Placement is the whole product.
Rocket Lab put Synspective's twelfth radar satellite into an exact 572km orbit on 18 September, its 96th Electron flight and its seventeenth of 2026. A shared ride would have been cheaper and would have broken the thing the constellation sells.

Most of the push is borrowed.
On 30 September, ESA's Juice spacecraft swings past Earth to steal a little of the planet's momentum on its way to Jupiter. It carries over three tonnes of propellant and still cannot get there on its own. That trade, less fuel in exchange for a hard appointment, is one we make in software every week.

Microsoft has put an agent sandbox into Windows itself. The interesting part is not the feature, it is that the question it answers, what is this thing allowed to touch, is the question we have been answering by hand on every AI system we ship.
