An exciting week in Washington, D.C., representing @GenAstronautics at @ycombinator 's Startup Industrial Base: Building for the Next 250.
We are incredibly thankful for NASA Administrator @rookisaacman @NASAAdmin for taking the time to share his unrelenting belief in the need for American robotic dominance on orbit.
Mr. Administrator, we hear you, and we are proud to answer the call. America's Next 250 is the era of superintelligent robotic abundance.

Ship issues be like:
propulsion-induced harmonic resonance generated excessive cyclic structural stresses in the aft section, causing fatigue damage and propellant leakage that initiated a fire, compromised critical systems
Booster issues be like:
it aint got no gas in it
Sometimes I think we're catching up but then I try to buy a @formlabs form 4 and it gives me a 7 week lead time

Ideal venue to build space robots – at Cologne, Germany
🌎 General Astronautics is in Cologne, Germany for i-SAIRAS & iSpaRo 2026 to connect with the researchers, operators, and partners shaping the future of space robotics.
We believe space robotic systems should be as easy to implement as solar and comms, so we're developing the manipulation platform to do exactly that.
If you’re working on in-space servicing, robotic assembly, or serviceable spacecraft, let's connect!

🗣️ future founders: the best way to learn how to build a deeptech company that will revolutionize an industry is to join a startup doing exactly that.

I remember staying up late to watch SpaceX launches, only for a weather hold to ruin the night.
Now they're launching every 3 days.
Soon, when one launch gets scrubbed, we'll just change the channel to watch another rocket launch from the other side of the country.
Due to unfavorable weather, we are standing down from today's @Starlink launch. Next opportunity is no earlier than Friday, October 23

Long Horizon Summit: @GenAstronautics builds robots for in-space operations (because space is labor-limited).
By founder @bramschork's math, astronauts spent 3,000 hours on maintenance and repair on the ISS last year. That is about $3 billion of labor.
the universe has a funny way of knowing what days you get home late to decide when to break your elevator

We call on France to exercise restraint when dispersing the freedom fighters on the streets of Paris. These brave warriors for justice must receive immediate humanitarian aid, and their safety must be guaranteed in accordance with international law. Failure to comply will leave us no choice but to bring a case before the ICJ, in close cooperation with that renowned champion of human rights, Afghanistan.
saas startups I beg of you either:
a) get better at remembering i'm logged in or
b) put a sign in button on the home screen!! (not sure how we lost the art of this)

least favorite trend is companies releasing utterly useless MCPs to force you to use the prev-gen integrated chatbot on their website

hypothetically if one had ansys and nx and $1M of tokens expiring in December what’s the best way to parallelize agents to get this done?
