    TESLA TARGETS JUNE 12 LAUNCH OF ROBOTAXI SERVICE IN AUSTIN (3 MINUTE
    READ) [5]

    Tesla plans to launch its long-awaited robotaxi service in Austin on
    June 12. The date has only been discussed internally and could still
    change. The company this week operated a test vehicle on public roads
    in Austin with no one in the driver's seat for the first time. Elon
    Musk said earlier this month that Tesla would officially roll out a
    fleet of about 10 self-driving robotaxis in Austin before expanding to
    a thousand vehicles within a few months.

    SCIENCE & FUTURISTIC TECHNOLOGY

    CHINA TO VISIT EARTH'S `QUASI-MOON' AND BRING A CHUNK OF IT BACK
    HOME (3 MINUTE READ) [7]

    China's National Space Agency has launched an asteroid sample mission
    aimed at Asteroid 2016HO3, aka 469219 Kamo¨oalewa, which orbits the
    Sun. The Tianwen 2 probe rode a Long March 3B rocket into orbit at
    1:31 Thursday morning. 2016HO3 is estimated to have a diameter of 40
    to 100 meters. It is an attractive target for exploration because it
    can be reached by a spacecraft traveling at a modest 7 kilometers per
    second. The probe will reach the asteroid in about a year and then
    orbit it for a while before landing and attempting to retrieve around
    100 grams of material.

    There is no timeline for shipping these robots, but the company
    anticipates shipping the first few units by the end of the year. The
    waitlist is currently open. A video of HopeJR being demonstrated at an
    event is available in the article.

    [12]

    Exceptional startups do things very differently from the median
    startup. This post looks at habits that these startups tend to have. Exceptional startups beat and raise expectations, recruit top talent obsessively, ship product incredibly fast, and obsess over product

    more. AI models can swallow entire fields overnight. This makes it
    more important to have wisdom. This article looks at how to develop

    lead from a deeper place of wisdom.
