During the committee, Councillor Stephen Docherty asked if the council had looked at Langside Halls, which is owned by the council and operated by Glasgow Life on their behalf, as part of the project. Councillor Docherty said: “Langside Halls is getting refurbished…
