Spotify billionaire’s body scan startup has come to America
THE SO WHAT
Full-body scanning as a consumer service compresses diagnostics into a recurring data stream—who owns and analyzes that stream becomes the real business. Health and wellness operators should plan for patients arriving with third-party scans and expectations of AI-driven interpretation.

Deep & Emerging TechESA’s Juice just used Earth as a slingshot to Jupiter
Gravity assists are a reminder that clever trajectory design can substitute for raw propulsion—planning and timing can be as valuable as hardware. For space and deep-tech operators, invest in simulation and mission design talent as aggressively as you do in engines and materials.
Deep & Emerging TechUS lawmakers introduce the Ban Flock Act to block surveillance camera use
Pushback on Flock-style ALPR networks shows that automated surveillance is moving from a technical question to a political one. If your product touches public safety or computer vision in public spaces, build for opt-outs, auditability, and clear governance or expect regulatory friction.
Deep & Emerging TechChang’e-6 lunar soil contains a surprising magnetic time capsule
A new magnetic mineral in Chang’e-6 samples gives scientists a better archive of the Moon’s—and by extension Earth’s—magnetic history. For space and sensing startups, this is a nudge that novel materials and in-situ resources may unlock new data products, not just construction feedstock.
Deep & Emerging TechPowerful simulations reveal how the first stars changed the universe
Ultra-detailed cosmological simulations like MEGATRON show how far high-performance computing and modeling have come—turning ancient starlight into a constrained dataset. The same toolchain mindset applies in industry: invest in simulation fidelity where real-world experimentation is slow or impossible.
