Intuitive Machines does not expect Athena to recharge, says mission concluded

Yahoo10-03-2025
Intuitive Machines (LUNR) has announced the IM-2 mission lunar lander, Athena, landed 250 meters from its intended landing site in the Mons Mouton region of the lunar south pole, inside of a crater. 'This was the southernmost lunar landing and surface operations ever achieved. Images downlinked from Athena on the lunar surface confirmed that Athena was on her side. After landing, mission controllers were able to accelerate several program and payload milestones, including NASA's PRIME-1 suite, before the lander's batteries depleted. With the direction of the sun, the orientation of the solar panels, and extreme cold temperatures in the crater, Intuitive Machines does not expect Athena to recharge. The mission has concluded and teams are continuing to assess the data collected throughout the mission. This southern pole region is lit by harsh sun angles and limited direct communication with the Earth. This area has been avoided due to its rugged terrain and Intuitive Machines believes the insights and achievements from IM-2 will open this region for further space exploration,' the company stated.

Consulting is changing. Here are 4 unlikely ways the Big Four are reinventing themselves to seem less 'stodgy.'

This year, Deloitte became the first of the Big Four consulting and accountancy firms to launch a satellite into space. No, really. You may know Deloitte, EY, PwC, and KPMG for consulting, accounting, audit, and tax, which embed them in some of the world's biggest organizations and generate billions in annual revenue for each firm. But space, advertising, and venture capital are among the buzzier projects they've been developing. These ventures are a way for the companies to show they are adapting to industry changes, Tom Rodenhauser, managing director of the consulting industry research firm Kennedy Intelligence, told Business Insider. They "demonstrate their innovation and creativity" while distancing the Big Four from their "stodgy audit reputation," he added. They also boost their profiles and serve as a recruitment tool, he said. The initiatives also bring consulting arms closer to tech companies and AI innovators, Rodenhauser said, as the firms pin their future success on the technology. "I do expect more of these as consulting becomes even more technical," he added. Here are some Big Four's ventures that may not come to mind when you picture accountants and consultants. EY Studio+ Your creative ad campaign isn't typically led by a team of corporate suits, but EY has acquired 37 agencies and firms specializing in design, marketing, and customer experience since 2014. In June, it announced that it was launching a business unit focused on marketing and sales, called EY Studio+. The division launched with 7,000 employees, and EY said it plans to expand it by 10% to 20% in the following year. EY was playing catch-up with rivals Deloitte, which has offered marketing solutions through Deloitte Digital since 2012, and Accenture, which created Accenture Song in 2022. EY Studio+ offers design, marketing, sales, customer service, and customer technology services. Its website features case studies that set out how it can advise clients on the back-office systems and strategies of marketing departments — as with its existing consulting work — but also take the lead in designing customer experiences. Laurence Buchanan, global leader of EY Studio+, told Business Insider, that they were targeting chief marketing officers who were "under increasing pressure to re-imagine their customer experience and business models" because of AI. When it launched the studio, EY said that the new unit marks "a significant milestone" in CEO Janet Truncale's"All in" strategy to reshape the firm to tackle client "issues that are more complex and inter-connected than ever before." Deloitte-1 Satellite Deloitte — the largest of the Big Four, by annual revenue and employee numbers — has had a space division since April 2023 and launched a satellite in March in collaboration with SpaceX and Spire, a space data company. "We're driving space-enabled innovation and shaping what's possible for industries both on and off this planet," Jason Girzadas, CEO of Deloitte US, said in a LinkedIn post. In July, Deloitte announced that it had built and installed a cyber defense system on its satellite, called "silent shield." Brett Loubert, leader of Deloitte's US space practice, said it would help clients protect their space-based assets and "understand and manage the risks to their missions, strengthen their cyber resiliency and protect against evolving cyber threats." KPMG and Hippocratic AI Like the rest of the Big Four, KPMG has long had healthcare organizations among its advisory clients, but it's recently moved to direct collaborations with healthtech companies. The industry is booming, and in July, KPMG announced it was working with Hippocratic AI to deploy teams of medical AI agents. The AI agents are designed to address backlogs in healthcare systems by conducting "non-diagnostic patient-facing clinical tasks," KPMG said in a press release. Hippocratic AI developed the agents, while KPMG's role is to analyse and improve operations, upskill care professionals, and plan for the expansion of AI "across the entire care continuum." PwC Raise | Ventures PwC has three core lines of business — assurance, advisory, and tax. But the firm has also developed its own venture capital division called PwC Raise | Ventures, which operates in the UK. Raise | Ventures supports rapidly growing startups seeking Series A funding as well as larger businesses looking for further investment to grow, per PwC's website. An online guide says it can help founders improve pitch decks, introduce them to a network of investors, and help with due diligence. Its website tells prospective clients that working with PwC Raise | Ventures will "increase the probability of achieving a successful fundraise on good terms."

Amazon (AMZN) Expands Same-Day Grocery Delivery, Escalating Retail Delivery Battle

Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) is one of the best growth stocks to buy according to analysts. Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) announced on August 13 that it will be expanding its same-day delivery service to include fresh and frozen grocery items for its Prime members. The company did not reveal the cities included in the rollout. Ken Wolter / Starting this week, Prime subscribers in select cities will be able to receive items such as strawberries, milk, meats, and frozen dinners within hours of placing an order. This will intensify competition for same-day deliveries for perishable items, with other retail giants like Walmart. What is likely to work in the e-commerce giant's favor is its improving logistics and Whole Foods' infrastructure. Same-day grocery delivery is a massive battleground in e-commerce, with customers spoiled for choice and expecting faster delivery. The tech behemoth has already been offering grocery delivery through its Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods platforms. However, the latest move indicates a deeper commitment by the company to improve its share in the perishable item segment. If the company can capture a share of the same-day delivery for perishable items and scale up, its impact in the grocery sector is likely to grow; it is likely to put pressure on the traditional grocers and delivery rivals, given Amazon's scale and delivery moat. While we acknowledge the potential of AMZN as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk. If you're looking for an extremely undervalued AI stock that also stands to benefit significantly from Trump-era tariffs and the onshoring trend, see our free report on the best short-term AI stock.
