Why are we still using endurance as a metric for UAVs?
Every other vehicle industry uses range.
If cars were optimized for endurance, we would all drive at 20mph on the highway.

11/ Founded by @mathieujohnsson, @Marble_Aero produces breakthrough unmanned electric aircraft for the drone industry. They are developing a metal 3D printed version of their MRB5 aircraft, making their drones more robust and better at dissipating heat. Marble will deploy MRB5 to enhance biodiversity observation capabilities in UK waters, in partnership with the UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.
We're #hiring aircraft / system / software / computer vision engineers in #Bristol
You'll deploy to fight illegal fishing in two countries by end of year, and design second iteration of system.
We're hiring- if you want to build unmanned aircraft systems - hardware and software - to protect the oceans, get in touch!

New paper out today doi.org/10.3389/fmars.2021.6… examining why illegal fishing happens in remote, large-scale Marine Protected Areas. We identify the importance of #sharks and #socialnetworks in driving #IUU @ZSLMarine @ExeterMarine @OceanswellOrg @Marine_Science

People worry about how much land we'd need to supply the US with clean energy. Well, @elonmusk and I have independently calculated it and we both come up with something roughly comparable to the area we currently use for maple syrup or golf. A square about 100-120 miles per side.
This map gives you a rough sense of all the ways U.S. land is used. Much of U.S. land serves specific purposes, such as the 2 million acres devoted to golf courses or the 3 million acres for airports.bloom.bg/37XnVYh
