Researchers tested Google's large language model (LLM) Gemini to classify celestial artefacts in three sky-survey datasets-Pan-STARRS, MeerLICHT, and ATLAS-using a 15-example prompt that sorted items into No interest, Low interest, and High interest. After a six-month update to Gemini's algorithms, the study found robust accuracy: 91.9% (ATLAS), 93.4% (MeerLICHT), and 94.1% (Pan-STARRS). The work demonstrates how AI can rapidly sift through massive astronomical data, reducing time and resources needed for event identification, such as explosive events and exotic transients. Lead author Dr. Stephen Smartt of Oxford notes that the LLM's ability to classify with minimal task-specific training could be a game changer for the field. This approach aligns with broader AI applications in astronomy, from exoplanet detection to gravitational waves.

Preceding GOES-1 were polar-orbiting TIROS-1 satellites that could only image a location twice daily. By staying fixed about 22,300 miles above the equator, GOES-1 delivered continuous data and the first weather-imaging feed from space, reshaping forecasting. From its grainy black-and-white footage to today's GOES-R series, geopositioned satellites have become essential tools in meteorology. As AI is integrated into forecasting in 2025, the field remembers the NASA/NOAA engineers who laid the foundation five decades ago.

More than 1,000 attendees heard about the technology's pivot point and the need for ethical AI, with speakers like Will Jefferies urging careful consideration of risks and benefits. Loc Nguyen compared AI to driving a car - powerful but requiring responsibility. Students like Katie Irwin raised concerns about environmental impact, misinformation, and reliance on AI in learning, even as Irwin uses it to help code robots. Others, including Erik Iverson, praised time savings but emphasized keeping humans in the loop to ensure technology enhances rather than replaces human work.

The rocket achieved its first triple-digit launch year in 2024, with 2025 already pushing toward a second, and 2026 expected to produce a third. The surge is fueled largely by Starlink constellation, which accounts for roughly three-quarters of 2025 launches. As Starship advances toward operational status, SpaceX plans to sunset Falcon 9 and shift more launches to Starship, especially for Starlink once orbital missions begin. Gwynne Shotwell has signaled that this year and next year I anticipate will be the highest Falcon launch rates that we will see, foreshadowing a gradual transition as Starship matures.

In tests, it resembled Chrome/Safari but with a chatting companion and built-in deal highlighting and price comparisons. Early roadblocks included messages limit reached, no available models support the tools in use, and a free plan limit for GPT-5. OpenAI touts Atlas as a step toward a true super-assistant and a potential revenue stream, likely through subscriptions rather than ads. The tool could feed on vast user data to improve navigation and recommendations, raising questions about privacy and data use. For now, Atlas appears to be a premium product that may only deliver full capabilities to paying users, signaling big changes if the experiment scales.
