  1. Space startups team up for a novel satellite meetup
    Tukwila, Wash.-based Starfish Space and California-based Impulse Space say they’ve successfully demonstrated an in-space satellite rendezvous during a mission that handed over control of an Impulse Mira spacecraft to Starfish’s guidance and navigation system.

  3. 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.

  5. Impulse Space lays out its plan for deliveries to the moon
    Impulse Space, the California-based venture founded by veteran SpaceX engineer Tom Mueller, today unveiled its proposed architecture for delivering medium-sized payloads to the moon by as early as 2028.

  7. Impulse Space is planning to deliver up to 6 tons a year to the Moon. Six tons! Are we just casually ordering stuff to the lunar surface now? The cosmic equivalent of Amazon Prime, perhaps?

    What would *you* have delivered to the Moon if you could?

  12. In-space transportation may be on its way to becoming more of a reality — if a recent deal is any indication. Impulse Space has landed a $34.5 million contract from the U.S. Space Force for two ultra-mobile spacecraft missions. @Techcrunch has the details, including info on upcoming missions: flip.it/InEyQI
