πŸš€ Apex raises $200M to scale satellite bus production capacity

Apex, the LA-based spacecraft company, just closed a $200 million Series D round led by Interlagos, pushing its valuation past $1 billion. The raise will supercharge its manufacturing, tech, and global reach.

πŸ”Έ Will use funds to expand production throughput and deepen technical capabilities
πŸ”Έ Also building out engineering teams, mission services, and new global sales channels
πŸ”Έ Co-founders Ian Cinnamon & Max Benassi bring experience from Synapse, SpaceX, and Astra; mission: reliable, standard satellite platforms for constellation scale
πŸ”Έ Apex claims a record: clean-sheet design to flight-ready satellite in under a year
πŸ”Έ Growth includes vertical integration (e.g. avionic, power, propulsion), expanding real estate (100,000+ ftΒ²) to boost output ~50% plus room for R&D and payload integration.

If Apex delivers, it could help shift the bottleneck in space from launches to spacecraft platforms β€” enabling more rapid and reliable constellation deployment worldwide.

πŸ” AI-guided cameras enable solo surgery, a step toward surgical automation

Surgeons in Chile have used an AI-guided camera (part of the MARS robot) to perform a gallbladder removal alone, without a human assistant. The camera tracks the surgeon’s tools and adjusts angles automatically.

πŸ”Έ Combines magnetic surgical instruments with software that dynamically adjusts angles and views no external camera operator needed.
πŸ”Έ First time this has been done on a real patient, not just in animals or simulations.
πŸ”Έ Part of broader efforts: Johns Hopkins and others have already done complicated surgeries on pigs using AI-guided systems.
πŸ”Έ The global surgical robot market is large and growing: ~$15.6B in 2024, projected to reach ~$64.4B by 2034.

We’re seeing tangible moves toward surgical automation with AI not just assisting but taking a more autonomous role. But questions remain: how reliably can these systems perform in diverse, high-risk settings, and how fast will regulatory, safety, and adoption hurdles be overcome?
