Federal Deputy Confirms Alliance With Leaders From Santa Catarina For WEG To Manufacture Oxygen Motors For The SpaceX Program Of The American Philanthropist

Santa Catarina takes flight in a literal way! WEG, a prestigious company located in the region, known for producing electro-electronic equipment, recently made public its involvement with SpaceX, the renowned aerospace company founded by Elon Musk. This collaboration agreement aims to take the engineering capabilities of Santa Catarina to new heights.

Motors For Oxygen Self-Production At SpaceX

According to WEG, SpaceX is undertaking the creation of its own Air Separation Unit. This initiative arises from the need for a significant amount of oxygen, a crucial ingredient for rocket fuel. To avoid exorbitant costs associated with third-party procurement, self-production of oxygen has emerged as a viable and economical solution.

Atlas Copco Gas and Process, globally recognized as one of the leading providers of air compressors, has been tasked with supplying the main compressor set for the air separation units. As an integral part of this project, WEG was chosen by Elon Musk and SpaceX to supply the motors that will power these air separation units.

While an average building in London or New York takes three years to be completed, in China a 26-story tower went up in five days with about 100 workers, and the global modular construction market already moves US$ 95 billion per year.

A Chinese factory in Guangdong is assembling a humanoid robot every 30 minutes while Tesla, Figure, and Boston Dynamics still struggle to deliver 10 thousand per year.

Australia installs giant concrete structures on the seabed 800 meters from the shore to create an ocean intake for desalination that will draw in saltwater and produce 30 million liters of drinking water per day.

Secret chamber sealed 4,500 years ago found in the Pyramid of Khufu, and Hawass announces its opening to the world in 2026

A public school student single-handedly created a machine capable of treating water for up to 50 people using only solar energy. It was awarded third place at one of the most important science fairs in the world.

Germany installed vertical solar panels on a lake in Bavaria, and the result broke conventional logic: instead of producing energy at midday peak, the plant generates more early in the morning and in the evening, exactly when families turn on appliances and factories are in full swing.

While communities suffer from water scarcity and the advancing desert, women in Morocco use nets high up in the mountains to trap fog droplets, fill reservoirs, and transport drinking water through more than 10 km of piping.

Between Alaska and Siberia, there is an abyss on the sea floor, a submarine trench 2,600 meters deep that surpasses the Grand Canyon in vertical scale and hosts one of the rarest ecosystems on the planet.

End of separate pressure cooker, air fryer, and electric pot? Ninja Foodi MAX SmartLid combines 15 functions, three cooking modes, and a smart lid to cook, fry, bake, and steam in the same device.

It seems like something out of a movie, but it’s real: how technology uses invisible sound waves to extinguish small fires without water, without chemicals, and without destroying household furniture.

Chinese boats accelerate the collapse of fishing in Senegal, cause an annual loss of US$ 300 million, affect 1.3 million people, and help transform West Africa into the epicenter of 40% of the planet’s illegal trawling.

Super airplane Phantom 3500 advances towards its first flight, promising 60% lower fuel consumption, a windowless cabin, operation above 51,000 feet, technology validated by DARPA, and a billion-dollar order of 300 jets before certification.
