Artemis II has returned, completing the first crewed Moon mission in 50+ years.

~700,000 miles traveled, record distances reached, and a high-speed reentry at 25,000 mph - paving the way for humanity’s return to the lunar surface.

Point of no return.

Artemis II executed its translunar burn - sending humans beyond Earth orbit for the first time in 50+ years.

The Army just received its first optionally piloted Black Hawk (H-60Mx). It’s capable of flying with or without a crew, controlled by AI or even a tablet on the ground. A major step toward autonomous aviation.

Lt. Gen. Joshua Rudd’s nomination to lead U.S. Cyber Command & NSA has drawn mixed reactions: a Special Ops background rather than cyber expertise, but strong leadership experience - and a Senate vote could come soon. (Breaking Defense)

DoD officials tell Breaking Defense that solving defense affordability isn’t about budgets alone - it demands acquisition reform and smarter use of AI and data to cut cost growth and speed delivery.
