Interesting project based on the first gen Lotus Elise, there's a fan in the rear similar to GMA T.50, maybe it's just decorative or maybe active underfloor suction is getting popular. Crayon R&D from Singapore:

Gripen will finally fulfill its purpose, shoot down russian jets. If the timeline and procurement plan materialise it will be a new era for Ukraine and Sweden, great timing now that the next generation of European fighter jets is in flux

Luce’s problem is not its distance from “regular” Ferraris, but that it isn’t bold enough. Jony Ive and Marc Newson should have gone completely wild with it and still be a Ferrari. It should have made Modulo look conventional (it won’t sell anyway, there’s no risk)

NASA is using GoPro cameras for the external shots for Orion during Artemis II, but as usual with COTS great in space missions the model is a bit older than the latest one, so currently they're using GoPro hero 4 black!

Mike Melvill build a VariViggen (the first kit plane plans sold by Burt Rutan) and went to Mojave to show it to him, he was hired instantly and stayed until he became the first pilot who flew a commercially developped spacecraft into space, he was 64yo at the time. RIP legend

Article saying that a B-2 (!) landed on a military base in Larissa, Greece because of some issue The photos however showing something that's neither a B-2, nor a drone like RQ170 Not sure how credible is this or if it's actually a US aircraft

Speculative render by Andrei Avarvarii on the upcoming Ferrari Luce. His predictions are usually very accurate but this is wild. If Luce is indeed this wild, it will make quite an impact. Like the interior (looks even cooler here!) it is retro done right

A ridiculous plan with a huge oversized landing module that requires multiple orbital refuel missions should be executed flawlessly in order to survive. HLS development doesn't look flawless so far, many match better executed projects have been cancelled or reassigned before

Unfortunately OX Delivers is about to enter liquidation. The innovative FWD was designed (by Gordon Murray!) as a cheap but capable truck that can be assembled on site from kits. Later it was converted to electric and OX switch to a service provider
