We have first light from Pelican-12! 📸 🛰️ Our first 30 cm class capable satellite captured this high-resolution image of Angola’s capital city, Luanda, on October 30, 2026. The spacecraft will initially deliver 50 cm class imagery, and is designed to capture 30 cm class imagery after being lowered to its operational altitude. Last month was exciting, two launches, two coasts, and one streamlined process: build ➡️ launch ➡️ imagery! investors.planet.com/news/ne…

#PPOD: The Ghostly Cat's Head Nebula 👻 A ghostly feline shape emerges from the clouds of the Carina Nebula in these remarkable views from the @HubbleTelescope and @NASAWebb. Located approximately 7,500 light-years from Earth, this region of gas and dust resembles a cat sitting with its back toward us, its head turned to reveal a glowing eye. Intense ultraviolet radiation and powerful winds from nearby massive stars likely sculpted its unusual shape. Hubble's visible-light observations reveal a dark pillar of dust silhouetted against glowing gas, while JWST's infrared instruments peer deeper into the cloud, uncovering young stars and intricate structures hidden from view. The cat's glowing eye may mark a young star still embedded in dust, while a faint jet-like feature hints at another nearby star in formation. Together, the images reveal how stellar radiation simultaneously sculpts, erodes, and illuminates the clouds where new stars are born. Credit: @NASA, @ESA, @csa_asc, @STScI #astronomy

The Temple of Speed has a number to chase 🎯   324.3 km/h is the fastest Hypercar speed recorded at Monza, set by Romain Dumas behind the wheel of the #708 Glickenhaus 007 LMH in 2022.   Four years on, is a new record on the cards? 👀   #WEC #6HMonza

Omarchy 4.5 will ship with full compatibility for M1, M2, M3, and Neo! Incredible achievement from the Omarchy M team. The installer makes this so smooth, the dual boot makes it a no brainer. Apple hardware liberated. M4-6 on the way. WE CAN FIX EVERYTHING!

More data from the SMILE mission have just been released. Here are the images reprocessed into a polar projection. A stunning substorm progression can be seen with multiple onests spreading east, west, and poleward. These views are incredible!

Gemma 4 in Space. 🛰️ Google Research's Project Suncatcher just booted up data-center TPUs aboard a prototype satellite and ran Gemma 4 in Low Earth Orbit. For its "Hello World" test, engineers on Earth asked Gemma 4 to write a haiku about being in space. Passing over Svalbard, Norway, the satellite downlinked its response: Blue marble below Data streams in silent grace Starlight feeds my core. ✨ Built with Planet and running on a ~1kW solar budget, the team is now testing how TPUs handle heat and radiation in space.

With hackers delegating to agents, we’re seeing a record number of breaches. Would be a good time to get your IoT/smart home devices locked down…
