🌕 @gru_space is building durable space habitats so humans can one day live on the Moon and Mars.

Its first missions will mine lunar regolith to construct a long-term pressurized habitat on the Moon for commercial space tourism — a hotel on the Moon.

Congrats on the launch @skyler_chan_!

There are bps of growth yet to be unlocked in every crevice of the economy. We spoke to a handful of the companies applying emerging technologies to lesser known frontiers:

→ @playdate: bringing joy back to handheld hardware with their crank-operated console
→ @atomic_inc: creating physical goods at the speed of bits
→ Light: building infrastructure for a future powered by renewable energy
→ Katalyst: techwear that intensifies your workout 6x
→ Archistar: accelerating permitting by 50% with AI
→ @Lucid_Bots: drones for dangerous cleaning jobs
→ @sorcerer_earth: collecting 1000x more data points for accurate weather forecasting
→ Masquerade: redefining live theater with immersive technology

@lightberryai Can we hire beach boy to launch some @sorcerer_earth balloons? 👀

@notankitsinghal Huge congrats to the Anthrogen team, this is sick.

Introducing Odyssey—the largest and most performant protein language model ever created.

Odyssey enables scientists and researchers to generate and edit proteins, the workhorses of all life on this planet, towards specific functional ends—scaled to over 102 billion parameters.

We did it all with just a core team of 6 and an order of magnitude less funding than our next largest competitor. Here's how it works 🧵 (1/6)

🎈@sorcerer_earth (YC S24) builds weather balloons that can fly for over six months, reach previously inaccessible regions, and collect 1000x more data per dollar than current systems.

Congrats on the launch, @_protopian, @maxmclau, and @big_veech!

Your life can either be a German weather report or a Greek weather report.

Be the Greeks.

It's one thing to wield the data, but you have to make it LOOK good!

Hear from NCEI's @jjrennie on the challenges that can arise just by making a single temperature map 👇

@RARohde Besides precipitation, what else benefits from higher density? And won't satellites be able to solve the problem if they haven't already?

[Dr. Robert Rohde @RARohde]

Many stories could be told from this image alone, but probably the one that people most latch onto is the different levels of investment in on-the-ground weather monitoring between wealthy and poor countries.

[Prof. Eliot Jacobson @EliotJacobson]

It may be too much to take in all at once, but h/t to @leonsimons for pointing me to NOAA ERSST V5 SST monthly data beginning 1854, current through March, 2024.

I included the 50 year average for 1900-1949 for good measure.

This really is the beginning of the end of everything.

Last year I started going regularly to a boxing gym across from my office. My coach convinced me to participate in a charity event, so I am now signed up for a charity boxing match to support @GirlsWhoCode! Details: https://t.co/HAlTJg9WTM
