Galactic Gold Rush: Global Satellite & Space Industry Soars Toward $1 Trillion

In 2024 the global space economy was valued at roughly $550–600 billion, with projections to approach $1 trillion within 10–15 years. North America, led by the U.S., accounted for about 60% of world space spending in 2024, with American firms building 83% of all commercial satellites launched that year and earning 69% of global satellite manufacturing revenue, while capturing about 65% of commercial launch revenues. 2024 set a record with 259 orbital launches and 2,695 satellites deployed, driven largely by SpaceX’s activity. Global satellite manufacturing revenues in 2024 reached about $20 billion, up 17% from 2023, with the U.S. responsible

From Battlefields to Space: How Ukraine’s Satellite Program Skyrocketed in 2024-2025

In March 2025 Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense created a Space Policy Directorate to coordinate military space efforts. The crowdfunded ICEYE SAR satellite nicknamed the “People’s Satellite” remained Ukraine’s only satellite under national control, since 2022. Deputy Defense Minister Kateryna Chernohorenko outlined a 2030 roadmap to deploy Ukrainian defense satellites and an air-launch early-warning system. In June 2025 the European Space Agency council reinforced collaboration with Ukraine’s SSAU, providing technical assistance on Earth observation, space weather, and exploration. In April 2025 the EU Commission and Ukraine signed an agreement enabling participation in the EU Space Programme with access to Copernicus data

Drone Warfare and Developments in Ukraine (2024–2025)

Drone Warfare and Developments in Ukraine (2024–2025)

By 2025, Ukraine had around 500 drone manufacturers operating domestically. Ukraine aims to produce four million drones annually, with FPV drone output rising from about 20,000 per month in 2024 to 200,000 per month in 2025. Operation Spiderweb on June 1, 2025, deployed 117 FPV drones from inside Russia, damaged 41 aircraft across four airbases, and Zelensky claimed about 34% of Russia’s strategic bomber fleet was hit in one night. In 2024, the Ukrainian Armed Forces conducted about 130 long-range drone operations, striking 377 targets inside Russia including airbases, depots, and energy facilities. Analysts estimate drones account for roughly 70%

America’s Internet Divide Exposed: The Truth About Access, Speed, and the Satellite Revolution

America’s Internet Divide Exposed: The Truth About Access, Speed, and the Satellite Revolution

The BEAD program provides $42.45 billion in federal broadband funding administered by the NTIA to states to extend high-speed internet, with a 2025 policy shift to technology-neutral approaches that allow satellite solutions. The Affordable Connectivity Program provides a $30 per month subsidy and had about 18 million enrolled by 2023, with renewal funding uncertain in 2024–2025.

Complete Overview of Casio G-SHOCK: Features, Models, News, and Market Comparisons

Complete Overview of Casio G-SHOCK: Features, Models, News, and Market Comparisons

Casio’s Kikuo Ibe formed ‘Project Team Tough’ in 1981 and pursued the ‘Triple 10’ target—10 m drop, 10-bar water resistance, and 10-year battery life—which culminated in the 1983 release of the DW-5000C G-SHOCK. In 1984 Casio aired the ‘Hockey Puck’ ad featuring the DW-5200, which boosted G-SHOCK’s tough reputation and earned the model the nickname ‘Hero’. The first analog G-SHOCK, the AW-500, was introduced in 1989, marking the transition from digital-only to analog-digital hybrid designs. The 1992 DW-6100 added a built-in thermometer to G-SHOCK watches. The Frogman line began with the DW-6300 in 1993 and became G-SHOCK’s ISO-certified 200m dive

The Race to 6G: How the Next-Gen Network Will Revolutionize Connectivity (and Leave 5G in the Dust)

The Race to 6G: How the Next-Gen Network Will Revolutionize Connectivity (and Leave 5G in the Dust)

6G will operate in sub-terahertz bands roughly 0.1–1 THz, enabling peak data rates up to 1 Tbps under ideal conditions, a goal highlighted by researchers like Mahyar Shirvanimoghaddam. Ultra-low latency targets microseconds, specifically about 1 µs one-way, enabling real-time holographic video, tactile Internet, and near-instantaneous AR/VR. AI-native architecture: 6G will embed AI/ML at its core, with industry players like Nokia Bell Labs aiming to validate an AI-native air interface. Integrated sensing and imaging: 6G will fuse wireless communication with sensing to enable millimeter-precision positioning and environmental monitoring. Ubiquitous connectivity across ground, air, and space: non-terrestrial networks (NTN) are designed in

Chiplet Technology 2025: Design Tools, Yield Challenges, and Market Adoption

Chiplet Technology 2025: Design Tools, Yield Challenges, and Market Adoption

Chiplet architecture splits monolithic chips into multiple dies in a single package, improving wafer yields and reducing cost, with AMD reporting up to 70% cost reduction in EPYC servers versus a comparable single-die design. Chiplets enable mixing of process nodes, for example high-density cores on 5 nm while I/O dies run on 16 nm, maximizing performance-per-cost. Chiplet designs decouple innovation paths, allowing CPU cores and memory/I/O to advance on separate timelines. The Universal Chiplet Interconnect Express (UCIe) defines a universal die-to-die interface with data rates from 8 to 32 GT/s, and UCIe 1.0 launched in 2022. 2.5D/3D packaging approaches such
