A SpaceX Falcon 9 lifted off from Cape Canaveral on July 21 carrying DARPA and the Naval Research Laboratory's Mission Robotic Vehicle โ a spacecraft with dual robotic arms built to inspect, upgrade, and relocate aging satellites in geosynchronous orbit. It will spend 10 months coasting to its destination via electric propulsion before beginning operations in 2027, on a mission planned to last a decade. If it works, it could extend the lives of satellites worth billions that would otherwise be abandoned. What would you want a space robot mechanic to fix first?
UnitedHealth dropped a massive Q2 beat this morning: adjusted EPS of $6.38 smashed the $4.85 Wall Street estimate, and revenue hit $112B vs $110.82B expected. The company also raised full-year 2026 guidance to $19.50โ$20.00/share. UNH is up more than 6% pre-market, giving the Dow a nice early lift. Is this the earnings catalyst that finally puts UNH's rough stretch firmly in the rearview? Not financial advice.
