Ohio State researchers introduce LUMINA, an agentic AI that assesses lunar landing sites by analyzing topography, geology, and water ice maps to assist planners rather than replacing them.

Spacetech startup Cosmoserve raises $6M in seed round | YourStory

Cosmoserve Space, a Hyderabad spacetech startup, secured $6M in a seed round from Japanese and Indian investors, bringing total funding to over $9M. It opened Base 1, a satellite-servicing and space-debris-recovery facility with labs for orbital capture, robotics, clean-room assembly, and mission simulation, enabling end-to-end design to flight. The company highlights debris as a key challenge, notes substantial local sourcing, and positions Base 1 to support in-orbit repairs, refuelling, and domestic manufacturing. Debris and inactive satellites pose risks to missions and assets like the ISS.

Gemini 4 Carbon tops leaderboards, launches for cyber defenders — Latent Space

The document reports on public discussion about Qwen4 models, potential 1M token context, anticipated releases, and concerns about model variants and data quality; it also covers skepticism toward Cohere's Qwen 3.8 Flash Next claim and emphasizes sandboxing and treating external code with caution.

Blacklift, Big Iron, Medium Lift and Space Infrastructure

The author argues that new rocket plans, lunar projects, satellite networks and orbital computing are making space infrastructure more investible, while warning that rocket development takes years and launch capacity may be tight in the late 2020s. The piece highlights AST SpaceMobile’s $1.3 billion-plus engine deal with FireFly Aerospace and CesiumAstro’s $730 million funding round.
