Open-source wind or solar power simulation
Also if you want to work on wind based simulation maybe this project might interest you https://github.com/orbitersim/orbiter The flight dynamic model is not super accurate and the author is not using the off the shelf library like jsbsim so a lot of improvements are possible.

Think you guys might appreciate this :)
Still the same, but now it's gone open source, hoping for a quicker development by the community now :)

PSA: Orbiter vs "OpenOrbiter"
"OpenOrbiter" is a misnomer, because Orbiter is already open and under MIT. I want everyone to know and understand that the real Orbiter repo, with commits being directly made by the good doctor is this one: https://github.com/orbitersim/orbiter

Games I can contribute too.
If you like space there is vega strike , pioneer and orbiter.
- Is there an explanation of the Orbiter codebase, like what part is the "main" where it all starts kind of thing?
- Orbiter launcher seems to have low text quality?

As a sidenote, it looks like the author released orbiter on GitHub: https://github.com/orbitersim/orbiter

NY Times Rides in Waymo Robotaxis in SF
Reminds me that SpaceX has now landed rocket boosters successfully over 200 times. Landing just a single rocket was huge news a few years ago.
The US is launching things into space about 20 times as frequently compared to 10 years ago [1]. Now, most rocket launches don't make mainstream news—I only keep up with things by subscribing to a niche newsletter [2].

Jeff Bezos announces $3.4B NASA contract to land astronauts on lunar surface
NASA needs multiple lander options; putting all their cards on a lunar Starship landing was always a bit ridiculous, even if it seems reasonably likely to happen. So if you want the Artemis program to actually happen, this is likely a good thing. However, with congress in a deadlock around the debt ceiling, and SLS costing $4B per launch, this is only going to add to Artemis's serious funding challenges.
If you're interested in the space industry in general, I'll cover this more next week in the weekly Orbital Index newsletter (https://orbitalindex.com) which I co-author with blach.
