Space‑based power systems are becoming one of the most decisive enablers of evolving orbital operations. Many national‑security missions rely on dependable energy in orbit, yet traditional rigid composite solar arrays remain slow to procure, expensive to scale, and difficult to adapt as needs evolve. Redwire's Extensible Low-Profile Solar Array (ELSA) was developed to address these challenges, providing an innovative design engineered to minimize stowed volume and mass while preserving performance, accelerating production, and reducing cost. Discover how flight proven heritage meets the next evolution of space power in Redwire's ELSA Mission Report 👉 #SpacePower# #SpaceTechnology# #NationalSecurity# #AerospaceInnovation#

TRAITOR: A former Stanford aerospace chief who helped oversee F-22 and F-35 engine development spent nearly a month training researchers at a blacklisted Chinese defense university!! Brian Cantwell chaired Stanford’s Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics and served for 14 years on the team reviewing the engines that power America’s most advanced fighters. In May and June 2025 he traveled to Beihang University under a Chinese foreign-expertise recruitment program. Beihang records show he gave six technical lectures, advised graduate students and research teams, toured laboratories, and discussed unpublished work. Beihang has been U.S.-blacklisted since 2001 because of its ties to China’s military and missile programs. America spent decades trying to keep sensitive aerospace knowledge out of that university. China simply invited the expert who helped build the engines. This is not academic exchange. It is a national-security failure that handed a key American technical mind to an institution the U.S. government itself has long treated as a threat. #ChinaThreat# #NationalSecurity#

Ocean Power Technologies (NYSE: OPTT) announced that three PowerBuoy® systems are now actively deployed off the California coast supporting US Department of Homeland Security maritime surveillance operations — marking a significant milestone in the company’s transition toward scaled offshore intelligence deployments. 🔹 All three PowerBuoy systems are simultaneously streaming real-time offshore data, including one operating in water depths exceeding 1,000 meters 🔹 The deployment integrates OPT’s AI-capable Merrows™ software suite with Anduril Industries’ Lattice command-and-control platform 🔹 Management described the shift from single deployments to coordinated offshore systems as a “paradigm shift” that expands opportunities across defense, offshore energy, and maritime security markets Read Peter Gastreich's full report for additional detail on OPT’s evolving recurring revenue model, offshore deployment strategy, backlog growth, and expanding defense and ISR opportunities. $OPTT #Maritime# #Defense# #AI# #Drones# #OceanTech# #NationalSecurity# #OffshoreEnergy# #NYSE# #SmallCaps# #WaterTowerResearch# @OceanPowerTech

America is UNDER ATTACK: The Pentagon just ordered America’s top universities to come clean about their deep ties to China, Russia, and Iran. Harvard, MIT, Georgetown, and 27 other schools must complete a full audit of academic, financial, and research partnerships with foreign entities of concern by August 31 or risk losing federal research funding. Harvard alone took more than $600 million from Chinese sources, more than any other U.S. university. Investigators found 140 research partnerships involving Chinese military-linked institutions, including universities under the People’s Liberation Army’s influence and the “Seven Sons of National Defense.” A Pentagon-funded weapons class at one Midwest university was taught in Mandarin to Chinese nationals. Dozens of researchers who worked on Pentagon projects later moved to Chinese military-linked roles. This is the classic communist infiltration playbook: buy access to American research, place people inside the labs, extract technology, and turn elite campuses into soft-power and espionage platforms. American universities have spent years taking Beijing’s money while claiming academic freedom. The bill is now coming due. The question is whether these schools will actually sever the dangerous relationships or just paper over them until the next grant cycle. #ChinaInfluence# #NationalSecurity#
