The Deep Space Network is oversubscribed and unavailable for commercial space missions.
Commercial alternatives are limited, fragmented, and unreliable. Even if they worked well, there are not enough.
We are building new, modern infrastructure. Designed to scale.

Earlier this year we closed a $4.5M seed led by Trucks VC, with participation from Paul Graham, Aera VC, Alumni Ventures, Y Combinator, and others. We couldn’t ask for a stronger group in our corner.

Starcloud (@Starcloud_Inc1) recently made history by launching a satellite with an NVIDIA H100 into orbit — the first time a GPU that powerful has ever operated in space. It's the first step toward building AI data centers in orbit, powered by continuous sunlight and cooled by radiating heat into deep space.
Their approach could one day rival the world's biggest data centers while using less energy, zero fresh water, and far lower emissions.
YC's @aaron_epstein visited Starcloud's HQ, where co-founders @philipjohnston, @EzraFeilden, and @Adi_Oltean explained how they built a working prototype in just 15 months — and why big tech is racing to space for AI compute.
We're blown away by the overwhelming response to Pomelli, our new AI tool that helps you connect with your audience faster by creating on-brand content. Senior Product Manager @danielasmarino shows how Pomelli can help you and your business!
@GoogleLabs Thanks for you patience everyone!! We've had unbelievable amount of traffic, but we're back now!!
Give it a try now @ https://t.co/UsaYo5tkHq
Introducing MARS, the first Personal AI Robot.
In technology, getting to the future we want starts with building it together.
This is why we designed Mars. Inspired by early PCs, Mars is a powerful, complete, extendable robot.
It runs BASIC, an open embodied AI agent we created for you to program with code, demonstrations, and prompts. This allows Mars to perform complex long-horizon tasks involving spatial memory, reasoning, manipulation and navigation.

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)
introducing OpenArt Story — turn any idea, script, beat, or character into a stunning 1-min video, complete with motion, music, and a narrative arc
not just a clip - it's a full story
edit if you want, or post as-is
powered by amazing tech from @bfl_ml , @Kling_ai@Hailuo_AI , @PixVerse_ , @FAL, @OpenAI, @Google.
make wonders with OpenArt.
If you’ve ever
- thought AI protein folding is magical ✨
- wanted more than a pLDDT score 🔎
- or just think mech interp in bio is cool 🤓
then read the 🧵 👇 on our first paper towards interpretable protein structure prediction just accepted to workshops at ICLR
In the last couple days about 8-10 of the accounts I follow have independently mentioned that they're on Bluesky. These aren't whiny leftists performatively quitting. This seems an authentic trend.
I created a "starter pack" for people who are migrating over to Bluesky, and who want to follow reputable journalists right from the start.

Congrats to the @astroforge (YC W22) team on the $40M Series A!
Astroforge wants to mine asteroids in space to extract valuable minerals. Their 3rd mission, Vestri, will make history, being the first private mission to land on a body outside our system: https://t.co/ZTRICSbsnV
Built by researchers from MIT, @Sonia_Health (YC W24) is an AI mental health therapist that conducts entire therapy sessions via a phone app for 1% of today's cost.
