Welcome to Edition 6.40 of the Rocket Report! There was a lot of exciting news this week. For the first time, SpaceX launched a reusable Falcon 9 booster for a 20th flight. A few miles away at Cape Canaveral, Boeing and United Launch Alliance completed one of the final steps before the first crew launch of the Starliner spacecraft. But I think one of the most interesting things that happened was NASA's decision to ask the space industry for more innovative ideas on how to do Mars Sample Return. I have no doubt that space companies will come up with some fascinating concepts, and I can't wait to hear about them.

Going vertical Down Under. Gilmour Space has raised its privately developed Eris rocket vertical on a launch pad in North Queensland for the first time, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation reports. This milestone marks the start of the next phase of launch preparations for Eris, a three-stage rocket powered by hybrid engines. If successful, Eris would become the first Australian-built rocket to reach orbit. Gilmour says the maiden flight of Eris is scheduled for no earlier than May 4, pending launch permit approvals. This presumably refers to a commercial launch license from the Australian government.
Ground teams on Florida's Space Coast hoisted Boeing's Starliner spacecraft atop its United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket this week, putting all the pieces in place for liftoff next month with two veteran NASA astronauts on a test flight to the International Space Station.
This will be the first time astronauts fly on Boeing's Starliner crew capsule, following two test flights without crew members in 2019 and 2022. The Starliner Crew Flight Test (CFT) next month will wrap up a decade and a half of development and, if all goes well, will pave the way for operational Starliner missions to ferry crews to and from the space station.
Starliner is running years behind schedule and over budget. SpaceX's Crew Dragon spacecraft has flown all of NASA's crew rotation missions to the station since its first astronaut flight in 2020. But NASA wants to get Boeing's spacecraft up and running to have a backup to SpaceX. It would then alternate between Starliner and Crew Dragon for six-month expeditions to the station beginning next year.
Vous êtes un étudiant en informatique, tout frais, tout nouveau, et on vous balance des exercices de programmation à faire. Panique à bord !
Mais attendez, c’est quoi ce truc là-bas ?
Ah bah oui, c’est ChatGPT, votre nouveau meilleur pote ! Il est capable de résoudre vos exos en deux temps trois mouvements, grâce à des techniques de traitement du langage naturel (NLP) et d’analyse de langage de programmation, mais attention, c’est pas si simple.
Des chercheurs ont voulu creuser la question et voir comment ces générateurs de code IA influencent vraiment l’apprentissage des étudiants et pour cela, ils ont réalisé 2 études. Dans la première, ils ont pris 69 étudiants, des novices complets en Python et les ont séparés en deux groupes : Ceux qui utiliseront l’IA et ceux qui coderont à l’ancienne sans IA.
Durant 7 sessions, ils leur ont donné des exos à faire. Les Jedis boostés à l’IA avaient accès à un générateur de code basé sur Codex, un modèle d’apprentissage automatique qui utilise le NLP et l’analyse de langage de programmation pour générer du code à partir des entrées des utilisateurs. Les autres, eux, devaient se débrouiller.
Résultat des courses ?
Les dev augmenté à l’IA ont cartonné ! Ils ont fini 91% des tâches contre 79% pour les autres. En plus, leur code était beaucoup plus correct. Toutefois, sur les tâches où il fallait modifier du code existant, les deux groupes étaient au coude à coude. Ensuite, ils ont fait passer des tests de connaissance aux étudiants, sans l’IA. Et là, surprise ! Les deux groupes ont eu des scores similaires. Mais quand ils ont refait les tests une semaine plus tard, les étudiants du goupe boosté à l’IA ont mieux retenu ce qu’ils avaient appris.
Dans la deuxième étude, les chercheurs ont analysé comment les étudiants utilisaient vraiment le générateur de code. Et là, révélations ! Certains en abusaient grave, genre copier-coller direct la consigne sans réfléchir. Pas cool ! 😅 Mais d’autres étaient plus malins et s’en servaient pour décomposer le problème en sous-tâches ou vérifier leur propre code.
Alors, que faut-il en retenir ?
Et bien que l’IA peut être un super outil pour apprendre à coder, mais à condition savoir l’utiliser intelligemment. C’est pourquoi les concepteurs d’outils et les profs doivent encourager une utilisation responsable et auto-régulée de ces générateurs de code. Sinon, c’est le drame assuré !
Pour ma part, vous le savez, le développement, c’est pas mon truc. Mais depuis que l’IA a débarqué dans ma vie, « sky is the limit » et ça m’aide énormément. Et comme ces étudiants, si je pose mon cerveau que je passe en mode copié-collé IA, à la fin, je vais avoir du caca. Mais si je comprends ce que je veux faire, si je maitrise mon code plus comme un chef de projet bien technique et bien c’est redoutablement efficace. Et ce qui est encore plus cool, c’est que j’apprends plein de trucs. On dit souvent qu’il faut forger pour devenir forgeron. Et bien là c’est le cas, car je ne m’encombre plus des problématiques de syntaxe, et je construis brique par brique mes outils en comprenant tout ce que je fais. Donc l’IA pour développer, oui !! Mais en laissant le cerveau allumé.
En tout cas, une chose est sûre, c’est en train de révolutionner l’apprentissage du code. Ça promet pour le futur mais faudra veiller à ce que les étudiants apprennent vraiment à faire les choses et ne deviennent pas des zombies du copier-coller (on avait déjà le souci avec StackOverflow, cela dit…).
Welcome to Edition 6.38 of the Rocket Report! Ed Dwight was close to joining NASA's astronaut corps more than 60 years ago. With an aeronautical engineering degree and experience as an Air Force test pilot, Dwight met the qualifications to become an astronaut. He was one of 26 test pilots the Air Force recommended to NASA for the third class of astronauts in 1963, but he wasn't selected. Now, the man who would have become the first Black astronaut will finally get a chance to fly to space.

Ed Dwight named to Blue Origin's next human flight. Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos' space company, announced Thursday that 90-year-old Ed Dwight, who almost became the first Black astronaut in 1963, will be one of six people to fly to suborbital space on the company's next New Shepard flight. Dwight, a retired Air Force captain, piloted military fighter jets and graduated test pilot school, following a familiar career track as many of the early astronauts. He was on a short list of astronaut candidates the Air Force provided NASA, but the space agency didn't include him. It took 20 more years for the first Black American to fly to space. Dwight's ticket with Blue Origin is sponsored by Space for Humanity, a nonprofit that seeks to expand access to space for all people. Five paying passengers will join Dwight for the roughly 10-minute up-and-down flight to the edge of space over West Texas. Kudos to Space for Humanity and Blue Origin for making this happen.
The flare-up of highly pathogenic bird flu continues to widen in US livestock after federal officials confirmed last week that the virus has spread to US cows for the first time. The virus has now been detected in dairy cows in at least five states, a single person in Texas exposed to infected cows, and an egg farm in Texas, all spurring yet more intense monitoring and biosecurity vigilance as the situation continues to evolve.
As of Tuesday, seven dairy herds in Texas, two in Kansas, and one each in Idaho, Michigan, and New Mexico had tested positive for the virus. The affected dairy herd in Michigan had recently received cows from one of the infected herds in Texas. It remains unclear if there is cow-to-cow transmission of the flu virus.
The virus—a highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza or HPAI—has been devastating wild birds worldwide for the past several years. Throughout the devastating outbreak, the flu virus has spilled over to various species, including big cats in zoos, river otters, bears, dolphins, seals, squirrels, and foxes. While cows were an unexpected addition to the list, federal officials noted last week that affected dairy farms had found dead wild birds on their farms, suggesting that wild birds introduced the virus to the cows, not an intermediate host.
On Tuesday, the Artist Rights Alliance (ARA) announced an open letter critical of AI signed by over 200 musical artists, including Pearl Jam, Nicki Minaj, Billie Eilish, Stevie Wonder, Elvis Costello, and the estate of Frank Sinatra. In the letter, the artists call on AI developers, technology companies, platforms, and digital music services to stop using AI to "infringe upon and devalue the rights of human artists." A tweet from the ARA added that AI poses an "existential threat" to their art.
Visual artists began protesting the advent of generative AI after the rise of the first mainstream AI image generators in 2022, and considering that generative AI research has since been undertaken for other forms of creative media, we have seen that protest extend to professionals in other creative domains, such as writers, actors, filmmakers—and now musicians.
"When used irresponsibly, AI poses enormous threats to our ability to protect our privacy, our identities, our music and our livelihoods," the open letter states. It alleges that some of the "biggest and most powerful" companies (unnamed in the letter) are using the work of artists without permission to train AI models, with the aim of replacing human artists with AI-created content.

This is the rocket that literally lights itself on fire before it heads to space. It's the world's largest rocket entirely fueled by liquid hydrogen, a propellant that is vexing to handle but rewarding in its efficiency.
The Delta IV Heavy was America's most powerful launch vehicle for nearly a decade and has been a cornerstone for the US military's space program for more than 20 years. It is also the world's most expensive commercially produced rocket, a fact driven not just by its outsize capability but also its complexity.
Now, United Launch Alliance's last Delta IV Heavy rocket is set to lift off Thursday from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida, with a classified payload for the National Reconnaissance Office, the US government's spy satellite agency.
Wild migratory birds likely spread a deadly strain of bird flu to dairy cows in Texas and Kansas, state and federal officials announced this week.
It is believed to be the first time the virus, a highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), has been found in cows in the US. Last week, officials in Minnesota confirmed finding an HPAI case in a young goat, marking the first time the virus has been found in a domestic ruminant in the US.
According to the Associated Press, officials with the Texas Animal Health Commission confirmed the flu virus is the Type A H5N1 strain, which has been ravaging bird populations around the globe for several years. The explosive ongoing spread of the virus has led to many spillover events into mammals, making epidemiologists anxious that the virus could adapt to spread widely in humans.
Mozilla's Monitor Plus, a service launched by the privacy-minded tech firm in February, notes on its pitch page that there is "a $240 billion industry of data brokers selling your private information for profit" and that its offering can "take back your privacy."
Mozilla's most recent move to protect privacy has been to cut out one of the key providers of Monitor Plus' people-search protections, Onerep. That comes after reporting from security reporter Brian Krebs, who uncovered Onerep CEO and founder Dimitri Shelest as the founder of "dozens of people-search services since 2010," including one, Nuwber, that still sells the very kind of "background reports" that Monitor Plus seeks to curb.
Shelest told Krebs in a statement (PDF) that he did have an ownership stake in Nuwber, but that Nuwber has "zero cross-over or information-sharing with Onerep" and that he no longer operates any other people-search sites. Shelest admitted the bad look but said that his experience with people search gave Onerep "the best tech and team in the space."
Swen Vincke, director of the colossal entity that is Baldur's Gate 3, is not leaving the door open to future expansions of that already fully packed game.
At this week's Game Developer's Conference (GDC), Vincke made it clear during a talk and in interviews that Larian Studios is not going to make any major new content for Baldur's Gate 3 (BG3)—nor start work on Baldur's Gate 4, nor make anything, really, inside the framework of Dungeons & Dragons' Fifth Edition (5e).
Not that Vincke or his team are bitter. Their hearts just aren't in it. They had actually started work on BG3 downloadable content and gave some thought to Baldur's Gate 4, Vincke told IGN. "But we hadn’t really had closure on BG3 yet and just to jump forward on something new felt wrong." On top of that, the team had new ideas that didn't fit D&D 5e, which "is not an easy system to put into a video game," Vincke said.
Welcome to Edition 6.36 of the Rocket Report! SpaceX wants to launch the next Starship test flight as soon as early May, the company's president and chief operating officer said this week. The third Starship test flight last week went well enough that the Federal Aviation Administration—yes, the FAA, the target of many SpaceX fans' frustrations—anticipates a simpler investigation and launch licensing process than SpaceX went through before its previous Starship flights. However, it looks like we'll have to wait a little longer for Starship to start launching real satellites.

Starship could threaten small launch providers. Officials from several companies operating or developing small satellite launch vehicles are worried that SpaceX's giant Starship rocket could have a big impact on their marketability, Space News reports. Starship's ability to haul more than 100 metric tons of payload mass into low-Earth orbit will be attractive not just for customers with heavy satellites but also for those with smaller spacecraft. Aggregating numerous smallsats on Starship will mean lower prices than dedicated small satellite launch companies can offer and could encourage customers to build larger satellites with cheaper parts, further eroding business opportunities for small launch providers.
La voiture électrique qui se met à jour autant qu'un ordinateur ou un smartphone est aujourd'hui une réalité. À première vue, c'est une avancée utile, puisque le véhicule s'améliore au fil du temps. Mais est-ce si important d'avoir des mises à jour à distance en 2024 ?
Oh my god !
Voici une bien mauvaise nouvelle pour les utilisateurs de Linux que nous sommes ! Un malware baptisé NerbianRAT sévit dans la nature depuis au moins 2 ans et il vient juste d’être identifié. Cette saleté est capable de voler vos identifiants en exploitant des failles de sécurité récemment corrigées.
C’est la boîte de sécu Checkpoint Research qui a révélé l’existence de cette variante Linux de NerbianRAT. D’après eux, c’est un groupe de cybercriminels nommé « Magnet Goblin » qui est derrière tout ça. Et leur technique est bien vicieuse : ils exploitent des vulnérabilités à peine patchées (les fameux « 1-day ») en rétro-ingéniérant les mises à jour de sécurité. Comme ça, ils peuvent cibler les machines pas encore à jour. Malin !
En plus de NerbianRAT, Checkpoint a aussi découvert un autre malware appelé MiniNerbian. C’est une version allégée utilisée pour backdoorer les serveurs e-commerce Magento et les transformer en serveurs de commande et contrôle pour le botnet NerbianRAT.
Mais le plus inquiétant c’est que Magnet Goblin est très réactif pour s’accaparer les dernières vulnérabilités 1-day et déployer ses saloperies comme NerbianRAT et MiniNerbian. Ça leur permet d’infecter des machines jusqu’ici épargnés comme les appareils qui se trouvent en périphérie de réseau comme le matériel IoT.
Checkpoint est tombé sur NerbianRAT en analysant les attaques récentes qui exploitent des failles critiques dans Ivanti Secure Connect. Dans le passé, Magnet Goblin a aussi exploité des 1-day dans Magento, Qlink Sense et possiblement Apache ActiveMQ pour propager son malware.
Les chercheurs ont trouvé cette variante Linux de NerbianRAT sur des serveurs compromis contrôlés par Magnet Goblin, avec des URLs du style :
http://94.156.71[.]115/lxrt
http://91.92.240[.]113/aparche2
http://45.9.149[.]215/aparche2
C’est pas tout ! Magnet Goblin déploie aussi une version modifiée d’un autre malware voleur d’infos appelé WarpWire. D’après la boîte Mandiant, cette variante engrange des identifiants VPN qu’elle expédie ensuite sur un serveur du domaine miltonhouse[.]nl
.
Contrairement à sa version Windows qui est bien obfusquée, NerbianRAT Linux se protège à peine. Son code contient même des infos de debug qui permettent aux chercheurs de voir des trucs comme les noms de fonctions et de variables. Du beau travail…
Alors les amis linuxiens, méfiance ! Même si on se sent à l’abri avec notre machot, faut bien garder à l’esprit qu’aucun OS n’est invulnérable. La sécurité c’est aussi une histoire de comportement. Pensez à mettre régulièrement à jour vos machines, évitez les sites et les programmes louches, et utilisez vos neurones.
Un petit scan antivirus de temps en temps, ça peut pas faire de mal non plus. Et puis au pire, si vous chopez NerbianRAT, dites-vous que vous aurez participé bien malgré vous à une opération de recherche collaborative via VirusTotal 😉
Je vous laisse méditer là-dessus. En attendant portez-vous bien, pensez à éteindre la lumière en partant et que la Force soit avec vous !
Un lancement à la façon Keynote d'Apple suffira-t-il à relancer la machine ? Rivian devait uniquement présenter le nouveau modèle de SUV R2, le 7 mars. Son patron a aussi créé la surprise en présentant le R3 et le R3X.
Today in California, Rivian CEO and founder RJ Scaringe unveiled new additions to the electric vehicle startup's model lineup. Details of the new R2 had leaked earlier this week, although not entirely accurately—the new smaller EV will start at $45,000 (not $47,000) when it goes on sale in 2026.
At first glance of the R2, you might be excused for thinking you're looking at a Rivian R1S, for both SUVs share a lot of styling details—not just Rivian's distinctive daylight running lights but also the overall shape of the vehicle. But the new car is shorter in both length (by 15.7 inches/400 mm) and height, and only offers two rows of seating, not three.
Convenience improvements include a pair of gloveboxes under the dashboard and a flashlight that's stored in the door. At the back, the glass rear window can drop down to allow access to the cargo area. Both rows of seats fold flat, in case you want to camp in your car.
The European Commission (EC) has sided with Spotify, fining Apple nearly $2 billion for abusive App Store restrictions on developers that it found violated antitrust laws by degrading music streaming apps (other than Apple Music) and spiking prices.
"Apple applied restrictions on app developers preventing them from informing iOS users about alternative and cheaper music subscription services available outside of the app (‘anti-steering provisions')," the EC found.
"This is illegal under EU antitrust rules" and harms consumers "who cannot make informed and effective decisions on where and how to purchase music streaming subscriptions for use on their device," the EC said.
After 10 years of development, multiple changes in direction and leadership, and a plethora of leaks, Apple has reportedly ended work on its electric car project. According to a report in Bloomberg, the company is shifting some of the staff to work on generative AI projects within the company and planning layoffs for some others.
Internally dubbed Project Titan, the long-in-development car would have ideally had a luxurious, limo-like interior, robust self-driving capabilities, and at least a $100,000 price tag. However, the ambition of the project was drawn down with time. For example, it was once planned to have Level 4 self-driving capabilities, but that was scaled back to Level 2+.
Delays had pushed the car (on which work initially began way back in 2014) to a target release date of 2028. Now it won't be released at all.
American pedestrians were at slightly less risk of being killed by a car last year. The Governors Highway Safety Association has just published a preliminary analysis of road safety data for the first half of 2023, and it has found a "modest" reduction in pedestrian fatalities, which have been all too high in recent years.
As with last year's study, the GHSA found some states were much safer than others. In fact, 29 states and the District of Columbia recorded declines in the number of pedestrian traffic deaths for the first half of 2023, with Vermont recording no pedestrian deaths at all.
In total, the GHSA estimates that 3,373 pedestrians died on US roads between January and June 2023, which it says is a 4 percent decrease compared to the first six months of 2022. However, the report points out that even though this year saw a small decline, the number of pedestrian deaths for the first half of 2023 is 14 percent higher than the same time period in 2019.
Welcome to Edition 6.32 of the Rocket Report! I'm writing the report again this week as Eric Berger is in Washington, DC, to receive a well-earned honor, the 2024 Excellence in Commercial Space Journalism Award from the Commercial Spaceflight Federation. Cape Canaveral is the world's busiest spaceport, and this week, three leading US launch companies were active there. SpaceX launched another Falcon 9 rocket, and a few miles away, Blue Origin raised a New Glenn rocket on its launch pad for long-awaited ground testing. Nearby, United Launch Alliance began assembling an Atlas V rocket for the first crew launch of Boeing's Starliner spacecraft in April. 2024 is shaping up to be a truly exciting year for the spaceflight community.

Astroscale inspector satellite launched by Rocket Lab. Astroscale, a well-capitalized Japanese startup, has launched a small satellite to do something that has never been done in space, Ars reports. This new spacecraft, delivered into orbit on February 18 by Rocket Lab, will approach a defunct upper stage from a Japanese H-IIA rocket that has been circling Earth for more than 15 years. Over the next few months, the satellite will try to move within arm's reach of the rocket, taking pictures and performing complicated maneuvers to move around the bus-size H-IIA upper stage as it moves around the planet at nearly 5 miles per second (7.6 km/s).
Depuis la sortie de l'épisode IX de Star Wars, des efforts sont visibles de la part de Lucasfilm pour tenter de justifier, cinq ans plus tard, le retour de Palpatine. C'était vrai avec la série The Mandalorian. C'est encore le cas avec The Bad Batch.
One of the largest launch pads at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station will become vacant later this year after the final flight of United Launch Alliance's Delta IV Heavy rocket. SpaceX is looking to make the sprawling facility a new home for the Starship launch vehicle.
The environmental review for SpaceX's proposal to take over Space Launch Complex 37 (SLC-37) at Cape Canaveral is getting underway now, with three in-person public meetings and one virtual meeting scheduled for March to collect comments from local residents, according to a new website describing the plan.
Then, federal agencies, led by the Department of the Air Force, will develop an environmental impact statement to evaluate how Starship launch and landing operations will affect the land, air, and water around SLC-37, which sits on Space Force property on the Atlantic coastline.
Welcome to Edition 6.31 of the Rocket Report! Photographers at Cape Canaveral, Florida, noticed a change to the spaceport's skyline this week. Blue Origin has erected a full-size simulator of its New Glenn rocket vertically on its launch pad for a series of fit checks and tests. Late last year, we reported Blue Origin was serious about getting the oft-delayed New Glenn rocket off the ground by the end of 2024. This is a good sign of progress toward that goal, but there's a long, long way to go. It was fun to watch preparations for the inaugural flights of a few other heavy-lift rockets in the last couple of years (Starship, SLS, and Vulcan). This year, it's New Glenn.

Russia launches a classified satellite. On February 9, Russia launched its first orbital mission of the year with the liftoff of a Soyuz-2-1v rocket from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome in the far north of the country. The two-stage rocket delivered a classified satellite into orbit for the Russian military, Anatoly Zak of RussianSpaceWeb.com reports. In keeping with the Russian military's naming convention, the satellite is known simply as Kosmos 2575, and there's little indication about what it will do in space, except for one key fact.
Btrfs, which stands for "Butter FS" or "B-tree FS," is a modern Linux file system. It was developed to overcome the limitations of older file systems like ext4 or ext3. Btrfs is an excellent choice for efficient storage management on multiple Hard Disk Drivers. It supports Linux file systems with snapshots, subvolumes, and built-in RAID-like capabilities that provide robust data protection. It is designed to handle huge file systems and file sizes. Btrfs incorporates checksumming and COW (Copy-on-write), making it more resilient to data corruption. The COW feature means changes are written to new locations instead of overwriting existing data, enhancing data protection and enabling snapshots. After installation, let us see how to install Btrfs support for Debian Linux 11 or 12 using the CLI.
In my case, the EC2 VM AMI is configured to use ext4 by default at AWS. However, I had to make changes since I needed to store files using EBS (Elastic Block Store) and Python code expected to see BTRFS. Hence, this quick tutorial.

GnuPG2 (or GPG2) is an open-source and free tool that implements the OpenPGP standard. Its primary purpose is to encrypt your sensitive information to protect it from unauthorized access. It also allows you to create digital signatures, guaranteeing that the data hasn't been tampered with while in transit. Many newly created Debian 11/12 cloud VMs and images may not have the gpg/gpg2 command installed. Thus, you will get an error that reads "-bash: gpg: command not found." Here is how to fix this error and install gnupg2 on a Debian Linux 11 or 12. Further, you will learn how to use the gpg command.

Russian forces are using Starlink terminals on the front line in Ukraine, according to the Ukrainian military, which said the adoption of Elon Musk’s satellite Internet service by Moscow’s troops was becoming “systemic.”
Ukraine’s GUR military intelligence unit said on Telegram on Sunday that radio intercepts confirmed the use of Starlink terminals by Russian units operating in the occupied Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine.
“Yes, there have been recorded cases of the Russian occupiers using these devices,” Andriy Yusov, a GUR officer, told RBC-Ukraine. “This is starting to take on a systemic nature.”
