:Before stepping aboard the most powerful rocket ever built, Artemis II commander Reid Wiseman took his two daughters, Ellie and Katherine, for a quiet walk — and had one of the hardest conversations any parent can face.He spoke openly about his will, the trust documents, and the practical steps they would need to take if he didn’t come home. It was a moment of raw honesty, preparing his teenage girls for the worst-case scenario on a mission that would carry him farther from Earth than any human had ever traveled.Since losing his wife, Carroll, to cancer in 2020, Wiseman has raised Ellie and Katherine as a single father while training for NASA’s first crewed lunar mission in more than 50 years. Through it all, he has approached both fatherhood and his astronaut duties with the same quiet strength and transparency.Just before launch, he shared a heartfelt selfie with his daughters in front of the towering SLS rocket at Launch Pad 39B. His caption captured the mix of pride and love: “Dad, we can’t leave the rocket without a .5 together!! I love these two ladies, and I’m boarding that rocket a very proud father.”At 50 years old, Wiseman became the first commander of a lunar mission since Gene Cernan on Apollo 17 — and the oldest person ever to travel beyond low Earth orbit. His daughters watched with pride as their father lifted off toward the Moon on April 1, 2026.This deeply human story reminds us that behind every historic achievement lies profound personal sacrifice. Reid Wiseman’s courage — as both a dedicated father and a pioneering astronaut — beautifully embodies love, resilience, and the unbreakable human spirit that continues to reach for the stars.

It's time for more work to resolve this.

South Africa leads Africa’s data centre market with 41 facilities, far ahead of Nigeria (15) and Kenya (16). With fewer than 200 data centres across the continent, much of Africa’s digital data is still stored overseas.

@kenyanpundit @KEPSA_KENYA should not remain silent on this. Which workforce will we be speaking about in 10 years?

@kenyanpundit This is a serious discussion. For those who are following closely this season, NSSF and PSSF funds are being invested in quite a number of projects. I have heard about a 5K note. Perhaps we should be more vigilant if history were to repeat itself. These were shared experiences.

Today, data centers serve as the foundational and most critical infrastructure that either enables or constrains digital transformation in large enterprises. Their impact is multifaceted and often determines the speed, scale, and success of transformation initiatives.

You cannot disrupt but only integrate technology solutions into SME communities. A fact we have learned @OpenBusinessPOS

You start to see the ecosystem differently. The companies that will dominate the next phase of African tech growth won't be the ones that master individual markets. They'll be the ones that understand how African markets connect, complement, and amplify each other.

The Tech Ecosystem Builder: "You are not just building companies - you are building interconnected pieces of the technology ecosystem from infrastructure (data centers) to applications (POS SaaS) to community (women in tech nonprofit)." This is how someone recently described me.

[Dorcas Muthoni @DorcasMuthoni]

Running three tech organizations has taught me something most tech leaders never experience: how markets connect and differ in ways that create unexpected opportunities.
