Nim
Nim is a statically typed compiled systems programming language. It combines successful concepts from mature languages like Python, Ada and Modula. Its design focuses on efficiency, expressiveness, and elegance (in that order of priority).
Cython has long been an interesting alternative here - a gradually typed amalgam of Python & C that lets you write/compile Python extension modules without needing to learn much of the CPython API. You can even use --embed to compile your whole script file and -X infer_types.verbose=True to let you know where types are dynamic/implicit rather than declared. Several big core packages like scipy use this as well.
Personally, I prefer Nim [2] which has more compile-time meta-programming support, is strongly typed from the outset, and has a lot of syntactic flexibility like UFCS, and many other goodies.
