  • Elon Musk's SpaceX now owns two-thirds of active satellites after 10,000th Starlink launch
    October 21, 2025, 12:10 PM EDT. SpaceX has deployed the 10,000th Starlink satellite, boosting Elon Musk's influence as the fleet now accounts for roughly two-thirds of all active satellites in low-Earth orbit. As of Oct 20, 8,562 of 12,955 active satellites are Starlink, with about 1,500 more either inactive or no longer in orbit. SpaceX aims to expand to 42,000 satellites (with permission for 12,000) while rivals like OneWeb trail. The milestone coincides with SpaceX's record year of 132 Falcon 9 launches. Starlink satellites, designed to last ~5 years, reenter via a controlled burn. Experts caution that debris from deorbiting could affect the atmosphere and climate, though ground risks remain uncertain.

If approved, tests would be conducted in close collaboration with the municipality and local entities. This follows earlier mixed results in Sweden, including a rejected bid to test in Stockholm and ongoing policy updates by the Swedish Traffic Department as it studies automation risks and city-wide deployment challenges.
  • Exynos 2600 on 2nm signals Samsung foundry revival for Galaxy S26
    October 21, 2025, 12:04 PM EDT. Samsung's foundry momentum gets a boost as the Exynos 2600 rides a 2nm process, aimed at powering the Galaxy S26 lineup. After 3nm yields and thermal woes, Samsung plans to deploy the 2nm node across most S26 models, with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 reserved for select regions. The move underpins renewed customer confidence, including a Tesla deal that validates Samsung's 2nm capabilities. CTO Song Jae-hyuk says the 2nm roadmap could help Samsung gain leadership in the AI semiconductor sector as yields push toward ~70% by year-end or early next year, boosting demand and chipmaking prospects.
