📦 Fermilab's quest for the fifth force, SpaceX introduces Bandwagon missions, Teslas have minds?
Chicago might become the hub for physics, as scientists believe they're on the verge of discovering a new force of nature. SpaceX's rideshare missions are reaching mid-inclination orbits, inviting customers to quite literally "hop" on the Bandwagon (yes, that's the actual name). And as usual, a post from Tesla's CEO on the former bird app, now known as X, leaves us in shock: Teslas do have some sort of “mind.” However, they won't be outsmarting us anytime soon.
